My WS6 is completely stock other than an SLP Loudmouth which it came with when I got it used from a dealer. Call me stupid but I have actually thought about putting a factory cat-back on it to keep it original.
Thats a good idea. I would do the same if I could find a decent price on the factory air intake set up and factory exhaust. I would keep the skip-shift elimnator tho...

My Z28 is stock, minus the SLP Lid and for now a Diablo, plus the FRA and a flowmaster 80 series muffler. I also put my brothers Stock Aluminum DS from his TA in place of my Steel one.

I do have a host of parts waiting to go on though. LS6 Intake, BMR TA, SS4k stall, Headers (which are on my SS right now) and a Catback. We'll see how long it takes me to make the car not so stock, I have no motivation.

Where abouts are you? I'd like to see your car. I've got a 99 WS6 as well, 24,5xx miles. Let me know if you're ever down for a meet. Almost forgo, I'm in the Hamilton area.

My T/A is bone stock except mufflers. I plan on keeping it that way asside from headers and intake. Money being the main reason.

Mine is stock except for lid, strut tower brace and front brakes converted to C-5 Corvette. Even the exhaust is still stock. It's my daily driver so I can't put it down for major alterations, and probably won't even when I can. I like it the way it is.

I've still got all the stock parts in the garage, if that counts.

These cars have too much headroom to go fast for me to stay stock - even if I didn't like modifying it as much as I do.

Bone stock, except for the fake WS6 hood and matching airbox. I'm not one of these "gotta keep it original because it'll be worth a zillion dollars on Barrett Jackson one day" delusional types, but I just don't see the need for 'modding-these cars were born winners from the factory...

100% stock. I even replaced the battery with another Delco and bought Goodyear tires (although GS-D3 instead of the GS-C). Just hit 20,000 miles and I like the car to represent what came from the factory. So few convertibles were made on top of that so keeping it stock makes it 'special'.

My camaro is still sitting on original rubber...I should probably get that fixed The old man I bought it from left it stock (except battery, non delco) all the way down to the skip shift, but it does have a catback now.

Same here man. My buddy Neil has a 2000 bud I hardly see him as he mostly hangs out with his own crowd of car people.

Let me know when you're down.

Yeah, I know, but the reason I bought a vert was to enjoy cruising with top down. I'll get a vette in the future for racing.

Stock Hawk # 472/10th # 110 except SLP Lid/smooth bellows and skip shift elim.
Fighting temptation to mod for 4yrs since its such a rare car but I want to heads/cam/headers/tune with a few suspension upgrades. aweful tempting but I should leave well enuf alone, its very enjoyable way she is.

Maybe buy another LS1 and play with it.
