Hello! Been browsing ls1tech for a few months prior to buying the bird. Just got it yesterday, 99 light pewter metallic Trans Am M6. Got it with only 24k miles and it was previously owned by an older couple so it really has not been run AT ALL!! Will post some pictures tomorrow.

Later..

I'm over here in Lafayette. And I am definitely ready to start the whole modding experience, but I have to get used to the shifting (takeoff from stop is killing me) because my old car was an auto firebird. Anyway thanks for the replies

Nah man... it is completely stock and in perfect condition(Or at least I think, I wouldn't think the 70 year old wife that drove it messed with the engine to much). And to Phoenix, I'll make sure to PM you sometime. I have a friend who runs around with a group of car enthusiasts, you might have met him.

Anyway, took a few pics......
