Just picked up this 02 WS6 6 speed this summer for a song. Sold my 01 Z28. Getting hood painted in a week, had to wrap it to cover the airbrushed flames someone thought was a good idea lol

Just got it ready for winter storage so I put the factory rims back on, usually rock the OEM c5 Z06's.

Congrats Ape Man on your purchase. Glad to see you are returning it back to stock appearing. You can check vendors for a shorter short throw stick & a stock Hurst **** if you want to go that route. https://imgur.com/oW9Ds1J This is how it would look like. Post up when you get the paint work done.

I know what you mean, as I went with Firehawk chrome wheels on my ws6. Still like the stockers, but it was time for a change. https://imgur.com/14vzsaP Also note the Iroc spoiler. My ws6 is a Hawk wanna be.

Got mine the other day. Red/Black/T-Tops M6. Stock minus a Flowmaster the previous owner put on.

Gutting my 99 SS for mods. Because it needed to much love to keep.

I see some "Salad Shooter" rims! Not my favorite, but certainly unusual due to limited production of them.

Don't think I've ever noticed this thread.

I think I also may have just learned that salad shooters exist, lol.

Yeah, I already swapped them for the set of less popular Hurst Dazzlers but I like them. I am still keeping the salad shooters, kinda different looking.

I bought my 1st ws6 in 2000. On the lot was a black ws6 with salad shooters. Salesman made sure I saw them. Yes I did & told him he couldn't give me that car with those wheels on it. I don't care how rare they are, they are nasty looking. Ruined the look of a new black 2000 ws6.

That is exactly why they live in the shed now. Ugly but rare.

I like the Speedlines, as they were made for the car. Originated on the Comp TAs, but painted. Too many people put Vette wheels on their Trans Ams. But....Do what you like. Are you gonna leave the scoops flat?

Hood is back to gloss back and reinstalled

My 30th Anniversary Trans Am. I've owned it for 17 years(this Dec). It is #815 out of 1,000 made. Has just over 30k miles, don't ever plan on selling her.
