Default FS: 1998 Pontiac Trans Am

I'm posting/selling this car for a buddy of mine. I will add pics as soon as I can.

Sebring Silver
Automatic (A4, 4 speed, 4L60E)
T-Tops
Leather
112,000 miles
2nd Owner
Garage kept
Well maintained with regular oil changes (Castrol 20W40 synthetic)
Freshly charged a/c with all new components
Tinted windows
K&N air filter
Ported & polished throttle body
MSD plug wires w/NGK TR-55 spark plugs (NEW)
Pacesetter long tube headers & y-pipe
Borla cat-back exhaust system
Thunder Racing T-Rak camshaft (231/235 .640”/.590”)
Patriot Gold dual spring kit
Thunder Racing chromoly pushrods (7.400”)
LS6 timing chain
Thunder Racing LS6 ported oil pump

The car has been down the 1/4 mile strip 3 times after the above modifications and ran a best of 12.3@110 with 100% humidity and only 355rwhp. I don't remember the DA that day, but it's definitely a 11 second car with the right weather. The only thing wrong with car is the CD player doesn’t work, shows E20 error. The car is located in Alvin, Tx.

Kelly Blue Book value $7,405
NADA average retail value $10,125
$7000+ in modifications
$11,500

Feel free to post or PM me with further questions or concerns.

Of course, stock '98 LS1 block that has never been rebuilt. I will post up more pics when I snap some of the car as he doesn't have any on hand.

It has not. The hood was painted of course because it's aftermarket.

Ok, I thought you were being a smartass and was about to ask what you were talking about, then I called my buddy. The roof was indeed painted, but that is it. Hood and roof. Thanks for good eye.

1.7 60 ft. 12.3 was with shitty weather too. It was the night that there was so much fog, they shut the track down. 355 rwhp is through a full exhaust, no cutout, stock pulley, LS1 intake, old style perimeter heads, etc. Again, cam, converter, gear, and exhaust is all the car has and it runs the numbers. I'm amazed how well the car runs for such few mods.

I'll let him know. It'll probably be around 6:30 pm, unless he's leaving out of here early. (we work at the same company)

He agreed to the deal we discussed last night, so if you're satisfied with the car after tonight, then it's yours.

I didn't get a chance yesterday to take any pics and I doubt the weather is going to hold up today to do so. As soon as I get a chance, I will post them. Sorry it's taking so long.

White 96LT1, what are you wanting to trade?
