Default '95 Formula Roller

Automatic, but trans has been removed. In the process, I also removed the steering column, pedals, seats, console etc. All of these parts are included for you to reinstall, except the trans, and torque arm. No stereo or rear speakers. Floorpans had some crust, but no holes. I sanded the rust, neutralized it, then painted. Rust showing through again. Rear wheelwells had some rot. Wire brushed, chemically neutralized, painted, then used fiberglass mesh to cover holes. Put rubberized undercoating over that to blend it in. Car was a driver, you know? Paint shone nicely when I was done detailing it, needs to be cleaned again. Some scratches and small dents, but very presentable. Stock wheels. DS door sags slightly. LT1 always ran well, never gave me any trouble. Needs catback. Do a T56 swap or throw in another auto. Either way, you'll have a decent car for small money.

$1,800 firm. Thanks for looking.

Sale might have fallen through. Not sure yet, but hope to find out soon. If so, price drops to $1800 firm.

I should note that the torque arm actually is included, despite what the ad says above. I had thought the guy buying my T56 swap was going to take it, but he did not.

Also, when I removed the parts mentioned above, I carefully labeled the hardware for each part and put the pieces in individual sandwich bags. This will make it fairly easy for the new owner to put everything back together...much more so than if I had just tossed all the nuts and bolts into a coffee can or something!

A gentle bump for the day.
For another $200, I will include two complete green doors and the back 1/2 of a green '95 six cylinder Firebird. Car was sawzalled in half, so I have good quarters, wheelwells, and hatch. Rolls on donut spares, made easy to pull by torque arm. You can never have too many spare parts!

I'm going to go ahead and lower the price to $1500 firm. Not going any lower than that. I'll fix the car or make a coffee table out of it if it won't sell at that price. Bring cash, bring trailer, take home a cheap project that isn't a battered roach.
