What Company Built the WS6???
I have been a Camaro Guy my whole life. I know that SLP built the SS Camaro's. I just got a killer deal on a WS6 and was woundering what company built the WS6 SLP? I am just wanting to be more informed on the history of the WS6 and what all went it to them.

I happened to come across this post and began to ponder an answer.
Here is what I found :
02 NBM TA WS6 package has a line on the build sheet that states
CAF - HANDLING CHARGE-ST. THERESE TO AMERICAN SUNROOF
02 41U Black Firehawk Formula WS9 WU6 has a line on its build sheet :
CAE - HANDLING CHG-ST. THERESE TO TO SLP LASALLE QUEBEC
The cars went to the alternate locations for parts swap, hood, air box, wheels. Then on to dealers.
Any questions?

97 and older WS-6's WERE built by SLP along with SS's, Firehawk's and Comp T/A's. In 98 and up WS-6's were built by pontiac i thought that page about ASC says nothing about the WS-6, Firehawks and SS's were still built by SLP.

ASC stands for AMERICAN SUNROOF CORP and they did all the WS6 conversions from 98-02
