What's up guys, my names Josh, I'm 18, freshman in college, I live in Amarillo and I just purchased my first ls1 powered vehicle. Let's start off by saying it's SICK! I won't go back to any other vehicle now. After months of looking for the perfect, unmolested, non-kid owned Trans Am, I found a one owner, old lady owned (65), unmolested 2000 Trans Am WS6 bone stock besides flow master muffler with 82,000 miles on it for $8,000. So far I just have the red Pontiac emblem on the steering wheel and the Firebird on the Tach, but there's MANY more mods to come Not exactly sure where to put this if it doesn't belong here but feel free to move it and direct me around (I'm new here from the Ford forums ) Well here she is, just needs a good clean and wax, floor mats, and new Trans Am Firebird on the trunk and she's good to go!

Welcome! Nice purchase, and very smart buying an unmolested example. I do have to question the prior ownership though. An older woman owning a WS6 is unusual to start with, but then to have a Flowmaster exhaust as well?? I bet if you did a little digging, someone other than 'grandma' was driving this car. Enjoy!!

Haha, I have full intentions to bro, I'm about to order long tube headers w/ no cats and ORY, Borla cat-back, EGR and AIR delete kit, SLP air lid, and get it dyne tuned. As far as stall converters, throttle body's, intake manifolds, cams, etc I'm just leaving mine the way they are, I just want to do what's posted above, the car stock is gnarly fast to me, I just want a little more oomph out of it if your know what I mean. I'm still in college and money's a little tight so I can't go ***** out on it yet. But I'm loving it so far!
