I bought a 1989 Firebird Formula WS6 yesterday. Unfortunately I can't drive it home until I get tags and proof of insurance, since the previous owner had just bought it to use as a race car so he didn't register or get plates I can't use his and mail them back (though he offered plates to a '91 Chrysler Somethingorother). The previous owner is keeping it in his garage until I get that stuff, and until I'm free to get up there again. I should have it next Saturday. I'll have pics then.

And yeah, WS6 has been offered on Firebirds for a while.

I've seen WS6 on 70's T/As.

My stepdad's getting temp tags tomorrow, then I wait for proof of insurance.

Very cool! Pics required as soon as you can. I like Formulas.

WS6 is a performance suspension package on Firebirds and has been around since the 70s. It generally consisted of larger front/rear sway bars, stiffer springs, and four-wheel disc brakes. In its latest inception on the 93-02 Trans AM it also consisted of a ram air package and larger wheels/tires. I had a 1983 Trans AM that had the WS6 suspension package on it and both my 1988 GTA and my wife's 1990 Formula also have the WS6 suspension package.

see...you learn something new everyday!
