Tall order but what the heck
Looking for a complete driver car. I can do little things but need a reliable car that has no drivetrain needs. T-tops, hardtop, 4sp, auto, ac, no ac don't care. Only want I have is a rust free as possible complete running driving car that I can use on powertour and slowly work on. 70-81 Firebird or TA. I'm in Georgia and have a $10k budget.

I've been watching craigslist lately, and it's been slim pickings for second gen Firebirds. I don't know this car, but it looks pretty nice and is at the upper limit of your budget.

Looking at the pics of the bird for sale it has a blue steering wheel & gray seat covers. So i would expect it has a cracked dash & ripped seats. I'd check it out close before you consider it. Or get a lot of pics of it dated today & not last decade.

One photo had a blue steering wheel, another had a black steering wheel.
To me, it all comes down to how good the body is. If the body is rust-free, you can afford to change interior parts out and maybe change to a Pontiac engine at some point. It looks very straight to me. |
