WTT: 1991 Firebird Convertible Pgh Area

[RufusG]

I have one too many cars so the Firebird has to go. It is a 1991 Firebird (not Trans Am) convertible, black, with tan top and interior. Five liter V8, five speed, AC, power windows, lock, antenna. I am the original owner and am located just north of Pittsburgh.

The Good: Car has only 30K miles on it. It has spent a fair time garaged. The tires and shocks are new within the last couple years. The top is in excellent condition. The interior is in very nice shape. Car runs fine.

The Bad: Two body panels have damage. The right front fender is bent out a little bit. The passenger side door is torn up a bit where the mirror was ripped off backing out of the garage. Car is still completely driveable with this damage. Windshield wipers don’t work (I believe this is not the motor but perhaps the linkage). CD player doesn’t work right (radio works). Car will not pass inspection based on the wipers and missing mirror, don't know about the bodywork.

The Kelly blue book says the private party price (fair condition based on the damage) is $2900. The Edmunds blue book value of this car seems (average condition) to be about $1200. I can’t explain the difference. I prefer to trade rather than sell outright. Pics on request.

Some things I would be interested in considering as part of a deal:

Remington Model 14 or maybe 141, w/ no extra holes
Remington Model 31 Trap model or other checkered stock version 12 ga.
Savage Model 99 premil S/N no extra holes, especially. in 30-30
S&W N-Frame 357s or 41s
S&W Performance Center guns
S&W 1911s
Benelli Sport II/Super Sport 12 ga.
Sako vixen .223
Quality collectible (likely meaning older) .22 rimfires
S&W Model 39 in at least excellent condition w/ box and papers, etc.
Leupold VX-III 1.5x-5x scope
.308 Surplus ammo especially Port or Hirtenberger

If you want to offer something other than what’s on my hit list I am leaning more towards handguns these days as opposed to long guns as I am running out of safe space.

Make me an offer!
