Default FS: 1998 Firebird Formula $2500 Needs Trans

Year: 1998
Make: Pontiac
Model: Firebird
Price: $2500
Mileage: 96999
Private or Dealer Listing: Private Listing
Location (State): NY
Color: Black
Transmission: Automatic
Drivetrain: Rear Wheel Drive
LS Engine?: Car has LS engine

***** SOLD! *****

1998 Firebird Formula
LS1 motor
4l60e Transmission - 3-4 clutch band is gone. needs a rebuild.
4000 Stall, 2.4str - Fuddle Racing. I have a stock corvette converter I can include if buyer wants, had less than 500 miles on it when swapped.

Exterior:
Black
has scratches on driver and passenger side of car (car was keyed at old apartment)
Tttops
Anti glare blue tint on mirrors (factory option)
Chrome ABS wheels 16x8. Back tires are good, fronts have some dry rot, but good thread.

Interior:
Ebony
Leather
PA, PW, PL
Power drivers seat
Factory alarm
Monsoon stereo - Sail panel speakers need replacing

Upgrades:
Edelbrock Victor Racing Headers
Edelbrock ORY
Electric cutout with switch mounted where lighter was on auto console. (looks factory)
Hooker Catback
Z06 intake manifold
BBK 80mm TB
FPT 85mm lid
SLP 25% UD pulley
Racetronix Fuel Pump and wiring

Problems:
Transmission is toast. 3-4 clutch band is gone. Has 1st and 2nd gear, reverse.
When I first installed the headers they had Slip-On collectors which leaked like crazy causing lean bank 1 and 2 o2 codes to pop up. Before the transmission went I had the headers welded on which seemed to fix the issue.
Front tires have dry rot and should be replaced soon.
Paint has scratches from being keyed.
Dashboard has typical crack near the windshield

I'm being as straight forward as possible with this sale, the car needs some TLC but was and will be a fun and reliable car to drive. I just don't have the money to put into it due to some family issues, or else I would never let this car go. I've owned it for 6 years and loved every minute of it.

Since I have owned it, the car has never seen N2o, never been supercharged or turbo'd. Never had it on the track - never even had a set of DR's on it. I bought it 100% stock.

Motor runs perfect and car ran great up until the tranny went. Below is a video of the car running and picks of the outside and interior.

First $2500 takes it. Best way to reach me is through text 716-425-0519, second best is PM's.

If you really want the car at 2500, I could take a down payment now and hold the car for a short period of time seeing as how your local. I have a garage I can keep it in. If interested text or call for further details
