RPO code question
I have recently aquired a 97 trans am it has no front end sheetmetal because the previous owner had a 02 front end on it. I am in the proccess of restoreing the car and i have grown curious as to what exactly it is, it has a ws6 badge on the back but it has a ws9 rpo code on the drivers door. Any info is appreciated. Also does anyone know where i can have a place check my vin to see what it is?

WS9 is the code for the V8 'conversion' of a firebird. they all start out as firebirds. add a V8 (regardless of formula or trans am), and it gets the WS9 RPO code, and becomes either a formula or TA, depending on other options of course.
IF the RPO sticker is still original, there should be a WS6 code, meaning it was originally a WS6.

According to this link: https://ls1tech.com/forums/racers-lo...n-numbers.html your car is 1 of 9 and is the rarest on the list. Im not sure if all nine of those had the same color top so it may break down further.

after checking compnine... mine is 1 of 1 with my particular option string.
i wish my search would have been as quick... but i did confirm after a solid week of searching thru the GMVIS system (what a PITA) and i was able to sort it a little better.
