I'm mentally checked out on this thing and it's waiting it's turn behind 3 vehicles I like a lot more than it. 1987 Trans Am roller. Has good interior and decent paint that's probably a repaint. One ding in the passenger side rear quarter by the tail light and one tiny spot of rust in the inner rocker panel on the driver side. Has a 3.27 gear LSD 9 bolt axle. No engine, transmission, or brakes. Mounts, linkages, and most of the wiring are in place for a 700r4 and TPI 350. ECM has been sold because I was going to LS swap it. Front bumper is present but the hood isn't. Lowball offers welcome, as are off the wall trades.

Can i trade something for the gta wheels yet?  Do not want the car.  Come up here, bring me wheels, i'll fill your new truck with stuff.  Truck wheels, LS parts, probably some caprice parts, 15x8 truck rally wheels for your wagon.  I'll fill your bed for those wheels

Largest issue here is that I don't have another set if 5x4.75 wheels. So I can't move the car if the wheels leave. I'll happily trade the wheels for something and give you a free car though.

Step 1. Find 20 different wheel locks. 

Step 2. Tell Patrick he can come get the wheels. 

Step 3. Profit!

That sounds evil but I feel like Patrick is the kind of guy who isn't slowed much by a wheel lock.

Big hammer plus a coffee can of old 12 point sockets = wheel lock removal kit.

I've thought about it. I still think I'll have to give you the car if you take the wheels. Unless you can find somebody else to claim the car at the same time.

You should tighten the screw on him.  Take the bed full of stuff and the RX8 for the Firebird.  That way he's not getting an extra car.

That's an interesting idea. An RX8 is almost a Miata and Daylan just became a Miata guy.

I can buy nice gta wheels for what i want for the rx8 and new reproduction ones for $100 more.  Stampie is out of line

But then I have an RX8. Seems like I'm losing there.

The RX-8 is a wonderful car! Just get a 2009 or later.

You know this Trans Am is begging for a 454 swap right?

You have the talent to do it on a challenge budget. I don't but I have some of the parts you need, cheap. Like, dirt bottom price if you do this. Heck, if anybody does this, I'll let the 454 block parts I have go for $300.

You could probably trade the wheels to Patrick for whatever you need to finish the swap.

Someone not named Stampie should get with Patrick, Daylan, and Brett and make this deal:

Patrick trades Daylan pile of stuff plus rollers for the GTA wheels.

SNNS makes up price difference with Daylan on the Trans-Am.

SNNS buys Brett's 454.

SNNS trades some of those 454 parts to Stampie for like replacements plus cash.

SNNS builds kick ass Trans-Am for Challenge.

What if SNNS was named Little Stampie? Because I can totally see Little Stampie doing massive rolling burnouts in a third gen with someone who is named Stampie in the passenger seat.

No!  Although I got a scare when he was 3.  The very first car that caught his attention to excitedly ask me "What is that!?".  I looked over and saw a 3rd gen Camaro.  I got worried that he'd grow a mullet.

It's not a phase! This is the real me! 

This is like Tom Suddard and his big truck 4wd thing. It's coming, and no amount of hijacking Daylans thread will prevent it.

Tom's eyes did glaze over when he saw my K30 in person.  Pretty sure he called dibs on it.
