Open to hear what someone might be wanting to part with the gf needs a vehicle that isnt on its last legs. Ideal would be a chevy 1/2 ton older 350 auto because i have plenty of parts for them just in case but lmk what you got.

1997 Pontiac Firebird - Black - 125k miles.

- Auto trans
- T-Tops
- New all-season tires.
- New serpentine belt (8/09)
- New plugs & wires (8/09 worth the price alone (lol)
- New headlights (8/09)
- New headlight gears (8/09)
- New hood struts (8/09)
- Newer battery
- Newer exhaust
Fully cleaned & detailed interior by me.


That being said, needs new front rotors, easy job.
The check engine light is on. I got the codes looked up and they are for emissions.
Has a clunk in the rear end randomly, mostly when going uphill?

Car runs & drives though, I haven't had any problem starting it, even when it was sitting for over a month without being ran.

The body is not a show car, it has a 5-6" rust crack on the lower 1/4 panel by the wheelwell, has some scratches here and there... the usual for a 13yr old car.

Probably more new stuff that I can't think of.... but that's the rundown.

$1500 is the lowest I'll go, as the new parts alone are worth that much :P

Bought the firebird from Jeff (wikked) we went and looked at it tuesday night. The interior is emaculate, car runs and drives very well, no leaks or squeaks ...... it took some coaxing to get the gf to actually get on the thing to test it out :rolf but once she did she was very happy with it so I bought it. She never had anything even remotely this nice so she was very appreciative ;)
