98 BPM Firebird

Ok so im trying to trade for a Bright Purple Metallic Firebird. Its kinda rough but i want it for a daily driver plus the rarity of the color is cool also. Its gonna need new front fenders, a nose, pass foglight, rear bumper cover, hood, and it has a dent in both rear quarters. It has tan cloth, ttops, and its an auto. The interior is ok but it needs cleaned badly and its stained pretty bad in some spots. It also has a cracked dashpad but that doesnt bother me as mine im my ws6 cracked a couple months ago. It has a waterleak somewhere. No water in oil so its not a headgasket or intake gasket. Im thinking its the waterpump. Also the heatercore apparently busted and they cut the heatercore lines and ran them together to bypass it so those hoses and all with have to be replaced. They also sold the cat off it so its basically open manifold cause they didnt put any pipe back in there. Im trying to trade my extra t56 with all the parts like the clutch etc. it has around 8000 miles on it as its a rebuilt one out of my formula. I found a 98 red firebird with the appearance package locally for $3100 that was in pretty good shape. No body damage etc. Im really interested in the car for the fact no one else around here will have one but i dont want to get ripped just because is rare and the guy jacks the price up to high. I found one on craigslist for $1800 not around here though and he said that was a better deal than he could give me. So i know he wants over $1800. So im wondering what would you give for the car?

From the sounds of it, under $1k if it's dented, needs fenders and a bumper, ect. Tell the guy to go screw himself.

Thats what i was thinking. I think all the t56 parts and tranny should be an even trade.

I used to own a BPM '97 Z28. I LOVE that color!! It looks soooo good when waxed....

I do think that im going to try to get the car if the guy will work with me on it. I myself because i really like the color and all will probally go maybe 1500 or so. The t56 is probally worth around 1200 since its practically new and has all the extras. Atleast thats what im guessing. So i might throw a little something on top of that to get it.

sounds like the cars worth about a grand like said above. thats basically a totalled car lol.

Haha funny enough turns out the car is NBM instead of BPM anyways. So the rarity factor is out. I had only seen one pic of BPM and it was a dusk pic and it looked really similar to this color. Bright sunlight you can tell BPM for sure lol. After a wash and you can see the color good its def NBM. Which is still good as thats one of my favorite colors for a 4th gen. Still makes me feel dumb haha. Should have researched that color better but its so hard to come by pics of it lol. I also saw a NBM firebird on craigslist listed as a BPM. Messed me up a little lol.
