SS DNA

iTrader: (7)

I looked at my Year One magazine last night, I havent looked at it in a while, And on the Cover there is an LS1 Orage Camaro with a 435hp sticker on the hodd along with a 3rd Gen White Camaro with SS type hood and a What looks like a Mapple Red Firebird WS6 with Blackbird style charcoal rims....

Does anyone have pictures, info, or know how many where made and if there is any for sale ??????

Thanks !

Mine is about as close as it gets. A Maple Red WS6 built by GMMG. None were made from the factory from what I could research, but GMMG did build some. I have all original documentation on this car.

It currently IS for sale...
