[NY] 1988 Trans Am GTA

1988 Trans Am GTA
I have a 1988 Trans Am GTA but it has been sitting in the driveway for a few years and either the axles or the brakes are locked because it won’t move. It was in great working condition before I let it sit too long. Engine still starts up and runs great. I’m looking to sell, even if just for parts. I live in New York City. The engine has about 80,000 miles on it and is in great condition. It has lots of things that probably have value on eBay. Some optional features it has are T-tops, the digital dash, and overhead center console. Thank you all in advance. See photos:

Looks like a complete car with nice options but may have some rust issues around the rockers and drivers quarter panel. If you part it out I would be interested in a few parts, like the shifter handle. Let me know if your interested.

I bought a 1990 GTA almost identical to yours last summer. It is one of just 78 GTAs for 1990 with a 5 spd. They are rare. Even with the auto transmission. Restored your GTA would be worth a pretty penny. I'm not sure what to do to get it rolling again, but it looks like you have some interest in selling complete and not parting out.

If it was my car I would try to sell it whole, it’s too nice to part out IMO and I’m the guy who wanted a part from it so take that for what it’s worth. It would make a nice project as long as it’s structurally sound.

Brake lines are probably collapsed. Cheap and easy fix if so, (as in replace rubber hose lines going to calipers). Look at your calipers and see if they are stuck on your rotors.
