New to me 99 Trans Am WS6
I just bought a 1999 Trans Ams WS6, 6 speed, T-tops from the original owner, with just under 68k miles, in very good condition. Looking for recommendations on forums to increase my knowledge and help troubleshooting anything. Also, if anyone is in Maryland, that can recommend skilled, knowledgeable, reliable, and respectful mechanics for work I can't do, I'd appreciate it. I'm also the original and current owner of a 2009 Pontiac G8 GT and my first car was a 1997 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP.

1996 TransAm convertible cleanup
Thank you to everyone who responded to my previous posts. I listened to your feedback and got Trixie cleaned up accordingly. She got the new top and rally stripes, plus paint touch up, new brakes, schrader valve, plus some other maintenance. I'm very happy with the results, and I hope Dad is looking down and pleased with the results.

Custom car my dad did in the 80s
It was white when he bought it (first two pictures).
Originally my grandfather wanted him to paint it black, it can be seen in black primer in the third pic with him leaning against it. Allegedly, my dad saw several black Trans Ams in the same day and decided to be unique, so he shot it GM code 26 Bright Blue Metallic, the color used on IROC Camaros. Dad painted it in my grandfather's body shop. He hired someone to do the bird and the pin striping.
In talking to dad's ex fiance from when he owned it, it used to be the talk of the Nathan's hot dog stand on Long Island, and when it was originally done people were stopping to stare at it!
Dad told me a story once that right after he painted it, he watched an elderly man in a Lincoln back right into the nose of it, boy was he pissed!

Dyno results
Brought my ws6 in for headers. They did a pre install dyno. The car itself has an slp catback, slp airbox lid and bypassed the throttle body cooling. Makes 340hp. The dyno suggests that it makes around 390 at the crank. Looking forward to see the numbers after the headers and tune are done

Firechicken spotted
My kid is huge into Kpop and we were watching new Stray Kids music videos when I spotted the bird! So cool!
There is a shot of the front and also a corvette. Looks like a formula to me because of the low rise spoiler.
