He will need your VIN number.

I'm surprised
I sent him my info on a Thursday and received my info the following Monday. I had heard that it could take up to two weeks to get anything back so I was like "wow!" when I got my info that quick.


I don't know what to tell you.....try emailing again, maybe something got crossed up or lost. Good Luck.

Well guys I emailed Marcus and here's what I found out (only a few days later)

"According to our records, your S/N 2G2FV22G4#### is a 2002 black WS6 with T-Tops and a manual transmission. It was converted by ASC June 22nd, 2001 and was our build number 1152.

The 2002 model year WS6 breakdown is:
12,517 "regular" (non-Collector Edition) WS6s built
10,888 T-Tops
6,622 manual transmissions
4,193 black

With your specific combination (black, T-Tops, manual trans), we built 2,071.

We received the regular Trans-Am’s from GM then converted them into WS-6 Trans-Am Firebirds. They received unique wheels, a new hood, special air-box, badges and trim. We then shipped the cars back to GM and they sent them to car dealers."

Pretty cool. I've been trying for a while to get this information and this was the first time I was successful!

Just email Marcus a real nice letter, ASKING nicely if he would PLEASE check to see if he has access to the information for your VIN and tell him how much you would APPRECIATE that documentation, and then just sit back and wait PATIENTLY.
They have no more Trans Ams to work on, so he has absolutely no gain, except that he is a good guy....and to me he was.
