1988 Pontiac Sunbird GTAbout This Vehicle: 
					 ***Car is for sale on ebay, $1,600 reserve.***  I bought this car on ebay for $2700.  I flew from Louisville to Dallas and drove it back.  It was owned by an elderly lady and it had 32,173 miles on it when I got it from a dealer who got it from an auction.  Then upon testing it at the track, I happened upon my buddy Ned Southwick.  He had just run a 8.06 in the 1/8 mile and took me under his wing to get mine in perfect running order. 
Best of 8.83 in the 1/8th before the T-25 was swapped with the .60/.48 T-3.  Blew the tranny up in the first hour and spun a rod as well.  It sat for the last year until yesterday (1-9-05) when the crank and bearings were finally replaced. Body Style: Coupe Color: Red Engine: 2.0L I4 SOHC Turbo Transmission: Automatic
