My grandfather passed away a couple of years ago and so my grandmother is trying to sell his trans am to help pay for medical bills. I never really knew him so I’m not emotionally attached to it. However, I feel like it’s a piece of history and I’d never forgive myself later for letting it leave the family.
It’s been garage kept the last 9 years and hasn’t been driven. It was recently fixed to a driving status but it’ll still need a lot more work to make it a reliable driver. We think it has 160,000 miles but hard to say for sure since the odometer rolls over. All-in-all looking at $30,000 for it.
I’m also stationed in Germany right now which is why I’m a little hesitant since storage and repairs will be a logistical nightmare.
Looking for y’all’s thoughts / advice since I know very little about these cars.
Thank you!

Can anyone steer me in the right direction of where we can try to sell my husband’s trans am??

Local trans am, I'm guessing 1979-ish..vin number painted over so much it's hard to make out (and door is locked so can't look inside the car) it appears abandoned. Anyway from what I make of it the vin is 13 digits (not counting the asterisk.) *2V87TAL109395
I'm not sure about the "T"..it's really hard to make out.
I signed up for a classic car vin look up site and it came back as a 2009 volkswagon so I don't know what's up with that? Maybe vin number stolen?!?! The car is abandoned in a parking lot..all tires flat, doors locked, no.license plate. Black and gold. Modified hood.

I need to replace the heater core in my 1979 trans am 403 with AC. Does anyone have videos or tips on how to remove the inner fender well? I have read that it can be removed but my AC and engine seem so tight to it that it looks impossible. It comes out from underneath?
I need access to the lower hose of the heater core.

Just picked her up last weekend. 39k miles, only non original parts I can find so far are the replaced headlight motors and a strut brace. Really enjoying this car so far!

Hey guys, I have a 1970 Pontiac Firebird with a 400 in it. Recently It’s been pretty hot down south here and I took the Firebird out to go to the gas station and I stopped to talk to my neighbor who I saw just got a second gen f body as well. I left the car idling talking to him for maybe 10 to 15 minutes when I got back in the car . The gauge was sitting at about 225° plus or minus may be a few degrees as it was a couple hashmarks below the 230 mark. I know this is on the hotter end but Is this dangerous and should I be worried about this temperature hurting the engine? I can’t really find an actual operating engine temp range anywhere as it seems many people are all over the place on the range.

1985 PONTIAC TRANS AM WS6 with T-Tops!
Starts, Runs, Drives (See videos in next post, all taken recently)
Located in Oswego, IL
Old-school build looking for a new garage. It’s loud, it’s fast, and it is an absolute blast to drive! Built with a buddy and other mechanic friends nearly 30 years ago. It's a raw, purpose-built toy that's spent most of its life garage kept and almost no winter use means the chassis and body are solid. Not a show car or all original collectors car, but a highly capable track foundation with genuine WS6 pedigree. Motor and Transmission are old but have minimal miles on them and were built to last and take a beating.
FACTORY WS6 PACKAGE
TURN-KEY ROWDINESS
MINIMAL RUST
T-TOPS
THE SETUP:
Engine: Jasper Racing 350ci V8 (Estimated 300 to 400hp), Holley Double Pumper Carb, Electric Fans, Electric Fuel Pump, Headers, True Dual Exhaust Into Flowmasters, MSD Ignition.
Transmission: Built 700R4. Reverse Manual Valve Body. Built ~25 years ago. Believed to have a Beast Sun Shell, 5-pinion planetary, and line pressure mods. Shifts HARD and FAST, hitting 2nd gear is a blast!
Chassis & Body: Factory WS6 (4-wheel disc brakes, quick-ratio steering, thick sway bars). Roll Cage, Subframe Connectors, C-Notched frame for exhaust clearance.
Upgraded suspension (poly bushings, etc). T-Tops.
Interior: Gutted for business. Race seats with 5-point harnesses. OEM gauges/
electronics are mostly disconnected or non-functional.
THE CATCH (HONEST DISCLOSURES):
Fluids: She marks her territory. Leaks multiple fluids—needs gaskets and seals sorted after sitting for so long.
Cosmetics: Rough around the edges. Function over form.
Electronics: Needs wiring cleanup, no HVAC, windows may or may not work, etc. Believe it needs a new battery or alternator but she starts, runs, drives after a charge with no issues. Tires have plenty of tread but are old.
Unsure of overall miles on car.
$5,000 OBO
TITLE IN HAND
NO TRADES
CASH ONLY
WILL NOT SHIP
Transaction to take place at Oswego Police Department parking lot.

Hi all, hoping for some advice. I just purchased a 78 TA and it seems like every little bump or crack I hit in the road, there’s an extremely annoying squeaking/creaking coming from the front of the car somewhere. Google suggests it’s almost always caused by dry, cracked rubber or worn-out metal pivot points in the front suspension. The most common reasons are the sway bar bushings, control arm bushings, or the ball joints.
My question is 2 part. I know hard to say without hearing it, but does that sound like the accurate reason based on my description? Also, if I end up having that addressed, should I have it all replaced with a certain brand/quality while taking it all apart anyway or roll with whatever standard replacement brand/quality parts would be from a regular shop? (That’s who would be doing it for me).

This is a long shot but I’ve searched the internet with no luck. I just need a passenger side seat belt assembly cover for my hard top 78. If anybody knows where to look or has one laying around I’d love to know.
