69 Trans Am in Ohio for $127K. "national show winning car at many shows and formally POCI judged at 997 of 1000 points". I wonder what the three points were for? Nice car. Is it worth that much... prolly. Only way you get a tach was to get the stacked gauges and they're pretty rare in automatics.

71 Firebird 400 4-speed at $24.5K BIN in Washington. Unlike a lot of Firebird that have a mix of T/A + 400 parts, this one looks sharp IMO. I like the T/A additions. The interior is weak (especially the back seat), but it isn't priced at $30K.

68 over-priced Firebird that isn't finished at $49.5K BIN in Florida. While I appreciate the effort on a car like this and would love a supercharged LS3 in one of my cars, I would never go this route. With all the suspension/brake/lotsofotherstuff mods that need to be done to make this work, it's still going to be an older car without air bags. The engine has zero miles... sad the owner will never drive it. No pics of the interior.

79 T/A in CA at $2300 NR. Someone bit off more than they could chew. Rust free CA cars are worth a lot more than kinda rusted ones.

If I were closer to it I would have to check it out, if it does have a 71 HO in it that is a great deal IMO
