2002 WS6 - Lots of mods I'm curious to see what a good asking price would be for this car, and what it would likely sell for.
Thanks!
2002 Trans Am WS6
Black, manual Transmission
Less than 22,000 miles
**I’m posting this a little early, as I still need to get a front end alignment done on the car, since installing the new front suspension**
The car has been babied its entire life. I am the 3rd owner. It was bone stock except for the cat-back exhaust when I purchased it.
It was a Sunday driver up until that point. I have only put a few thousand miles on it, since purchasing the car in 2005-2006. I've spent most of my time modifying the car. The reason for selling is that I've been presented with the opportunity to purchase a car that’s been in my family for a long time, one of those once in a lifetime opportunities.
I have a lot of money invested into this car, but I want to have this car sold before winter, so I can get the Model A.
I have all of the original parts off of this car, including the factory hood. You will need a full size pickup to hold everything else.
This project has been very enjoyable and I hate to sell the car, but it's a once in a lifetime opportunity to purchase the other vehicle.
You can see that most of the modifications have very little miles. Much of the modifications have been done over the past year and have little to no miles on them. I just don't have the time to finish things quickly or drive the car anymore.
No joy rides of any sort. The new clutch only has less than 10 miles on it right now, so you can't get on it, as it is still in the break-in period. Spec recommends a minimum of 500 miles break-in period of city driving.
Car must be paid in full with all funds cleared before I will release the title.
Would make a great car for someone looking for a street/strip vehicle, or looking for a very clean strip car.
Things to note, in case anyone is skimming the add:
Power steering has been removed and replaced with a Spohn manual steering rack.
Air Conditioning has been removed (Was in working condition, never used it, decided to clean up the engine bay and reduce weight)
ABS has been removed (same reason as A/C)
The body is in excellent condition. No dings or dents. Little to no scratches anywhere on the car - it's just very dirty, from being stored most of it's life.
Thank you for looking and feel free to ask questions.

OMG!! Not another low mileage heavily modded car!! You must read some of the other posts here for your own benefit.
First off, get that Model A so you won't regret it the rest of your life. Do not pass it up if you want it real bad. Get a loan if necessary.
You have an incredible low mileage car there except for the typical panel crack. After that excellent write-up you said it was 'very dirty'. For heavens sake, don't ever write that. Wash and wax it and make it pop like your pictures.
KEEP THE CAR. You won't get close to what you have invested in it. It isn't happening right now in these times. You will even have trouble getting just the KBB value without any of the mods cost. Shocked??
I bet you are but you will find out the hard way unless you are very fortunate to find that one buyer that wants all that you have done, and has the big bucks to pay for it. Tough, tough younger market, a market with limited resources. Perhaps when the economy gets better there will be more of an active market but if you sold this car for more than KBB's $16,000 value I would would be quite surprised, and pleased to hear at the same time. Best of luck to you in your acquisition of the Model A.
