Joined the forum to find a WS6 to buy - Mission Accomplished! Or... semi-accomplished
I've made a deposit on another member's modified 98 WS6 6M and bought the plane tickets to fly to SoCal and finish the deal. It has 79k miles and we've agreed on $8700 all said and done.
Last big road trip I embarked on was from Virginia Beach, VA, to Missoula, MT, last year in a 2002 Roush Stage 2 convertible. At 6'6", I won't even go into how god-awful cramped that mustang was. I know I'll fit better and go faster in an F-Body
I pick up the car Sept 20th!

I do have a question if someone can answer it...
The car has DRs on it. I need to drive 1200 miles and know that if it rains, I'm in trouble -I'm going through the desert though so I have my fingers crossed. But I'm also curious as to whether they can even go that far.
