There are lots of Trans Am project cars for sale. They usually have needs such as paint and body or interior or engine work. These cars tend to be in the $3,000 to $8,000 range. They might not be number matching anymore and it might have a 455 where a 301 or 403 used to be. Some of them are quite nice. Just understand it will never be a #1 concours car because too many parts are missing. It usually takes about $10,000 to get into the kind of car that has some long range potential as a keeper. It may need interior renovation or a dash repair but the engine, tranny and axle is factory issue. Or conversely it might need a rebuild but the body is excellent.
