1995 Formula Firehawk (long) gotta sell Looking for an idea of what it is worth
For Sale: 1995 Pontiac Formula Firehawk #467 of approx. 712 Firehawks/Comp t/a’s made in 1995. According to Firehawk.org it is one of 53 white Firehawks made that year. Confirmed by SLP it is an original Firehawk, Has the ram air hood, 17” wheels, upgraded suspension. The car has 167051 miles on the Body. The paint shows almost 15 years of wear, the bumper cover is spidered, there are spots that the paint has been burned through, etc. It looks good from a distance. The interior is in good shape other than a couple of tears in the drivers seat. It is gray leather. The upper dash was replaced, power window works, a/c works. Tires have about 50% life left. Cd player
The Car runs excellent, Has a ton of power, shifts easily into every gear, and still manages to get 20+mpg on the highway as long as your are not to tough on the gas pedal.
Here are a list of things done to the vehicle (Approx. $6500+ in upgrades and new parts):
-The motor has been replaced with a rebuilt LT1 short block bored 40 over, crank turned.010, Forged pistons. New oil pump, timing chain etc. Approx. 2000 miles on motor.
-Lloyd Elliot Ported LE2 head and cam package (http://www.elliottsportworks.com/lt1.html) for more info.
-LS7 lifters
-patriot dual valve springs
-Comp pro magnum roller rockers 1.6 ratio
-7/16” rocker studs ARP
-Comp hardened pushrods, guideplates
-Ported intake, painted
-58mm Summit throttle body
-37lb Racetronix injectors
-Accel adj. fuel pressure reg.
-Taylor over the vale cover spark plug wire conversion
-New accel optispark
-Canton deep sump oil pan
-MSD digital 6 ignition box, Hypertech coil
-K&N air filter.
-New water pump, radiator
-new alternator
-drilled and slotted rotors-
-Hardened rear axles
-4.10 rear gears, diff cover aluminum with girdle
-Loudmouth 1 exhaust
-new ceramic stage 3 clutch, new hydraulics,
-Pacesetter long tube headers, painted with off road y-pipe
-New KYB shocks and struts
-power window motors both
-PCMforless tune
-Walbro 255lph fuel pump
I am probably forgetting a few things but a lot of new parts are on the car.
The Bad:
-The paint needs help, some burn marks, there is a little dent on the bottom behind drivers door, I had to repair the hood latch, the fiberglass was weak, repaired with metal plates, stronger than ever now.
-there are 2 tears in the drivers seat, and the frame fro the shifter boot is broken(common problem)
-power locks do not work, previous owner had alarm installed, then removed it, never took the time to figure out the locks.
-It needs new wheels, the wheels on the car have seen better days, they are bent, one leaks, causes a vibration when driving.
-It needs new springs, front and rear, no suspension work done other than the shocks and struts.
-The abs inop light is on, and the Brake light is on, does not affect the braking of the vehicle although I do not believe the ABS is working. These lights cam on when the gears in the rear were changed.
-The exhaust system was a take off from another vehicle, so it banged up, doesn’t look the greatest, but it works fine.
-Could benefit from a dyno tune.
Overall the car is complete, needs a little tlc to be perfect, but is very fast and loud.
Note: because of the performance mods, it will not pass sniffer emission tests.

TECH Junkie
You are selling a race car, not a Firehawk. With all that is done and the ton of mileage on the car there is ZERO rarity or collectible value as a Firehawk. I don't care if it is one of one, it is just too modded and worn. It has been said many times to never expect back more than 50% of what you have put into the car, especially in these times. Hopefully someone will have an actual price for you on what you can truly sell it for. Good luck!
