easy way to check : Does your ABS light come on when you turn on the key? It's the top left light in the clock surround

Other (more fun) way to check: Mash the brakes. If they lock up, you don't have ABS (at least that works)

Other, easy way to check: Pop the hood. Look to the left of the motor, beside the intake manifold. THere will be a BIG thing there that will say ABS on it somewhere, and have brake lines coming out of it. If it's not there (and it's pretty obvious if it is), then you don't have ABS.
