This is an awesome 91' T/A vert I found on Ebay. It is just like my '92 (minus the low miles and the luggage rack). The car is pricey, but it is a drooler!

i was just going to post that one! So fresh, so clean! $19000 Starting Bid $25,390 Buy it now!

 

This guy should let it sit in the garage for another 20 years. I'd like to see what it goes for then!

 

seriously in 20 years all of our carsare going to be worth money!

 

i could never bring myself to buy a car like ours and not be able to enjoy driving it.

 

I really dont see alot of convertible firebirds.. are these rare?

 

Much more rare than the Cams. Especially this one with the five-speed. Check out the history/restoration part of the forum, and the Tech Data link on the thirdgen.org home page for more info.

 

ive seen two firebird convertibles, mine and one other, thats it..ever...

 

I think that guy has his numbers wrong... there was around 1000 Firebird verts produced in '91 if I recall correctly. He may have used the same logic I used that assumes at least half were V8 cars and the other half were sixes. It seems like there are a lot of them out here... well, more than in other places. I was at a light in Walnut Creek, CA and facing me in the opposite direction was my exact car with different wheels.

Oh well.

That was a very rare occurance in my life. Never happened again.

 

I saw a '91 Trans Am (I believe) vert 5 speed on ebay today. You might want to take a look if your into them.

 

950 Firebird verts in 91. 1265 in 92. 555 TA verts in 91. 663 TA verts in 92.

The one on ebay sounds like it might be a little high. Starting bid is 6 Grand! I got mine (in much better condition) for 5,500.

And this one has a weird gray cloth interior (seats). I don't know if it is correct, but it sure looks weird that the door panels, plastic on the seats, carpet, etc. is tan and the seats are gray. I haven't seen another 91 or 92 vert TA with cloth. I know most of the firebirds were cloth, but not TAs.

 

Hey gcgarner,

Your a photographer right? Yet you don't have an avator set up? What gives?

 

Are those really the factory leather seats in that car? They look so much like 4th gen TA seats. Never seen seats like those in a thirdgen, leather or not.

 

You know how they say "The cobbler's kid has no shoes" ... so it goes in my household with photography. My wife is always on my butt about pictures. To me, taking pictures is like work, because that's what I do all day. So, when I'm home (messing with my car), the last thing on my mind is pictures.

But now that I've been called out, I will get on it ASAP!

Yes, there is a 91 TA vert, 5 spd on ebay. $6,000 starting bid, 102K,not original paint, cloth seats.

 

Here is my '91 with only 34K miles:



I have only seen one other one back in 1993. That is it...

My interior is completly gray, so I don't know what the deal is with the tan/gray combo interior on that car...

 

a good friend of mine had a 92 vert TA 5sp car had 54000km's not miles. he bought it from an auction for 2500cad and sold it for 10500cad i still think he should have kept it, it was in perfect condition other that the spoiler broke of when he was havening sex on it it was that forest green with the tan leather, a very nice car I wish he never sold it.

 

omg, that just made my day. hahahaha.

 

mine too

I actually like the Formy hood. Priceless to me, yours for 10K. Bargain? Talk me into it.

Cheers,

 

that sucks in states like NJ, maryland and CA that you have to have a front plate...my friends dad in maryland complains about the front of his mustang roush being scratched up all the darn time. i couldnt imagine what i'd do if my car was required to have a front plate and screw up my bumper like that...

 

lol, i dont have a front plate on my camaro... never have... i dont have one on the cobalt either.. i just put em in the window...

 

That's still illegal- CA requires that the front plate be 'securely fastened' to the front of the car.

V.C. Section 11713.17 - Front License Plate Bracket


Also, with the advent of IR plate scanners mounted on cop cars (they started using them here in LB about 6 months ago), I'm considering finally putting a plate on the front of my car... (it, too, has never seen a front plate in its 16 years on the road). I heard that these systems can also alert a patrol officer if the car has no plate either.

yeah i got my 92z off ebay too =) 7000 with 40,000 miles on it delivered to my house

 

IF he is gunna be such a putz about it, let him pull me over, then ill fix it... im not gunna let anyone dampen my parade without effort, thats for sure, he wants it fixed, he'll pull me over, ill put the bracket back on on the spot if he wishes (I have it in the trunk) and ill put the stupid plate on... lol

 

Thanks for busting my *****! Just kiddin'.

Seriously, my company doesn't do any high-volume work. All of our prints are custom printed by lab technicians for the best color and quality, so we can't really compete with "Winkflash" prices. And we don't do cheesy stuff like "photo mugs", just large-format professional prints.

And the girl I got to model for my Web site is WAY hot and well worth looking at!!! Guys, get your pics of your third gens in here!!! Printembig.com

 

Avatar and sig up and active!!!! Now get off my back!!! LOL!!

 

if your a photographer than you might appreciate my sig. Its the skyway bridge in Tampa, Fl in the background

 

Yep ...very nice.

 

I saw that.


BTW, nice car.
