Searching for Hardtop 5 Speed GTA

Hey everyone, I am looking for a hardtop GTA. I'm being pretty specific in what I am looking for and that is why I have been having an issue finding one. I figured this would be the best place to find it

The car has to have certain things, such as :
Must be a real GTA
Must be a hard top
Must be a 5 speed
No Rot
Very little rust (Surface rust is fine)

Those are my few must haves, however I would like the car to have the following, but it wouldn't be a deal breaker if it did not :
Under 100,000 Miles
Flame Red Metallic in color
Paint in good to decent condition
As close to stock as possible

The interior color doesn't make too big of a difference to me. I know this list is very picky, but any help in locating this car would be greatly appreciated! It would be nice if it was in the New England area, but for the right car I would be willing to travel. Thanks!

Re: Searching for Hardtop 5 Speed GTA

Aren't all stock 350s automatic? Unless you find one that has a swapped T-5, you probably won't find what you're looking for. If you do find one, it's not "original" but that's all relative to how "original" you want it.
