Built 98 Trans AM Vert Year: 1998
Make: Pontiac
Model: Trans Am
Price: $12000
Mileage: 73000
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (State): WI
Color: Silver
Transmission: Manual
Drivetrain: Rear Wheel Drive
Most of the modifications I put on around 60k. I also have a set of oem WS6 wheels with brand new tires that I can swap for the C5 DD wheels if someone wouldn't want those.
KBB stock in good condition is 8k and I figured 4k for the rest of everything else so I am looking to get $12k obo. Also open for trades but would want a trade plus cash as I will most likely be selling the traded car. I would prefer to not have to store this again over the winter but if I have to it isn't a big deal.
The car was originally white and the PO painted it silver. It was repainted oem silver but when the metallic red racing stripes were put on it, the clear coat had a small amount of red flake put in it. The interior is black leather and in great condition.
Only thing I would be keeping would be my superhawk hood (which would be replaced by a silver flat TA hood). I will leave the superhawk hood on the car if I get my asking price.
As far as things that I can think of that are the cons are:
-power door locks don't work (I am assuming this is a bcm issue)
-the rear window is separated from the top of the top (common for convertibles)
-The drivers seat has a tan trim piece that goes over the power seat adjuster instead of the black.
-the radio isn't mounted. Never really bothered me because I rarely use it but I just ziptied it so that it will stay in the slot.
-front bumper is cracked in the front and scraped on the bottom.
-passenger rear wheel has slight amount of curb rash, however hard to see without being close due to the machined finish of the wheels
-driver's side door sometimes catches the door bumper guard things on the front fender when opening the door.
The drivers seat bolster is NOT ripped. I replaced the passenger side window motor as it was wearing out.
Currently the car has a Moser 9" rear end with the supporting goodies that I can leave in for more $$.

bumpity. I assume this wont sell before I put it away for winter but who knows haha. I would have no hesitation driving this across the country if someone from farther away is worried about it making the journey. I've had it on road trips to Boston, Florida, and Tennessee

Maybe we should just trade each other so we make each feel like we made a sales move on the rigs.
