Just sell the reliable daily and buy a maybe not reliable non smog vehicle? You don’t like modern luxuries right? Damn, if only it had !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

Anyone want to buy a 2006 GTO with 50k miles and a small paint issue for $20,000? Has a cam, headers, tune, LS7 clutch (new), new tires, and a book of services from me.

Can’t recommend this without t-tops.

I feel like it is not a Trans Am if it doesn’t have T-Tops.

I want T-Tops that at least look like they function dude. Even though we all know that don’t. And yes of course I want T-Tops!

Well, I mean, you can set the panels back in there. We can get a pack of generic weatherstrip to glue in there, a couple of hardware store latches, no one will never know it’s not OEM 70's GM shit.

Thats not a 75, thats an 80 or 81 with a 77-78 front clip, also major league CP both on price and mods. looks like a factory four speed car though, so a little rare I guess.

Sorry dude.

Well it did look off, not like I was going to buy it anyway, but thank you for the info.

Wow you are right, it is an 80ish with a 77-78 clip and written as a 75... Morons

All I want is a 77-78 wish a 4 speed and a 400 if it is a Trans Am, but my dream Firebird is a 1967 400 HO 4-Speed with factory air in Verdoro Green

I’m kinda split as to what I am going to do with mine ( in like 10 years when I have the money lol), either gonna keep it stock with the 403/3 speed auto or swap in a 400 with a TKO 5 speed. The crap motor is growing on me like a fungus. Think it’s going to depend on how cheaply I can get a real poncho motor. I got mine in the color and year (but not condition obviously) that I wanted it in.

depending on rust, that might be a better buy price wise believe it or not.

07/07/2017 at 15:28

Kinja'd!!!1

I 100% agree the 71 is a better deal than the 80"75"

I like your car. A proper 400 with a TKO would be awesome!

So I can have a backup set. ;) Plus have I won’t have to worry about finding another set if mine break....

This is owned by my neighbor’s son. It’s an auto though and I don’t know if it has air. Yes, I know that’s not Verdoro Green.

Fine depo tails then, because they look similar to the 06 ones and spyder headlights. Only if you sell the GTO though. I will order them and send them to your house, and pay have you ship the stockers to me. ;)


Kinja'd!!! CaptDale - is secretly British > AfromanGTO
07/07/2017 at 18:40

Kinja'd!!!1

I doubt I would sell it, but idk. I am kind of considering it. And then buying a better one eventually down the road... I have so much I want to do to it, but just can’t afford to ,and the payments are really sticking it to me.

I feel you on that one bud. Why not keep it and just building your credit up, and little by little make it perfect. :)

Idk, because I still owe considerably less than it is worth, but I won’t be done paying it back till 3/1/2020.... It is just so long from now

Crack pipe with the oil leak. But for some reason Vacaville / Fairfield always has crackpipe offerings. Except for zapS .sM, who was from Fairfield. But that was Lavalife and not Craigslist.

Maybe put in what you want and preserve the original or maybe sell to a collector who already has a T/A and wants a spare.

Have to disagree with you on that one. You have been watching the movies too much. Talk about rust and leaks.

Either way I win. It’s never going to be a concourse car anyhow.

Does not look like a Pontiac hood. Looks like a Chevy hood.

It is a Pontiac hood with the Corvette L88 scoop. Not uncommon to put on Camaros and Firebirds
