One more time before I part it out and sell the car without most of the suspension goodies (as in no weight jacker kit, T2R ... stock torque arm, panhard bar re-installed). If the car's not gone by this weekend, the stuff's coming off. I figure an easy $1,500 worth of parts can be sold, and I can still unload the car for more than $2K. Pat Pat, you're killing me. Really killing me. Let me talk to my wife.....again...... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/nutkick.gif) What and how many wheels come with this thing? |

I could write a check for it right now, but I would likely wind up divorced.
I'm trying to work out what/how long it would take me to gather cash through alternate means (play money funds, selling off some items I don't need, etc). I don't think I'm going to be fast enough for you (but I might be interested in discussing it). Don't ask me why I waited this long to decide that I should buy this car. But I'm still thinking of parting with my 4th gen and buying this, installing the AC and driving it daily for a while. That would get rid of my car payment and allow me to focus on land and a new house (one of the next plans on the list). |

Still, I would love to say yes to buying it, but I'm not quite there yet on the cash. How's the floor in her, rust-wise?
I'm at least interested in the rear end depending on price. Like I said, if it was the end of the summer.

If you part it out let me know how much you want for the T2R. I need one....

Hey Pat,
Would you take a thousand bucks and my Caprice wagon? I'll bring you the wagon and drive the Firebird home. Alternately, find somebody to buy my wagon for anything about $2k and we have a deal. |

Hey Pat, Would you take a thousand bucks and my Caprice wagon? I'll bring you the wagon and drive the Firebird home. Alternately, find somebody to buy my wagon for anything about $2k and we have a deal. Is it an LT1 wagon? I've always kinda wanted one, especially if it has wood paneling. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Other than that, I'm not looking for trades right now. Also keep in mind that much of the stuff has already been sold (weight jackers went out yesterday, panhard bar and STB were sold, T2R is out of the car and will be in the mail shortly, had someone interested in the headers) so it will be much closer to stock. About the only thing it will be is a clean Firebird with a 350 and T5. (I've updated the add to what's currently on the car.) Pat |

(Superbeetle was my "stand-in" co-driver for the last two events of last year). |

Rust, paint, mileage, etc, etc. If Superbeet has any current pics, that'd be great (e-mail is patred48 "at" verizon.net). I've seriously considered an LT1 Caprice/Roadmaster wagon or light duty truck once the Firebird is gone. Pat |

Pat Honestly, it's like a 50,000-ish (50 and change?) wagon bought from a little old lady (as I remember). It is in very good shape from what I've seen. |

Those were taken just after he bought the car. |

I believe the 911 and a Phaeton have the garage filled up..... So where's the LT1 Caprice wagon? It certainly isn't in those pics. Pat Crap, I thought that was an LT1 car...... Hi patred, Kevin and Neil probably remember me buying the car. At that point it was represented to me as an LT1 Caprice. It is not; the VIN indicates it is a 205hp L05 350 with four-speed automatic. One deceased owner prior to me. It's in sound shape and I have driven it on a couple multi-hundred-mile jaunts. At the moment it has 53,600 miles. New brake master cylinder, serpentine belt, transmission flush/fill, PCV valve. It's a light oil leaker - about a 2-inch circle any time it sits for a while - and needs an A/C recharge. Cruise works, power seats work, autodim mirror works. As it sits, it is probably worth $3-4K. I could eBay it but I am leaving for One Lap of America, followed by a tour of Germany, and I wouldn't be able to collect any cash until mid-May. If you think you want to make a deal, let me know and we can take care of it Wednesday/Thursday. Thanks! |

Updated price. Most of the suspension is stock now except for some bushings here and there. Has an Auburn differential that I used to win F-Stock at the Northeast Divisional last year. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rotflmao.gif)
