Need a project !!
« on: July 16, 2007, 08:47:07 AM »
Ok I have the Gold 78 but the problem with a special edition is you don't really want to go to nuts with what you do to it so I need a car I can go resto mod with.  Looking for any restorable ta / formy / or firebird from 75 - 79.  Would prefer 75/76.  The closer to northern ohio the better.
78 Gold Special Edition TA
96 GMC Sierra
99 Diamondback 18 Spd
00 Ford Windstar
04 Buick Rendezvous
05 Roadmaster tricycle


Keep on Moppin' in the Free world.

If I were you...... ;D

I would try to get one out of Arizona or California.  Just for rust issues.  I just pulled the fuel tank off my 1992 Bronco...a car that has never been in a garage and there was no rust at all on any of the body (looking at it from under the car).  I know it's a little harder to get it back to where you live, but if you find one that is drivable it would be a fun trip.  It would save you time and money in the long run.

I agree with ta78w72, f.y.i. though, Nevada is just as good to get a car from. Stay away from cars in Northern Cali, it's quite moist up there.
