Don't have any good pics, but nonetheless..

First ls1... For sale AD

Couple weeks later or so.. Bolt ons..

Before I sold it... PRC ls6 heads, ms4 cam, ported 9090, 410s, 4400 VIG, xpipe 1 chambers etc etc etc

Day it went to get all mods pulled off..

When i bought it..

About 1 month later..

It is now about to receive D1SC and stray away from NA H/C setup.. Few months after that the 9" will go end.. Hopefully bottom end will hold up until I have the money for it.
Just bought HIDs for all lights.. Going to black out front bird, CETA mod, have some Corsa Tips to go on.. Have a **** ton of other small things going on with it..

Dave- Trans Am in a hardtop? Was it only ls1s that didn't have this option? I know firebirds/formulas can be had in hardtop, but I thought all TAs were Ttop/vert...?

Here's what the car looked like a few months after I bought it. It was bone stock in May of 04 when I brought it home. It just had a lid and catback in these shots.

Here's how it sits now.

I just added a grille and have a badge for the back thats not on yet. I'm also going to get some stripes for the side of the hood once I decide on a color, leaning towards just black right now.

Nope - strictly an option pre 96' (I believe) and personally I love have a hardtop as you don't see that many on the road.

More than likely it was pre 98. I know someone with a 96 T/A WS6 hardtop and i believe i've seen a 97 somewhere as well.

LS1 Sounds. Congratulations. You just made me decide to order the streetites in 17's for mine. That looks absolutely amazing. Hopefully it will look eaqually as nice on my red. Btw, what kind of suspension do you have?
