Vehicle Detail

***** (NO-RESERVE) ***** RARE 1985 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Sport Coupe and 87,149 original miles with a 305/5.0 litre Tuned-Port Injection engine with automatic trans, RARE WS-6 suspension package with 4-wheel disc brakes, cold A/C (upgraded), tilt wheel, POWER steering, brakes, windows, locks, mirrors, cruise control, factory AM/FM w/casette player & 5-band equalizer, original owners manual, RARE overhead console w/flashlight, which all work properly. This pampered, garage-kept, non-smoker car has lived its ENTIRE life in the Jacksonville area of N. Florida and has only had 3-owners, with many new OEM parts. This car is SHOW QUALITY and has won numerous 1st class trophies in its class with the local Pontiac Club Chapter with its last owner, and has never been abused or hot-rodded, original numbers matching drivetrain without any engine modifications. All the guages work & dash lights, properly, dash is PERFECT, headliner & rear speaker covers are FADED (as pictured) , but in perfect condition, all the seats are PERFECT w/o FADING (drivers seat bottom seam split, but can be easily fixed), carpet in great condition, console in great condition, all the door panels & interior plastic panels are PERFECT (as pictured). On a 1-10 scale the interior is a 9 for what has been previously mentioned. All the headlight motors, high & low beams, turn signals, interior lights, wind. wipers, brake & park lamps work properly. All the front-end, steering, struts, shocks, brakes, exhaust, are in perfect mechanical condition w/o any shaking, vibration, or pulling of any kind, with 4 brand NEW tires. It does have a 90-92 Camaro rear spoiler, an after-market muffler & rear dual exhaust tips (sounds GREAT), after-market plastic chrome brake & throttle pedals, door glass tint. All the lower ground-effects have been re-painted, along with the front & rear bumper covers. The body has no rust or body damage, the paint is in great condition with some paint chips, on a 1-10 scale I would give it a 9. Buy with confidence from a reputable seller with an outstanding feedback record. The buyer of this car will be very happy with it. Compare to listing #200517539685 (similiar car) for $5,120.00 with 90,931 miles on 9/15/10. You could drive this car to California just like James did, my last buyer of a RARE MINT (1 of 26) black 1986 305 H.O. 5-speed with 23,000 original miles on 1/10/10 for $9,000.00 (check the feedback on page #6). Also a RARE white (1 of 508) 1992 GTA with 68,000 original miles on 6/16/09 for $5,144.00 (check the feedback on page #8). Check out my MINT 2-owner 1998 M-B C-Class AMG C43 Sport Sedan currently for sale also. Any and all inspections & test-drives to be completed before the auction ends, not afterwards. The same goes with any questions that anyone may have, ask now, not after the auction ends, and they will be answered within 12-hours. Since this car is a 26-yr old used car, and is being sold AS-IS. I bought this car from the 2nd owner on 10/28/09 for $6,500.00 and it is FULLY insured as a COLLECTOR CAR for $8,000.00 with Heacock Insurance Group for $319.00 a year. Car is being sold because I have sold my big home with a 3-car garage, and will no longer have garage space for it. Pick-up is the responsibility of the buyer and at his cost, it must be picked-up within 2-weeks of the auctions end, and I will pick-up the buyer at Jacksonville In'tl Airport if necessary, so you can drive it come. I will also assist with transportation by carrier as well. A $500.00 Pay Pal non-refunable deposit is due with 24-hrs of the auctions end, CASH in person at pick-up with the balance due within 3-business days by bank wire-transfer, 2-weeks will be allowed to pick-up the car. No bids will be accepted from anyone without atleast a rating of 10 transactions with 100% feedback, unless you provide me with your contact information for PRIOR verification. NO EXCEPTIONS!!! I reserve the right to end this auction early, as it is also advertised locally. ALSO, if a sufficient number of bids have'nt been placed on the car prior to its last 24-hours, the auction will be ENDED early, as it wont be sold for the OPENING bid.... Therefore, bid EARLY, and bid OFTEN!!! On Nov-02-10 at 19:39:19 PDT, seller added the following information: PLEASE NOTE: I have had a tremendous amount of responces on this car and I would like to update the listing at this time. There is a small hair-line crack in the right-rear tail-light, the rear hatch shocks are weak, and the rear-hatch pull-down motor has just stopped working, as a car collector from Texas has had an independant inspection done on the car this afternoon. This car is in EXCEPTIONAL condition for being 25-yrs old (and it drives straight & rides tight & the engine is STRONG (NO knocks or abnormal engine noise, with a great shifting trans w/o any slippage or rear-end noise), it was taken to a local shop near my home to have the undercarriage inspected and digital pictures emailed to a perspective buyer. The undercarraige is in great condition, with very little corrosion on the attached parts of the unibody, but NO body rust was detected. Check the Autocheck report, as this car has always been owned in the Jacksonville area of N. Florida where it NEVER snows, so it has NEVER been subjected to road salt which is the main culprit of creating RUST on a car. Also, although this car is "Show Quality" and has won numerous local 1st place trophies in it's class by the previous deceased owner, but is NOT a 100-point show car for a few reasons. I would give it atleast an 85-90, as it does have a few aftermarket/non-OEM parts previously mentioned in the listing, as well as non-OEM tires & battery. But don't think you can take it to the 27th Annual Trans Am Nationals in Dayton Ohio next year and take 1st place, as there is some extremely STRONG competition at a show like that!!!! Like 98% original 1985-1986 1-owner cars with 10,000-20,000 miles on them that are worth in the $10,000-$20,000 price range!!!!!!! But you RARELY see a 25-yr old 80,000 mile car in this great of condition that always gets compliments everywhere you take it. I have done my best to describe this AWESOME car. On Nov-02-10 at 19:56:07 PDT, seller added the following information: Also, I did forget to mention that it has NEVER been in an automobile accident in its 25-yrs of life!!!!
