Default FS: 1998 Formula Firebird...$6000

Located in Western New York...

Car dyno'd 343rwhp

White Formula
1998 hardtop, 113k
A4
Grey cloth interior , seats are excellent, dash is mint, door panels have a little wear and tear

Pacesetter LTs, dumped X pipe, Lid, UD pulley, Yank SS4000 stall, 3.23s (working posi), Sphon LCAs, SFCs, Comp eng rear shocks, MT drag radials, rear window tinted 5% , side windows untinted
Ac removed, air removed, CC removed ,windshield squirts gone, the carpet is cut right in front of the rear seats (but I do have it still) and the rear seats ARE in the car. The car has working lights all around, working heat w/ blower, working wipers, nothing stripped out of the inside (still has working pwr winows, pwr locks, pwr seat ect ect)

with 3.73s it ran a 12.1 @111mph in the 1/8th it ran a 7.76 @ 88 on a 1.7 60'
weighs 3030#'s
Car is a rust free Texas car, clean title, clean car fax
Overall nice shape, it has some wear and tear, no dents or dings but front bumper cover has some spidering of the paint, besides that the paint is pretty clean, no major flaws
It has new front tires and the rears are worn Mickey Thompson Street ETs
Brakes are good and it has slotted rotors

Working single cd Monsoon with aftermarket speakers, no traction control, cloth interior, pwr drivers seat, pwr antenna in-op but in up position
The car is loud (sounds awesome!) with the dumped X pipe but it runs and drives great, no SES or anything, no oil consumption issues or piston slap, both windows work, both headlights work!


This car can easily be a 10 second car with a heads/cam and some spray...a similar car to this one that belonged to a friend of mine ran a 10.88 with the same setup minus the underdrive pulley and weight reduction...So we're talking mid 10's with the right setup and not a lot of $$$...Many people have looked at this car inside and out because they couldn't believe that it was putting down the numbers it did with whats been done to the car...It's been called a factory freak, and I would have to agree with them...It packs a nasty punch for the amount of mods that have been done


I just bought this car and I probably should have thought about my financial situation before hand, but it was such a great deal I didn't want to pass it up...There isnt anything wrong with the car other than I have to make payments on it lol...I'm not looking to make any profit on this car just pay off my loan and start over...I took a loan out for $6,000 and thats what I would like to get...so please, no lowballs, this car is worth every penny and I probably could have asked for more, but considering the guy I bought it from is a good guy I wouldnt feel right profiting from his original price...Thanks for looking!


edit: pics up!
