Exclamation need help..... firebird

Alright so there is a 1991 Pontiac formula firebird for sale around my area for 800 bucks ! I went and saw it and it has 125,000 miles, its an automatic, t-tops that dont leak, a little rust here and there, 3 inch dual cat back, its in desperate need of a paint job, it has cooper cobra tires on it. It also says it has ws6 performance suspension. It is a 305 v8... how much power are they making ? decent cars ? any major problems ? anything will help. I did look up some things but i would really like some input from you guys. I dont know if it should be under this category or not. so is 800 bucks worth it ? Thanks

Re: need help..... firebird

My third-gen trivia is not the greatest anymore since I haven't owned one in several years, but I believe the 305 TPI/automatic tranny car put out around 210-215 hp. For 800 bucks, I would go for it. Just be aware that a paint job and rust repair, depending on its severity, will run into some money down the line.
