Love those cars so much. Really like the rare wheels its got too. Fix that front bumper and she will really be a looker.

Oh ya going to get that fixed here real soon and what you mean rare wheels?? They are just ws6 5 spokes right??

Those are the ws6 5 spoke, but they aren't the chrome ones. I think they are more rare than most.

Nice looking ride for the money, much better than the SS you were looking at.

All WS6s up thru '99 came w/ only the 17" RPO N66 wheels (except the '97 'verts which got 16" chrome P05 wheels, and the 30ths which got the blue QA9 wheels). Did the N66 wheels change from painted to polished between '97 and '98? Or did Pontiac offer both painted and polished wheels w/ the same RPO in '97 (was '97 a transition year where both were installed)?

I'm just thinking his wheels are really dull and need a good detail. But if you know something I don't, I'm all ears.

The wheels I think are just bare or machined aluminum with a polished lip ?

Nice buy man, I just sold my 93 trans am and it looked similar to yours. I was gonna get a audi a4 for gas but i miss my car so much even though i sold it 10 mins ago! Time to get a ls1 trans am hopefully!

96RAMAIRTA ...great looking t/a...love the WS6 's...LT1 or LS1...those are the same wheels i have on my 2000 WS6...high polished...and that's what i do to them, polish and wax them...lololol...that is a beautiful car, now will you change your user name to '97RAMAIRTA ?????....either paint the nose or get a bra , still i love the car and wish you the best with it...

forgot to say, with that cat-back and hooker headers that thing will sound awesome, since it's a LT1 they have a better sound to them then a LS1...i have both and with same exhaust the LT1 just sounds better, maybe it's because of a different firing order...

Thanks you got a sound clip?? I was a lil worried its be to loud and sound like Crap

no actually i don't have one and wouldn't know how to post it if i did...just talking about my own cars...never heard a LS1 with same exhaust on it as a LT1 sound better....i love the sound of my LT1...my boss has a shelby gt500 and told me that my car was one of the best sounding f-bodies he ever heard...never bragging here, just like the sound of LT1's is all...it's not quicker then my LS1, just sounds better....and after you get some time back home try ZYMOL CARBON wax on that black paint...

that is all i have ever used on my black cars.

The OP's car looks like it has 96 wheels.

Good save, my 97 was in similar shape when I picked it up. Some paint work went a long way. I found a set of 94 hawk wheels for it and pulled the factory 16's:

That a ws6?

Yes-I think there were 42 formula vert WS6's made. This one is in pretty good shape- needed lots of cosmetic work.

How is the interior in yours?

Trade you if it is! Lol just one tear on the drivers seat side bolster closest to door

I'll be holding in to this one- I really like the rare ones.

Nice that your interior is in good shape. Mine was the same way. Makes the restoration much easier

No kidding- where in Tx are you? I am in N Houston

No kidding- where in Tx are you? I am in N Houston

Im in the Woodlands,beautiful area near The Woodlands mall

1965GP...love your bird, had a '94 formula, same color as yours....loved that car, sadly traded it for a black /LS1 WS6...will never trade a car again, should have kept them both...

Crazy- I am in Spring about 10 min south of the Woodlands.

It's tough to get rid of them but I would have done the same- a black LS WS6 is one of the best looking cars ever.

1965GP...my wife wanted a black ram-air t/a...so i'm trained very well by her ..lolol...still miss it ...one of the best looking cars i have ever seen, as is yours...that WS6 gets washed and waxed once a week , every week ...gets treated better then me...

Luckily no cops say me the day i brought it home cause the tags were all out of date. Right now its sitting safely in my car port up at fort hood waiting for me. You guys over in north Houston wanna meet up some time for a cruise to galveston?
