Vehicle Detail

Hello! Don't let the miles fool you! This is an excellent car and does not drive anything like a 200K mile car! I see many Firebirds/trans ams that have really low miles and all that tells me is that they have not lived and brought much enjoyment to their drivers!! This car, even though it has 200K miles, is about 15 years old, so the miles average out to be just right. I am the 3rd owner, the first sold it around 100K, the second sold it at 200K. I have had it for over a year and have put around 7K. It was garaged it's whole life and looked amazing when I bought it. I do not have a garage fit for it, so my cats climb all over it, the trees pollinate on it, and the birds poop on it. I absolutely hate to see such a fine classic automobile getting trashed like that. So I am selling it. Also, my teenage daughter is fixing to start learning how to drive and she IS NOT learning on this car! This car runs strong! Sounds great! Good clutch, everything works! Cold AC, hot heater! No dents!! just a few scratches! front tires still showing good enough, but I recommend replacing rear tires soon. There are a few scratches where the idiot cats jumped on it and lost footing and scratched it up. They are all light scratches that can be buffed out, but I cannot spend that money just to have it get messed up right away. There is a crack in each door panel along the top of them. They are almost identical and no idea how they got there. Was like that when I bought it. There are no cracks on the dash, no tears in the seats. CD player works. I believe it is wired for a MP3 player or ipod or something. The previous owner was telling me about it but I am not into my music that much so I was not listening. The Formula has the 305 horsepower 5.7 350 V8 derived from the corvette!! It runs strong and sounds good. There are no modifications done to this car. All stock! There was one upgrade that the previous owner did and that was upgrade the cat converter to the 2001/2002 type that is supposed to be better. I took his word for it since he sounded like he knew what he was talking about. It just recently developed a power steering fluid leak. The power steering pump does not whine so I am assuming it is not the pump itself that is bad. However, I have not had it looked at professionally since it just started. One of the pulleys make a squeaky sound but not too loud. The service engine soon light recently came on and I had Auto Zone plug it up and it suggested an air pump electrical circuit fault, or blocked air system, or failed air pump. The amount of pollen that our trees are pouring out recently may have something to do with this. I decided to sell it and hopefully the new owner will be better able to keep this fine car up to the high standards that it deserves. This car is listed on local craigslist and will be available locally unless a bid is placed. Once a bid is placed here on eBay, I will not sell it locally outright, the sale will only be thru eBay at that point. So if you want this car, please bid early! I will answer all questions as soon as I can. I am not always near my email, but I will check it as often as I can. I will assist your shipping company as best as possible. I suggest USHIP.COM. please pay within 3 days of end of auction. Thank you!
