Default First Purchase LS1 98 WS6!!!

I posted earlier about a car buying checklist. Well this thing passed most of it and I had to pull the trigger.
The Car:
1998 WS6
Mods:
Some brand's lid
Flowmaster muffler, possibly catback
recently rebuilt TICK trans
Seems like it might have a 180 degree thermo as well.
107k miles
6500 is what i paid
Here is a pic tonight. Will give it a good detail then take more.
