2002 Firebird LS1 automatic with 91,500 miles. I purchased the car last August 2016, and prior to my purchase it had been sitting for over 5 years. When purchase the car received new set of tires, a new fuel pump, new battery, new alternator, new spark plugs/wires, serpentine belt, front rotors turned, new brake pads on all four corners, and a couple bulbs. All fluids were changed, including motor/filter, transmission/filter, rear end, brake fluid and coolant. The car has been driven less than 1,000 miles since purchase. It is been a weekend car. I have decided to build a house and need to focus my energy to the house build. Overall I would rate the car a 8.5 out of 10 if a 10 was perfect. Mechanically the car is a 9 out of 10. The car has a light vibration above 70mph. It is only noticeable on a very smooth road and goes in and out based on speed. I had the tires "rebalanced" twice, and the last tire shop told me I had a bent rim. I had the rim replaced , but it did not help. I took it to another mechanic and was told the balancer was bad, so that was changed, but it did not fix the vibration. I can include the extra rim and balancer if desired. The check engine light is currently off, but it will come on and turn back off. I had it scanned, and t two codes were stored. Codes can be seen in the images above. I elected not to have the sensor replaced as the check engine light was not always on. The rear end seems to whine between 30-50 mpg, but after 50 and before 30 make no noise. It only whines under acceleration. I was told it was "normal", but I thought it was worth mentioning. Cosmetically the interior is a 9.5 out of 10. The door panels had a couple cracks, and the dash had some fading. I had the dash and door panels re dyed. The cracks on the door panels were " repaired", but they can still be seen if you look hard enough. The leather seats are in great shape with no tears, rips, or cracks. The dash cap was cracked and removed. A black carpet dash cover will be included to protect cash from future sun damage. I order a dash cap, but returned it due to shipping damages. There is no dash cap included. Cosmetically the exterior is a 7.9 out of 10. The front bumper has some cracks in paint, chips, and scratches. The rear bumper has a few spider cracks. There are a few sun spots on the top of the rear quarters and doors. The pillar appears to have been painted and has a few bubbles and imperfections. Overall the paint is ok, but I started with the mechanical and did not get to having the paint work done. I had the car waxed when purchased and it helped out alot around the sun fade, but it has been months since it had new wax when pictures were taken. Functionally EVERYTHING works on the car with one exception. The driver seat is power and will not move forward or backward. It will move up and down, tilt forward and backward. The passenger seats move forward and backward fine. All gauges, knobs, interior and exterior lights, Air Conditioner, heater work fine. The headlights flip up and down fine, high beam and low beams all work. Radio attena self hides when radio is turned off. Center console tabs are intact and right. The under carriage of the car is rust free. The car is 100% factory, except the rear end gear ratio was changed to 3.43. The car needs to be "tuned" so the speedo is adjusted to the new gears. The air filter is a K&N filter. Everything else on the car is 100% factory. So this is a 2002 Firebird LS1 T Top automatic car with less than 92,000 miles. It can be driven anywhere as it sits. The car will be driven on the weekends until the car sells. I have a rear sub box that you can have with the car as well. It fits in the rear quarter section. I did not get around to having it installed. Spare tire is in the car. Questions Welcome. Clean title in hand. Selling to focus on building a home.
