LS1TECH - Camaro and Firebird Forum Discussion - 1999 Formula Hardtop project needs finishing SOLD

Selling my car that I ordered new in February 1999. It is VERY low option. The only options selected were the MN6 manual transmission and the Eagle GSC tires. It is a rare Hard Top and has a cloth interior and manual adjust seats.

Car has sat for about 4 years. Injury and finances are making me move on. All it needs is some time and effort and a couple odds and ends to get back running. New owner will need to decide about intended use and Auto vs rebuild the 6 speed.
