Hello Fbody enthusiasts. I'm selling my 1987 Firebird with 216,000 miles on it that I'm just not able to finish. Over the past year I've done a lot of work to it, and had planned on swapping a a V8 in... here are the specifics. Drivetrain...Engine starts and runs no problem. It leaks in most places (tho I never have to seem to add any fluids) and it shifts pretty well. There is a new battery and I've fixed some of the emissions hoses. Battery tray is rusted out. It has a loud chirping sound coming from one of the pulleys, and the car is loud. I'm pretty sure there is an exhaust leak. Suspension.... it has new KYB shocks, bf Goodrich white letter tires (only a few hundred miles on them), new brakes in front, the wheels are in good shape, and new end link bushings and trans mount. Interior...... the interior is pretty much new. I got a lot of panels out of an 87 Camaro, and they are in pretty nice shape. The seats (driver is power seat) came out of a 2000ish camaro. It has brand new carpet. The dash is cracked, so I have a carpet cover over it. The head unit has an Auxillary input. The headliner has been redone with auto carpet. Body. Things get a little hairy here. The body has many dings and clear coat failures. The patina in the paint is bad but everyone says it looks kinda cool. The spoiler has a crack in it. I've got the flip up headlights working, but one of the motors runs after they flip(nylon gear needs replace which is an easy fix) There is hardly any rocker panel rust, but (here is the worst part) the windshield leaked and part of the passenger side floor pan had to be cut out. I patched in some metal, but you will want to have this looked at by a pro. It's mainly isolated to that one area above the cat converter. I patched it, Por 15d it and undercoated under the carpet. (The entire floor pan). The windshield will need to be removed and metal may need to be fixed under it. Other than that, this car is ready for either a V8 swap, or a refresh in the 2.8. This is a very nice half completed project car if you can look past the body work for a while . I consider this a saved car. I hope someone can keep it going. THIS CAR PASSED DELAWARE EMISSIONS/SAFETY/BRAKE TEST with no issues, even with the above issues. It is currently tagged. I've tried to be as honest as possible, and I have 100% feedback. I'm sure there are things about this car that I haven't discovered, but this is what I presently know about it. Thank you very much!
