Did I miss something?   Sure save the TA, but some cars just gotta be parted out to keep others alive.

Saddly the only way to make them more valuable is to make others go away.

Ill agree, have to say ive seen some nice transams get cut up though. I just wish hey would make new parts. such as hoods,fenders,parts of that nature. mostly my friend tells me about al the nice ones .He tells me that they have no right to be  in there.

In a perfect world we would only have to cut up base Firebirds, but sometimes the Trans Am isn't worth saving :'(

And we all know this is not a perfect world.If it  the transam/firebird would not rust in al the same areas,because of the way the cars were designed.

If people actually took care of their cars and didn't abandon them in fields then rust wouldn't be an issue but some people don't car about cars.  But without them we wouldn't be able to restore cars which brings people so much joy

It is like the third gen camaros and Trans Ams, right now not very many people give a crap about them, but once they hit a certain age people want them again.

The third gen T/A's dont look that bad either, that would almost be the way to go if these T/A's didnt look so much better

I completley agree with that, it would just need an engine swap for sure, unless you have the 5.7 then it might be ok the way it is
