1980 FIREBIRD BASE COUPE I PURCHASED IN 2006 IN LINCOLN NEBRASKA. ONE FAMILY OWNED. FACTORY BUICK 265 V6 CAR. I REPLACED THE V6 AFTER I BOUGHT IT WITH A BUILT 1975 PONTIAC 400 THAT I HAD IN A 1970 FIREBIRD. MOTOR HAS PROBABLY LESS THEN 1000 MILES SINCE DECKED, ATTED, ORED .030, EW INTERNALS AND MILDLY AGGRESSIVE CAM. I DISCARDED CATALYTIC AND DID NOT REPLACE THAT PART OF EXHAUST BEFORE STORING CAR. TH350 TRANS SHIFT KIT & STALL.FULL DISCLOSURE: 95% RUST FREE. WORST RUST UNDER LIP OF REAR DECK LID. ONLY TIME I HAVE EVER SEEN ONE RUSTED THERE BUT ITS NOT BAD. I HAVE ANOTHER TRUNK LID TO GO WITH CAR. 2 TINY HOLES ON BOTTOM FRONT PASSENGER FENDER. ALL ORIGINAL SHEET METAL AND ALL VERY SOLID. ONLY BONDO ON CAR IS ON REAR PASSENGER QUARTER. PREVIOUS OWNER USED THE NOSE FOR A 79 HE HAD THAT HAD A 78 NOSE ON IT SO YOU SEE IN THE PICTURES HE THEN REPLACED IT WITH A NOSE IN GOOD SHAPE FROM ANOTHER CAR AND PRIMERED IT.THE CAR HAS BEEN IN DRY STORAGE SINCE BUT I WILL NEVER FINISH IT AS I NEED TO SELL SOME OF MY PROJECTS. STARTS VERY EASILY AND SOUNDS GREAT. DOES NOT SMOKE AT ALL. IT IS A VERY STRONG MOTOR! RUNS AND DRIVES NICELY. SMALL OIL LEAK AT DRIVERS FRONT OIL PAN AND DETENT CABLE (KICKDOWN) ON TRANSMISSION PAN LEAKS A FEW DROPS ALSO. BRAKES ARE A LITTLE SOFT. I SUSPECT THEY NEED TO BE BLED. BATTERY IS WEAK BUT CHARGES. REMEMBER THIS CAR HAS BEEN SETTING FOR 9 YEARS. REAR DRIVERS TIRE SUN ROTTED AND I WOULD REPLACE ALL 4 TIRES. NEEDS CARPET. HEADLINER NEEDS GLUED. ALL INSTRUMENTATION AND ELECTRICAL WORKS FINE EXCEPT FAN SPEED SWITCH IS BROKEN WHERE THE PLUG FITS INTO BACK OF SWITCH. NEEDS HOOD LATCH CABLE. SOME OF THE LIGHT BULBS IN GAUGE CLUSTER ARE BURNED OUT. PLEASE CONTACT ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS. STEVE 806-433-7469. TEXT OR CALL. 500.00 PAYPAL DEPOSIT WITHIN 24 HOURS AUCTION CLOSE AND BALANCE WITHIN 72 HOURS BY PAYPAL, ERTIFIED CHECK OR CASH. THIS CAR NEEDS PAINT AND VERY LITTLE ATTENTION TO BE A REALLY NICE CAR AND IT CAN BE DRIVEN WHILE BEING IMPROVED. I HAVE PLACED A LOW RESERVE!
