Hey guys!
I currently have a 2002 Pontiac Trans Am Firehawk that I use as a toy and to show. Recently, I got the itch to add a convertible to show along with the hawk, and found an Orange 2008 GXP with 7,200 miles on her. They were asking $19,995 for it.
I went to look and shes in really good shape. I test drove her, and there is a dash rattle somewhere on the left of the dash (after reading here, likely the trim rings around the gauges) and I could tell the clutch needs service as there is some slight shudder when going off in 1st (had this in a previous vehicle, flywheel was warped and needed resurfacing.) Id have the whole clutch redone while they were in there.
My questions are- Is there a good chance I can clear up the dash rattle? As far as the clutch goes, I had the seller agree to come down to $18,500 due to the clutch work needed.
What do you think? Green light?
Thanks for your opinions!
