Went to look at a new car today. Private sale via a mates mate. Was exited beyond belief only to go and see possibly the worst heap I have seen to be kept on a public road!
It was a shame... a pontiac trans-am gta. In a mess, rust everywhere, bald tyresx4. masses of play in steering, did not fire for a good min and then sounded more like a bag of spanner than a V8... and he wanted 5k... with no chance of anything less!!!
I did offer him voluntary admmitance to a psychy ward :D :D
Nevermind... going to see a 79 example next week.. hopful for that ::) ::)

Are we talking about Pontiac Trans am/ firebird like james garner had in The rockford Files. :y :y

5K for a bag of crap, he's having a laugh matey. I sold my mint 1992 GTA last september for 5K & she was a peach. If you look in the forum gallery under "My Old Monster" there's a pic :y

Trans ams are rot boxs round the bottom of the rear window.
Corvette Stingray has a fibreglass body. Worth keeping in mind if you want to keep it for a long time.
Nip to the newsagaents and pick up a car mag on yanks, should be some specific adds in the back of them. :y

Well well well! The 79 even worse of a mess!!
Have had a good think for half an hour today (thats all it takes!) AND spoken to the better half... and... I may abandon the US muscle car and am now considering (with her approval!) a monaro.
Just got to find some suitable candidates. 8-) ;) 8-)
