The car is still in storage. I will take it out soon and have it appraised at the Volo Auto Museum. Once I do I will post with photos and a price.

I remember seeing that car with the original owner at the 2003 Firehawk Rally.
2002 Trans Am Firehawk Vert #25 Red w/Ebony Interior w/M6 1 of 19 built
2002 Trans Am Firehawk T-top #162 Sunset Orange Metallic w/Camel Interior 1 of 7
1978 Trans Am Martinique Blue w/Black Deluxe Interior Owned since 7/82

Re: The Very Last 2002 Formula Firehawk
Was it have WU6 in the RPO codes?
Re: The Very Last 2002 Formula Firehawk
I believe the car did not come with the WU6 code. Maybe the owner or maybe even the original owner "Camino LS6" will chime in.

IMO if it didn't come with the WU6 (and in turn doenst have a SLP number) then its NOT a Firehawk...its a Formula with left over Firehawk parts added to it (I don't care who added them.) Lets wait for an answer and a pic of the RPO code before having that discussion though.

This car has been verified by the Fire Association of America. Yes it was previously El Camino LS6.

Re: The Very Last 2002 Formula Firehawk
So, I have a 2002, #706. I have seen some specs saying #706 of 1501, and some say #706 of 1503. How to tell which figure is accurate?[
2002 Arctic White, #706

Sorry but if it doesn't have the RPO code WU6 it is NOT a real Firehawk. It's a formula with Firehawk parts added to it. There is no way you can make the claim it's a real Firehawk if it wasn't born a Firehawk....I don't care who added the parts. Period. The last Firehawk was #1501 because it was the last one with the RPO code WU6.
If a non Firehawk can have parts added to it and made a Firehawk what's to keep them from making #1506 or 1507 next week? I have a CETA with less than a 100 miles on it...can I send it to Dave and have him make it a real Firehawk? The last Firehawk and only CETA!!! Wow I would be rich. And yes it's the exact same thing.
Re: The Very Last 2002 Formula Firehawk
By this logic, the following cars are not real Firehawks:97ramsst wrote:Sorry but if it doesn't have the RPO code WU6 it is NOT a real Firehawk.
Code: Select all
All LT4 1997 Firehawk are not R6V cars
All 1994 Pilot cars are not R6V cars
One 1994 Firehawk SC was not a R6V car
Two 1994 Anniversary Firehawks are not R6V cars
All 1998/1999 Pilot cars are not WU6 Firehawks
All 2009 Firehawks, no RPO codes
There is a difference between taking parts second hand and building a car and having SLP build the car.

Re: The Very Last 2002 Formula Firehawk
IIRC there are a few 92 Hawks without the RPO code and there are 2 formulas out there that do have the RPO code but didn't get converted..Firehawk wrote:By this logic, the following cars are not real Firehawks:97ramsst wrote:Sorry but if it doesn't have the RPO code WU6 it is NOT a real Firehawk.I seem to remember one of the 1991/1992 didn't have the RPO code either.Code: Select all

Re: The Very Last 2002 Formula Firehawk
I did a bunch of research before purchasing this car in 2007. I have a Firehawk Certificate of Birth, Firehawk Alteration Invoice from SLP, Original Bill of Lading. Most important is a copy of an email from Reg Harris SLP Engineering manager to the original owner "Camino LS6" confirming it's authenticity as the VERY LAST FIREHAWK. This car also has been autographed on the strut housing by Edward Hambuger, President SLP, Reg Harris Manager SLP as well as others acknowledging the 11/25/02 build date at SLP.
I have posted a link to view pictures of the vehicle plus the supporting documents authenticating my Firehawk as the very last.
I look forward to your comments.
