Unless you wanted a LIFETIME project (and paid $1.00 for it) where are you going to find the RARE parts to fix the special panels and badges and wheels for this mess!:shock:

lets see i dont know dick about computers and i can manage to make them fit the site with out throwing the computer. i have not bought an fbody in awhile as a parts car.
as far as parts on concerned, if you want it come get it talk is cheep everyone wants the parts after there gone, they are cheep to begin with, i want it all gone but not going to give them away just yet
i scraped the rims they were not safe and i still got $100 from the scrap man, the crome was peeling i would not use them, a
as far as smoking ss is concerned i tryed to buy his yukon got pissed off and bought the wife a brand new caravan, kept dicking arround since he did not own it and still had a note on it, even contacted the dealer to make appointment and got blown off so f-it,
i have picked up 2 monte carlo ss and sold both with no pics to a friend in staten island, asked a couple question and gave me the price for both,
as far as this tojan is concerned its going to go into the garage and sit there,
i have 1 monte carlo ss to get running, on elcamino to finnish up and 3 fbodys, one 89 iroc and one 91 z-28 convert, and the 89 formula 350.
and yes i have access to a salvage yard, 2 3 towning cmpanys for junk cars and a scrap guy that buys cars so what,,,
i have what i have due what i need to and get it dont dont like to wait but dont care about parts any more even though i still have a ton of parts, lets see someone come over and see whats left and tell me they can sell it all in a year and whats left is 1/3 of what i had,,, so its been a year going to take atleat 2 more.

what color was the one you saw before? and was it a convert? there is a white one in seaside park but its a hardtop and white, just sitting in the driveway and will not sell it i have tryed,

dont care about cars or people anymore, cant pleases everyone all the time, plus there is more going on in my personal life then whats known on the board, and i am still not well from the hit last year, and my shoulder is ok but not where it needs to be and my hand is in the same boat, but i still have more injurys from the hit,

I have dealt with Ted before, and yes it is a slightly different experience to what some of us may go through on here with other sellers. As a buyer you have to understand that every situation will not be the same. It's not like buying from an online store. With that being said I purchased an item off Ted which arrived in as-described condition. When I pulled the trigger and decided I wanted the item it arrived very quickly and was very well packaged. Could not have been better. So the overall experience is more on the perception of the buyer in my opinion.

Guys, the place to give feedback for a buyer or seller is with iTrader. Please don't do that in a thread like this. Then I gotta axe it as per the rules, and I don't want to do that.

Tojans were 3rd gen Firebirds that were modded by an aftermarket company. Definite "Love it or hate it" styling, even for those of us who like 3rd gens. No performance mods IIRC, just interior and exterior cosmetics.
