blue98ls1 Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 I found an 87 trans am ws6 that I really like and i'm considering buying, but I was wondering what some of the common problems are with them. I know absolutely nothing about pontiacs, so any information you have would be great. A little about the car i'm looking at: 97xxx miles, Automatic 305, Hooker headers, Magnaflow exhaust 3" piping, Fiberglass Ram-Air Hood, Fiberglass wing, Remote Starter/Door lock/unlock. Just had a tune up w/NGK Iridium plugs, wires, etc. Matrix Bucket seats (comes with stock too) All options, including t-bar set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1647545494 Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 the main problem is leaky t-tops other than that just general stuff like you have with any old car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V8 Beast Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 the main problem is leaky t-tops Nothing a Macguyver mod wouldnt fix The big question is how much they are charging for it, and how hard it was beat on over the years. For the right price it would be a nice car to play in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue98ls1 Posted March 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 I'm looking at it as a fun summer car. Something I won't keep forever and is ok if it gets scratched or crashes. Something that actually has mods available that are worth the money, unlike my SVX's/928. I don't want to put 6k into a car for 1 1/2 seconds better in the 1/4 mile. I don't know if that will be this car, or if i'll continue looking around. This particular car seems like its in pretty good shape, and has been well taken care of. http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x123/wannarace928/xt6/IMG_0695-1.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copperhead Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 That thing looks to be in pretty good shape. The 305 was a dog, but any small block can drop right in. Also, your sig is too wide.

2 Sweet Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Looks like a really nice car. I'm assuming that the 305 is TPI. Not the fastest thing, but like copperhead said, a simple engine swap will do wonders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l36tols1 Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Please put a different hood on that car if you get it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
