			Yeah I have an 88TA, runs and drives.
 Rebuilt 305 TBI, put all of 3 miles on it so still needs to be broken in.
 New starter
 New battery
 New headliner
 All lights work, including fog lights and third brake light
 Floor pans good
 Exhaust pipes good
 Some vacuum hoses replaced, none cracked or dry
 New air filter, new PVC filter
 New battery cables
 All locks work, including trunk storage compartment
 All 4 TA wheels in good shape, wheel lock included
 T-tops dont leak
 Power windows work, though slowly
 
 
 Minor surface rust
 AC needs recharged
 Needs new tires - some tread left
 Radio needs to be hooked up
 ... basically the little things need to be hooked back up after rebuilding the engine and swapping out the interior from gray to black.
 
 I can provide pics of exterior and interior.
 
 EDIT: Clean title. The inspection sticker has lapsed, however all smog / exhaust stuff is on the car
 
 EDIT 2:  The engine temp sending unit is not hooked into the block, so the temp gauge on the dash doesn't show the engine temp.  I have the sending unit and the wire on the harness is there, I just didn't install it before dropping the rebuilt block back in.

			Well the current color is Silver Blue Metallic - the typical lighter blue with silver ground FX. The aerowing spoiler is red because I replaced the original wing which had rotted inside. The interior is all black. The intent was to go the black and gold route with the car at some point.
 EDIT:  Click my cardomain link below to get some pics of the car before I began work on it.

If you still aren't sure... don't.  Hang onto the car.  It's a special vehicle, despite the 350 in it.
  
What were your motivations for even considering it?  Tired of the car?  Looking for something different?  Be sure about your reasons and what you really want before committing to a trade or sale.
  
If you really want a third gen, and are willing to trade for one, let me know.  If not... cool.  Do whatcha gotta do.
