Roof developed some rust pin-holes, water ran down and rusted the firewall and floor-pan. Beyond my time/patience and expertise to fix right. Standard Flat Hood is buckled from a previous owner forcing it open/closed without oiling the hinges -typical GM of the day. Driver's Side Fender is dented, and wrong color.
THIS CAR IS 42 YEARS OLD. PACIFIC NORTHWEST CAR. GOING TO BE SOME RUST EVEN ASIDE FROM THE ROOF LEAKS! NOTHING ON THIS CAR IS PERFECT, BUT A LOT OF THE PARTS ARE SERVICEABLE AS-IS OR CAN BE RECONDITIONED WITH SOME TIME AND CARE, SOME PARTS ARE STILL IN GREAT SHAPE, AND THEY AREN'T GETTING CHEAPER OR EASIER TO FIND.
Originally 305 H.O. V-8, NUMBERS MATCHING, but engine is bad. Mechanical fuel-pump, accessory brackets, all accessories still available, separately. Newer starter motor. Heads are gone, cam went flat. Basically a boat-anchor now. Available as a rebuildable CORE, if someone wants it that bad. Ran before I pulled the heads and it sat, but ran badly with the flat cam. Minor surface-rust developing on cylinder walls, will need at least a honing possibly re-ring before run again.
Junk 305 CORE, block/rotating assembly only: $100 for the time it took me to pull it.
Edelbrock Performer aftermarket intake: $200 Nego.
Accessory Brackets/Accessories, will separate: $Make Offer.
4-Speed Manual Transmission now pulled from the car, complete with Bell-Housing, Mechanical Clutch Linkage, Fork, Bell-Crank, Pedal and Bracket Assembly, and Drive-Shaft. Should be able to retrofit into any 3rd-Gen F-Body with minimal work. 1982 was the ONLY year a Third-Generation Trans Am /Firebird /Camaro got the 4-Speed, rare car.
Transmission/Bellhousing/Linkage/Pedal/Flywheel: $750 FIRM.
3.23 Posi Rear Axle, Drum Brakes: $300 FIRM.
Good Open-Diff Axles available for cheaper too -ask if interested.
Heavy-Duty Performance Front T/A Sway-Bar needs new bushings: $100 OBO.
Interior has been pulled and ready for delivery. Rare "PMD" seats are 'correct' type for a KITT/Knight-Rider build, and go for over $1,000 on ebay just for the front pair when available -these are the darker Root-Beer Brown though, NOT the KITT 'Camel Tan'. Serviceable, but would need reupholstering for a serious restoration.
Front and Rear Seats, Door Panels/Cards, and as much interior "Root-Beer Brown" plastics as you want, $750 FIRM.
-I don't want to ebay these and deal with shipping/freight issues. Would rather deal locally or will just keep them.
Dash/Instruments available. These are the early gauges of course, limited speedometer but cable-driven, pretty rare these days as Pontiac switched to electronic in the mid '80s. Make Offer.
Good TILT Steering Column with Key and Lock: $250 Firm.
Steering Wheel available separately: $50 Firm.
Early Trans Am taillights, and base-model Firebird tails available also. I have a couple extra sets in varying condition. Pictures available on request: $150-200 /pair based on condition, OBO.
Good Rear Hatch Glass comes With or Without the rear deck and Wing Spoiler (Your Choice): $150-$200.
More Wing-Spoilers available separately, other colors available as well, just ask: $50 each.
Doors (no Ground Effects holes drilled in them) complete with glass, Power Window regulators (not tested recently) and mirrors, some rust but treatable. $75 each, $140 matched pair.
Extra set of '83 Trans Am (Daytona?) doors also available with Power Windows, Power Locks, Power Mirrors and Ground Effects trim. $80 each, $150 matched pair.
Inner Fender/Wheel Well/Strut-Tower Sheet-Metal in Good Condition,
Will cut-out upon request or once the car is stripped completely for scrap if no one wants the shell, can include extra frame-sections too for your crash-repair needs.
$400 Each Side, Nego.

Newer-style (late '80s/early '90s) 15-inch aluminum Firebird wheels available (see pic of Maroon car) -old tires may not hold air well and should be considered as 'rollers' only, may not be safe on the road.
$250 set of four, OBO.
I have a couple sets of Trans Am doors, with glass, some pre-drilled with Ground Effects, some not. Rear hatch-glass, front and rear bumper-covers, Outside Door Mirrors also used on the Corvette and Fiero models. Lots of extra parts for these cars. Extra set of restorable newer-style grey cloth seats (1991) and complete grey interior (see pics), later-style ('91-'92 "shark-nose") Trans Am nose/ Rear Bumper Cover /Ground Effects -need some work... E-mail me with what you need, I might have it. Parting-out the Maroon "Shark-Nose" car too, mostly complete, or buy the (almost) whole car -clean title. 5.0L Roller-Cam V-8, some rust problems, some wiring issues -inquire if interested, please see my other Posting for more details or just ask.
Make offer on parts, or make a fair offer and take the car as-is, would need to be towed or trailered. Delivery available for an extra cost. Clear title available, would be nice to see someone restore this car, it is a rare classic now. Ask questions regarding the car, I'll answer what I can, and take pics of whatever parts of it you need. No hurry to sell, thanks. Tweakers, scammers, bad-attitude BSers, and other assorted Losers need not respond. E-mail ONLY, no generic "Is it still available?" responses please -be specific when responding so I know you are an actual person interested in buying. Local sales strongly preferred -will ship to the right person, but if I wanted to ship stuff out, I would make more money selling on ebay.
Car is mostly complete. Here is a running list of parts that are gone/not available:
305 H.O. Cylinder Heads -GONE.
Carburetor -GONE.
Left (Driver's-side) Headlamp Assembly -GONE. (But another still available)
Interest in restoring this car or seeing it continue to darken my driveway -GONE.
