2000 Mecham Ws6 Trans Am Prototype One Of Two Mse Macho 34k Orig Miles 1 Owner on 2040-cars

    2000 Mecham WS6 Prototype one of two

One owner-34,581 original miles.

 I bought this car brand new in early 2000. At the time I was building supercars for Dennis Mecham at my shop. When I purchased the car, there were no provisions for building a Mecham WS6. One day I was talking with Dennis about one of the builds we were doing and he asked if I would like to turn my car into a Mecham car. I said, YES!!! I asked what number the car would be assigned and he said the number one! He also said the car would be a prototype! This car is the first 4th Gen Trans Am WS6 to ever be converted to one of the rarest of the breed. I remembered back in time when I was growing up, cruising Central Ave. and seeing a Macho T/A or a 3rd Gen MSE cruise by and always knew that I would own one some day.

 I was very fortunate that I got this opportunity and since I was the only contracted shop to build Mecham cars, I was able to build this one myself. AWESOME. I have all of the original documentation, window sticker, addendum sticker, build sheet, misc. doc's that come with a new car and the holy grail....the letter of authenticity signed by the man himself, Dennis Mecham. The letter also states that the car is a prototype. This is also the first F body to wear the Forged Weld wheels that were commissioned by Dennis for the new C5 DuMans Corvette. There were only 200 of these ever made, and these look new. The wheels are chrome, 18x10, and bear the name "MECHAM" on them. I asked Dennis for a set so I could see if they fit an F body. One five mm spacer and special extended lug nuts and it was all over but the drooling.  

 Here is a list of the Mecham equipment added at the time of the build:

Mecham Special air box lid

K&N air filter

JBA shorty headers

Prototype engine bay brace, this was never put into production due to cost, so this is the only one you will ever see.

Z06 clutch upgrade.

Mecham specific silver decal kit.

Polyurethane front and rear sway bar bushings and end link bushings.

Mecham specific lowering springs.

Mecham dash plaque, #001

Mecham specific muffler.

Mecham power oval exhaust tips that bear the Mecham name.

Mecham specific rear aero wing, actually produces down force and makes a huge difference in handling.

Performance alignment, Mecham specs.

18X10 Mecham forged Weld chrome wheels.

 Right now the car resides on the original WS6 wheels and tires. I mounted BFG 295/35ZR18's on the Weld wheels and since they were so rare, I only used them for certain events. If you like BF Goodrich tires, you know they have a real problem with dry rot. When you buy the car, the Weld wheels will be shipped inside the car and I will remove the old tires for you, I have my own tire equipment.

 Everything in the car works except for the normal failure to launch parts from Generous motors. The electric antenna is stuck in the "up" position and there is a small crack on top of both door interior trim panels. All of the fluids are Mobil One synthetics and I always stayed on top of oil changes. One Mecham option that I didn't install was the 373:1 gear set. Here in Arizona we have some really nice twisty roads, but they are high speed. I really liked the way the cars 342:1 gears worked, so they are still in the diff. I still have the 373's in the original container and they will be shipped inside the car should you decide that you want to install them. Good luck on the bidding, don't miss out on owning one of the rarest cars on the planet!!! 

The buyer is responsible for shipping. Once you have paid for the car, let me know who your shipper is and I will make the car accessible and will help them load the car. If you have any questions about the car, you can call me at 623-414-2964. If I don't answer, please leave a message and I will call you back asap.
