i just got a 1989 Trans Am(not GTA), it has seen better days but there are quite a few good parts left. The car sat about 2-3 years with no ttops on, so the interior is shot, ill have to see about the wiring once i pull it apart, doors seemed solid pass fender good too, bumpers and hood are good as well. hatch is fine and has the foam aero wing with the normal cracked paint. wheels are junk, motor is a 350 tpi with a 700r4 tranny. since its an 89, the tpi does not have the provisions for the cold start injector but does have a MAF sensor. I will be taking the throttle body plenum and possibly runners, but the rest of the tpi parts(fuel rail, lower manifold, distributor, harness, ecm, etc) are available. I havent decided if i'll part with the longblock yet. serpentine belt drive is available. rear axle is a 10 bolt drum brakes, ill find out gear size and if its a posi or not.

The car is complete enough in my opinion that i would put another interior in it and throw a set of ttops on it and drive it, but there is no paperwork on the car, so its getting cut up. it seems to be a rare car with the ttops 350tpi and digital dash, but oh well, all cars gotta go to the big junkyard in the sky.

I'll post more info in about a week along with proces once i start tearing into it. I first have to strip apart my 88 Monte andmy 94 v6 camaro.
