Vehicle Detail
You are bidding on an ULTRA RARE '92 only one year color of Jamaica Yellow with Black interior Formula Firebird with a 5.7 liter engine and t-tops. The only way that you could get t-tops with a 350 engine in an F-body in '92 was in a Formula. According to compnine.com, there were only 11 Jamaica Yellow Formulas with 5.7 engines - 9 with t-tops and 2 hardtops. I have a copy of the original invoice from GM Archives, a clean CARFAX, and clean title in hand. This car has been in indoor storage since 2007 and has been driven very little. The previous owner installed new Fuzion ZRi tires, rebuilt or replaced the brakes as necessary, and replaced the water pump. I have owned this car for a little over a year and only have driven it for a few miles, but it starts, shifts and stops well from what I can tell with no trouble lights on. The interior of the car is VERY nice and has no fading and the dash is not cracked. The front seats had seat covers on them when I purchased the car that apparently had been on the seats for most of its life as there are no stains or wear spots on the seats. The stock radio is present and works, along with the electric antenna. The headlights go up and down as they should and the door close tightly. The factory N10 exhaust dual cats are still on the car, but the muffler has a hole in it and will need to be replaced. As can be seen in the photos, the car does have surface rust in a few areas on the exterior. There is also rust in the drivers rocker panel area below the door that will eventually require replacement if the new owner chooses to do a full restoration on the car, but is not an immediate requirement to enjoy the car now. I had plans to restore this car one day as I have one of the two hardtop JY 5.7 Formulas made in '92 so I would have a matching pair, but I have come to the realization that with family including small children and other cars that it would be a long time, if ever, before I would be able to do this car the justice it deserves. I just have other priorities now. This is a 7 day auction with a very low reserve for a rare car with three of the most desirable options (color, 5.7, and t-tops) that were offered in a third gen. Please contact me at (229) 392 7111 with any questions and I will answer them as thoroughly as possible. My name is Jason. I require a $500 deposit within 24 hours of auctions end. I will be glad to store the car for a couple of weeks or so for the new owner to arrange shipping or in person pickup after payment is made in full. Please check my impeccable feedback and bid with confidence!! On May-10-13 at 04:03:08 PDT, seller added the following information: The old, leaking exhaust system has been replaced with a 3" Hawks stainless steel Y-pipe and a muffler and tailpipes from a 2001 SS Camaro. The car now has a great sounding, muscular tone without being loud or offensive. After driving the car today for only the second time to the muffler shop and back, I made a few specific observations. The car starts quickly and drives well, the shifts are firm, it stops straight and does not wander all over the road. The oil pressure was at 50 psi, the voltage was at 13v and the water temp stayed in the normal range cruising through town. The transmission fluid is clean and red with no funny smells. The A/C does come on and all the fan speeds work fine, but I didn't hear the compressor come on. It could just be low on refrigerant as the compressor will not come on if it is too low, but I'm not sure. The drivers window does not work (almost certain it is the regulator, easy fix), but the passenger window is fine. The last thing I noticed is that the speedometer was not working, but I am reasonably sure it was when I drove the car home when it was delivered. I know these are small topics, but I want to be thorough in my description.
