helter if i had 35 grand, i would be talking to you. i think the car prices shot up too high too fast no special thanks to them tv auction houses!!!!!!!! and on top of that, the economy sucks i have never been so broke since i started working when i was 13 to put it plain and simple and then i had a press route but atleast the whole whopping $650 a month i earned was all mine for whatever i wanted to do with it. now i dont even have that a month to spare wtf??? lol oh well. i believe this is why i cannot sell my y88 for crap either. its too good to give away but at the same time, i need money majorly and have nothing else to sell.

Oh yeah, I wouldn't want to talk to that women again either Hitman.  I remember it took nearly an hour for us just to get out of there as we heard about her husbands uncles kids having their gall bladder removed, or his wife's sisters new plastic surgery, or about their families other ailments IN DETAIL.  :o :o :o LOL  I think she must have kept you on the phone at least for an hour with each call.  What a waste of time.  Sorry to hear the deal hinges on a phone call.  I wouldn't call him either in fear you may have to talk to her AGAIN.   ;D

Brett,

  If you are really looking for a first gen firebird I got one you may like. Its A 69 PHS documented 400 4 speed car w/posi, console, power discs, ps, and ac. Have the original block, (but its not in the car), car is running and driving with a rebuilt 400 shortblock and original top end. Its very solid with excellent floors, lower quarters, etc. Its in line for paint, but will part with it as is or repainted.

Thanks Dennis, but I do not like the 1969 at all.  I just like the 67 or 68.

dennis what are you looking to get for that 69 as is? the 69 is ultimately my dream car i always wanted a white 400 car with green interior....(had a chance to buy one when i was 15 that color) but it was sold before i could get the full ammount.

That is a beatiful Firebird,but I have to say I agree with the Hitman,the 67-68 has an awesome looking front end

Rick,

  Just a hunch but I would bet the white green 69 you looked at was a green green car that was painted white as a way to make it sell better. Any ways, I would take $8000 for the 69 as it is now, before it gets painted. I have more pics of it posted on this link http://www.cor-vette.com/1969_firebird%204%20speed.htm its a nice straigt solid good driving car that could be an easy project needing mainly paint and carpet (I took out the carpet to inspect floors) and Brett, I think I have a few solid rolling 68 project birds...

Dennis,

Sorry to hi-jack this thread, but could you give me the 411 on some of your roller '68 birds? Would you be interested in a VERY solid '79 Trans Am all original for a trade perhaps??? Let me know.

PM and I will send you an e-mail. Sorry for the intrusion guys!

Dave

i'd trade you straight up my y88 for your 69 if you were at all interested i would offer some cash too but i dont have any i have less than 15 hours to go on my auction so im guessing im not selling it as it didnt hit my reserve price.

I am always open to trading, or as my wife says "swapping chickens". Here is one of my 68 rollers that is currently in my parts field. It was originally an autumn bronze 350 4 speed car.

i'd be interested in trading my y88 for a 69 if it doesnt sell tonite on ebay. the only problem is my trucks transfercase is blown out so i couldnt transport crap right now.
