1989 Pontiac Firebird Formula WS6 in Philly, PA
1989 Pontiac Firebird Formula WS6
I bought this car with 87000 miles on it three years ago. I bought the car with the intentions of redoing the car as my ideal thirdgen f-body and using it as a daily driver. The car has served me well over the past five years and been a great daily driver. A month after I purchased the car I entered it in the Carlisle GM Nationals where it won first place in 78-02 Pontiac Firebirds. Shortly after that it won an award for best wheels at the NJFBOA nationals. The car was a 305TPI/700R4/2.73 Posi car that I had professionally converted to a manual transmission (WC T-5). The car currently has 97XXX miles on it. If you have been to the Carlisle GM nationals the last five years you have seen this car. It also was entered in many shows local to Philadelphia PA.

Rebuilt the hatch motor and just put the headliner in, getting it ready for summer and Carlisle GM nats. Once the interior is redone completely the price will be changing.

Sorry no trades, the only reason I have it up for sale is I am trying to thin the herd.
