LS Engine?: Car has LS engine

Unfortunately, I think it is time to let her go. I have owned her for over ten years and put less than 25,000 miles on her in that time. She does not get driven near enough which is why I am considering selling as she deserves to be on the road more.

The car is a 1998 Gold Trans Am (Automatic) with approximately 94,000 miles on it:
Built up transmission with tci 3500 stall
Hooker longtubes and offroad y pipe
MTI clear lid
3.73 gears in the rear end
Weld in sub-frame connectors
Boxed lower control arms
Lower control arm relocation brackets
Strut tower brace
160 degree thermostat
Slotted rotors
MSD Wires with heat sleeves


The car drives extremely strong with no mechanical issues at all. Just put in new plugs as well. A while back she was dyno tuned by Mike Norris. Last time I took her to the track which was when I was in high school she ran in the high twelves.

The interior is okay with a tear in the passenger side seat, but no cracks in the dash or anything.

Over the years I have replaced window motors and headlight motors.

The a/c does not work.

Things that could be sold with the car are an extra rear end and set of Mickey Thompson street slicks on stock rims.

If you weren't so far away I would make an offer. Just don't want to make the haul.

Thanks for the look, Reckless.

There are a lot of fun pit stops between South Florida and TX...

$6,000 for an LS1 Firebird in general with 94K miles is a good price....add in the fact that yours seems very well maintained, is a Trans am, and is a rare SGM color I am honestly quite confused how it has been on the market so long.

Is it just me or is the front bumper a darker gold than the rest of the car?

In my opinion I think the color just isn't desirable. I think a gold sports car would be harder to sell. Clean car though, don't get me wrong.

Good luck with the sale.

The color and condition are all the more desirable for me. Just no cash.

I am sure they have a following as well especially for how limited they are it would only take a few hundred people to like the color. My honest opinion is that Silver is by far the worst color option on all 4th Gen F-Bodys and all though there definitely isn't a premium for them they definitely sell.

I think it'd look sweet on some black Weld RTS'. I have a sister in Aventura that I haven't visited in awhile. Things that make you go hmmmm
