This is the WS-6 T/A that I sold a year ago...
Sometimes, I wish I still had it!

Very nice car.
Unfortunately for me, I'm not that big on red. I passed a car once for the sole reason it was red.

I don't know how you did it but i could have never sold a car like that. Compared to that GTP it has about 85HP on it. GTP-240HP and the T/A- 325. That car is a monster. I was going to buy that before the GP, but it was a bit pricey.

Yea, the car was great, but we didn't really need to have it at the time. My wife bought it for me when were were dating, b/c she new I really wanted it, and I gave her my GTP to drive. ( Now that's Love )

I didn't really like the red either when I got it, red draws too much attention, but It did grow on me.

The T/A was a LOT faster than the GTP. The T/A had an extensive mod list. The eng. alone was LS1 that was bored .60 over, balanced and blueprinted bottom end, ported and polished heads, high flow plastic intake, SLP headers, SLP racing pcm. bigger cam, and a true dual 3" exhaust system, that was not street legal ( no cats). The transmission was built for racing, as you didn't have to use the clutch to up shift if you shifted in the range of 6000-6500 r.p.m. The car was lowered 2" all the way arround, and the door handles were filled in, w/ remote door popers, and hood poper.

I had the car put on a dyno when I first got it, and it cranked out right at 415 h.p. @ the rear wheels.
I did run it at Heartland Park 1/4 mile one time, and got 12.2 @ 119 m.p.h. w/ street tires. I was still loosing traction on the take off even after I did a burnout to warm up the tires. The tires were a hard rubber compound though, for max tire life.

Now, I still wish I had it, but I know that I will have another one some day.... A Black one.

At the time I was in the middle of a motor swap. Wife was out of work (no extra money)and to top it off I had to move from southern CA to Maine.

I didn't want it to sit in my driveway rusting away so I sold it to an enthusiest. It went to a good home. To this day it has won several awards.

ps
I did all the body work on that car under those awnings smile

Would you look at that I had another blue car!!
I thought my color choice was meer coinsedense. I guess it's a little deeper then that lol

Man dude, the WS-6 T/A is my ultimate dream car. I want one soooooo bad. I am crying over here to see that you sold it. I am definately going to get one of those as well as a 70 Dodge Charger. Not sure what model of the Charger I want yet, but I will have one.
