tta or grand nat
both sweet cars,reason for the question i was in my dad grand nat when i was almost killed,
rear ended by a mack truck that was loaded 80 thousand pounds, car was toast, he has always likes the gn due to the turbo set-up, he now drives a 91 firebird and likes it but even being a tb 305 he still talks about the sound of the trurbo, so not sure what to due for him, so does anybudy know where and cars could be? tta or gn, thanks for any help

GN's are around; a friend of mine in Central Jersey has 4 of 'em. I have no idea where he finds the good deals though! I think he does a LOT of searching the local classifieds and Autotrader.
The TTA's are sweet cars, but highly collectible and probably very expensive (even more than a nice GN). Good luck on the hunt!

You trip on cheap 3rd gens all the time, build your own TTA.

Both are great cars so you can't go wrong with either one. I would get the TTA just due to rarity. They had a TTA up at TTP dyno day and rumor was it would be for sale. Looked pretty clean and was having some work done to freshen things up.

TTA's > GN's but its a win win either way. Id like the TTA cause of the handling factor.
