Can someone explain this F-Body to me??

It has the Trans AM Cladding and Front, but it has the Firebird Bonnet and wing. It's an Automatic too.

The model year is a 2002 and I have the VIN on my other phone, but was this a legit option package?

This is exactly opposite of how I'd want my Formula, so maybe somebody traded parts.

Light panel says Trans Am.

Panels probably swap right over between the two.
>>
>>14187179

The panels DO swap in place of one another. I'm wanting to see if there was a delete option on the Spoiler and Hood.

Camaro has the same doors and T Tops.

>>14187171

That's a Formula bud

Nah tripfaggot, this is a Formula.

look at the stocker on inside the driver's side doorjam.
shows the Codes for what model it acually is./

>>14187294

Shit, I didn't go inside. With GMs, can the VIN show that information?

the reason the trunk is like that is because its a convertible. only the hatch gets the wing
>>
>>14188293
This, I've owned both and the doors also are not the same.

Very rare but some some firehawks came with a spoiler like that.
>>
>>14187178
4th Gen Trans Am convertibles didn't get the high rise spoiler. It's a completely different trunk lid for the convertibles.

Although it's still a completely different trunk lid that was special only to the Firehawk.

You can swap your hood with the ws6 or firehawk.

This is even more rare only 139 of these were made.

Thanks for the help, Anons!

So it's most likely a T/A with a Formula hood?
>>
>>14190375
Looks that way, just check the vin if you really want to be sure. Either way its a sexy car.

No. Its just a convertible Trans Am.

As said before, the verts got that trunk lid with low spoiler. Firebird, Formula and Trans Am all had the same hood, the WS6 has the ram air hood.

SLP Firehawks were an exception. They went to SLP and were equipped with a different hood (requires trimming of front bumper cover), wheels, air lid, and in rare cases, this spoiler >>14188636 The Firehawks are individually numbered with a plaque on the center console.

Note: same hood on Trans Am and Firebird/Formula
>>14187171
>>14187265

Firehawk hood:
>>14188576

Pic related is my WS6 with ram air hood.

The only differences between a Formula and base Firebird is the Formula has an LS1 and says Formula on the doors while still saying Firebird on the rear tail light filler panel.

The Trans Am has different front and rear bumper covers, high rise spoiler and says Trans am on the doors and rear filler panel.

The door on all can be swapped
>>14187205 but Camaro doors will not, T-Tops yes.

What you see there OP is a very stock looking Convertible Trans Am, nothing added.

Any other questions?
>>
>>14187171
>but it has the Firebird Bonnet and wing.
Regular Trans Ams have that same hood, only WS6 and Firehawks got the larger hood. Also all convertibles use the V6 spoiler, otherwise you wouldn't see shit.
>>
>>14190552
>>14190814

Good looking, Fammo!!

I always had that oversight at the decklid, but I think most every LS1 Trans AM I've have been the WS6 package
>>
>>14190835
NP, thanks for your interest in 'Murrican Muscle.
>>
>>14190835
A lot of trans am guys get ramair aftermarket hoods.

This was the most Civilized and articulate thread I've ever experienced on /o/ or any of 4chan for that matter. I think I should just buy an F Body instead of swapping an old Japanese car to troll with.

Even the tripcode wasn't too bad.

A glimmer of hope in a bucket full of shit!

Vert trans ams only get that spoiler

>>14194180
/o/ has got the worst tripfag problem, at least out of the boards I browse. There is literally no need to use a trip except maybe for VINbro and longpost guy, and that's only because there are dumbasses who try to impersonate them despite them using trips. Every other faggot with a tripcode is just an attention whore that wants to make sure they have built some retarded identity for themselves. Anyone who anyone else would care about is easily identifiable by their car; there is literally zero need to use a tripcode.
