Yep...took the plunge...even after saying to myself Id probably be better off with the Cadillac....but I found a car that I thought was a decent deal...drove to west palm beach to test it out...and made the deal....all within 5 minutes..
Sooooo what did I get...
Clue#1---GM
Clue#2---year 1990
Clue#3---LT1 Engine
Clue#4---FBody
yah, you probably guessed it....1990 Trans Am.....BUT....it has a 1994 Z28 LT1 with 60,000 on it and a built up 700R4 for the tranny.....and how much did I pay???..... $2600.......which I thought was a fantastic deal considering the condition it is in.....but yeah...Im definently going to repaint it even though it was done 5 yrs ago...the paint had the wrong primer and little bubbles are everywhere once you look at it from a couple feet away...
Ill have pics this weekend....doing brakes now...
Runs freakin awsome....tap the gas and the thing hauls ass....only thing is the speedo doesnt work...I have to figure out how to make it get the proper signal from the trans
SOO...no miata...needed power after all.....I wanted a back to basics type car without much luxury in it...but it had to be something special....I think this is it...brings back memories from our 84' we had with a 305ci back in the days.....
