Mileage: 139000

Location (State): NY
Color: Gray
Transmission: Manual

LS Engine?: Car has LS engine

I've rebuilt this car for the past three years to what it is today. The interior,exterior, suspension and drivetrain have all been upgraded or replaced with new. Looking to see if I can get my asking price of $13,500. I will not drop lower than this number. If you have any questions or request more pictures, please PM me. Thanks.

The Car:

1999 Pontiac Firebird Formula- V8-6 Speed- Currently with 139,xxx miles- I’ve put under 5k miles in 3 Years.
-Grey Leather Interior
-Power Windows and Locks
-T-Tops
-Cruise-Tilt- AC has been removed
-All lights and options currently working.
-20% tint
-Should be a solid 11 second car on Motor, 10 second car on spray.

Paint:
The car was prepped and painted by Kolorcraft Autobody here in Syracuse, NY in March of 2012. It was previously painted black and then a lighter shade of grey in 2010. The color is a 2012 CM Ashen Grey Metallic. It also has black shadowing in the hood vents, fog light areas and vents on the side. The Superhawk hood alone had 8 hours of prep before it was painted as it was still in gel coat when purchased. All of the door jams and hatch sills were painted and cleared as well. The engine bay was painted black to match the underside of the hood. It has not been washed since it was painted and has been quick detailed after each time it’s been driven. This work was just north of $4,000.00.

Motor-
Built by TBR Machine. All of these parts were purchased and installed in Late May of 2010.
Motor Details:
LS1 Aluminum Block with all brand new Federal Mogul cam, main and rod bearings. Bored .10 over. Brad Penn 10w-30 Oil since Rebuild.
Tick’s Polluter Cam- (24x/24x (.61x"/.61x") 112LSA
Scat Forged H-Beam Rods with ARP Bolts-
Mahle Pro-Pack Forged Pistons with new Mahle Rings
Low Mileage Ls6 Crank-(Rods, pistons and crank were all balanced during rebuild)
Lighted Ported and Polished 241 heads with 2.02/194 Valves, Patriot Gold .650 springs and brand new ARP head bolt kit. New GM MLS Head Gaskets.
New Milidon HV Oil Pump with new GM O-Ring -60 PSI oil Pressure.
Comp 7.400 Hardened Pushrods-Ls6 Intake with a BBK 80mm TB
MSD Wires with new NGK TR7IX plugs
42 lb Bosch Injectors-
255 Walbro intank Pump
SLP Lid with K&N Filter
New Oil Pressure Sensor
New Oil Pan, Waterpump, intake, rear cover, Rear Main and Valve Cover gaskets

Transmission-
Liberty Faceplated T56 (1-4). This trans broke a 2nd gear faceplate in early 2012 with me trying to power shift without a clutch for the 1st time. This did not turn out well with a SPEC 5 clutch.. All gears were sent back to Liberty to be magnafluxed and tested. We also replaced any worn out parts and it drives absolutely perfect. Along with the purchase price of trans at $2500.00 4 years ago, we did a $1000.00 refresh this spring. The trans has less than 500 miles on it. This trans is not for everyone as it’s not street friendly, but it by far the best high RPM shifting trans I’ve ever had driven.

Details on Trans:
300m-30 Spline Viper Output Shaft
Bronze Shift Forks
Billet Shift Dogs
Faceplating 1-4
All Gears and Shafts Heat Treated, Cryoed and Micronited.

It was not. The clutch is always used now. If it was a slipper clutch I could get away with it. Faceplated trannys should not be used without a clutch(Answer right from Liberty).

It's never been washed since it was painted, has a faceplated trans and big drag radials that don't handle in the rain. All depends on how much you can take.
