wonderbread Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 (edited) I am regrettably selling my 1998 Trans Am Convertible. I am asking $4000 OBO. The car does need the engine (bottom end/shortblock) replaced. Here is a rundown on the car: 1998 Trans Am Automatic Transmission 120K miles Midnight blue (Factory color, changes colors a bit in the sun) Top in perfect shape Factory Stereo Factory Chrome Wheels with decent tires New Walboro 255lph fuel pump new rear shocks Body in good shape, front bumper cover has some spider webbing. I have another one I can work a deal on that you can get painted and just swap them out after paint. Dark grey leather interior in good shape. All the car needs is a motor, I can even work a deal to find and install one for you. Long story about the motor but foreign material made its way through and cracked a liner. I really do not want to sell this car, but really need the money. I hope to sell by this weekend. In the meantime I am looking for a motor to put in it and will sell for $6500+ Please feel free to call or text 440-522-5486 for more info and pictures. I will accept reasonable offers. http://i1069.photobucket.com/albums/u478/lmxperformance/Photo0039.jpg http://i1069.photobucket.com/albums/u478/lmxperformance/Photo0034.jpg http://i1069.photobucket.com/albums/u478/lmxperformance/Photo0038.jpg Edited June 3, 2012 by wonderbread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chadz89GTA Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Get a 5.3l and just drive it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wonderbread Posted May 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 I would, but need the money out of it. I have 2 other projects I am working on now, no need for this thing. Though if it does not sell by this weekend I am putting a motor in it to sell it and get what I want/need out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbracing81 Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 Call IPS. They pulled a 5.7 out of a TA for a 404 upgrade. Maybe the customer is selling the stock motor for a good price. Here's the link to the thread about the car being upgraded. http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/showthread.php?t=103921 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbracing81 Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 Just don't expect it to be clean Who cares if its clean as long as it runs good and doesn't have a crack in a cylinder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wonderbread Posted June 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 Someone bring me $4000 this weekend, or at least get me a deposit and get something worked out and you get a hell of a deal. If it does not sell, I am pushing it in the garage and putting a motor in it. I have a motor lined up and waiting, it is a COMPLETE 98 take out with 98k includes everything from intake to oil pan, including wiring harness and coils for $1500 (It is at a local junkyard and even comes with a 90 day warranty). I really don't have the time to mess with the car, but need it gone and know running it will sell fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
