Hello, I hate to do this but it's finally time to sell my pride and joy that I have owned for over 8 years. This description is going to get a little long but please read entire description carefully. I have a 1996 Pontiac Trans Am WS6 for sale. The car is in excellent condition and is probably one of the best of this era you will ever find! Only around 62,000 original miles for a 1996! The car is insured through Hagerty insurance for $25,000 and was recently appraised for $27,000. There is over $30,000 invested into this car. Car can run 12's at over 110 mph. with no trouble and made over 440HP TO THE REAR WHEELS. Blower goes from 8-24 psi and is only at 8 now. With a build motor this car is capable of over 1,000 hp. The car has every option, all power, I am the 4th owner and the previous owner basically restored the entire car from top to bottom with no expense spared. Car has zero rust, bondo, cracks, dents, or chips. Every interior clip and panel was replaced new from gm. The car has very subtle ghost flames on the hood that were added when the car was repainted with a $5,500 dollar paint job with original dupont base coat and dupont hyper clear which is very hard to scratch. The underside of this car is so clean you can eat off it, not matter where you look there is no leaks or dust or dirt at all. Everything is powdercoated and base/clear. Car has never seen, snow, rain, cold weather, major highways, smoking, always stored inside. Interior is near perfect down to the original floor mats with gm logos. The rear spoiler and rear tail lights ect. have been upgraded to 98-02 ones which really improve the look of the car.

The following are things I have done to the car in the last 8 years I have owned it:

-new fan motors and rewired fans to hidden switches under dash (due to the retune and the blower is is required to override fans with switch to keep car cooler, works great, no big deal)
-always changed oil with royal purple synthetic and premium filter and used stabil for winter storage and injector cleaner when car came out
-replace headlight module with a used one
-new driver and passenger window motors
-replaced coolant level sensor
-car has monsoon stereo and I installed a double din direct fit pioneer cd player with remote and case (have original monsoon radio but cd player does not work in it) (Pioneer is in car now, the pic was taken when stock deck was still in car)
-changed spark plugs with NGK TR6's
-changed both 02 sensors
-custom painted brake calipers
-changed fuel filter
-replaced header gaskets, and collector gaskets and bolts
-installed a casper fuel pump wire harness upgrade
-installed a SLP line lock brake control kit
-changed oil in supercharger and supercharger belt (just for maint. purposes)
-installed a vortex t-rex inline fuel pump for better fuel pressure
-installed a red top optima battery
-replaced coolant overflow bottle and battery tray and cap
-replaced throttle body elbow and all vacume caps and plugs
-replaced throttle position sensor
-replace idle air control valve
-less then 2 years ago I replaced the MSD box because the other one went bad
-also less then 2 years ago the serp belt, a/c compressor, expansion valve, and dryer were all replaced and system was vacummed down and recharged

Extras:

I am not done yet as I have plenty of extras to go with the car.

-2 sets of keys with remotes
-extra supercharger oil and a belt ($200.00)
-a $400.00 custom fit car cover with plastic bin to keep it in in the summer when it's off
-original owners manual
-a complete set of factory service manuals
-tons of brochures and flyers and ads and articles about the trans. am ws6 (all come with the car)
-THIS CAR IS FULLY DOCUMENTED WITH 2 BINDERS FULL OF RECEIPTS AND RECORDS OF EVERYTHING THAT HAS BEEN DONE WITH ORIGINAL INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS AND EVERYTHING
-Title is free and clear with no liens or anything!!!

Now for the negatives: The only thing I can say bad about this car is it does show some signs or wear here and there as it is a used car such as a little wear on the drivers seat bolster and the fuel gauge does not work. This is common and I just never got around to fixing it. I use the odometer to know when I need to fuel up. Always run premium fuel only!

Please serious buyers only. I am not here to play games!!! I am a honest person and I expect the same from you! Cash in hand or certified bank check only! We WILL go to bank together to do title and to make sure funds are legit! I am not willing to ship this car. You must come pick it up, drive it away, trailer it away, pay a company to trailer it, whatever! Please no trades!!!

This car was built right and reliable, not all chopped up, it has a "safe" tune for the street and is a nice car to take to the track or a local car show. Has won awards at several shows.

If you have any questions you can call Joe at 330-501-0247

Thanks!!!
