Here I'll post some of the pics for you.

(tip is put the mouse over the photo then highlite/right click one of the codes I did IMG the rest is easy)






Looks pretty nice

The Red Calipers and Hood Vents were done by a previous owner because they don't come that way. M6 car also makes it even more rare.

Thanks for putting the photos up for me, im use to just copy and pasting the pics from my photobucket album. I had a hunch the calipers and vent werent stock but whoever did them did a good job because they go with the car really well. car looks like it rolled off the assembly line just like this.

The interior is a little dirty and the car has formed a little rust under the paint on the back right wheel well from sitting outside all winter. Yesterday was the 1st time ive seen the car since last Dec when i blew the motor. Right now im on the fence about selling it and and using that money plus my bonus money to get a ls1 ws6 or keeping it and rebuild the motor. Its kinda hard to sell your first car and the car you learned to drive a stick in especially one that looks like this.

Your car is 1 of 2051 T/As with the WS6 option.

1996 is the first year a WS6 could be had with red leather interior.

I havent found how many came with your combo but I'm pretty sure VERY FEW.

Here's the '96 Firebird breakdown, only 120 T/A coupes had Red leather, not sure how many were WS6s.

The red actually looks pretty decent, even though I'm not really a fan of red interior. It's not over done, and the dash isn't red. The only way I think it could look better would be if the seats were black with red inserts.

Car looks sweet, grats on a rare car.

car looks good, def. do not sell it. You have a rare t/a on your hands, it's kinda funny because i had an oppurtunity to buy one just like that years ago but i decided to wait till i could afford an ls1. anyways they def. are very rare combos and if i where you, i would do a rebuild or a swap for an ls1 which you can obtain for pretty cheap these days considering everyones upgrading the swaps to ls2's and ls6 motors. It's up to you ofcourse but keep in mind GM is terminating the pontiac brand next year because of the bailout so the value of our cars will be getting higher as time goes on.

I plan on keeping this car for as long as i can. Bought it as my first car back in high school when i was 17 and it would be hard to let go. the only thing im worried about is the miles its got 150k on it and after rebuild i plan to drive the hell out of it no garage queen here. My budget for a rebuild is going to be around 7 grand so if anyone has any suggestions? Exhaust and clutch might be thrown into that budget also. Im not looking for anything crazy just a mild set up street car that can be cruiser.

you can get a used ls1 motor complete with 40-60k miles for around 5-6k, or you can do a ridiculous rebuild and stroke the lt1 to a 383 or you can buy a cheap lt1 motor beef it slightly and throw a charger on it i mean the possibilities are endless my friend, i had to get my motor replaced on my ls1 due to vandalism (long story) but the insurance company found me a ls1 motor with 40k miles out an 01 ss for 4500.00 so you can def. get a deal somewhere
