I tried getting a hold of the seller for VIN, etc., but haven't got through yet

In the meantime, are these pictures enough to know the factory trans/engine combination?

Ignore the listing price (>15,000USD), everything except water is sky-high here

You can be pretty sure that it is in fact a 5.0 liter engine. Over in Europe they get taxed by the size of the engine, so most of our cars had the smallest engine available in there.

Re: Please identify this T/A

You can find the VIN by searching on the reg number at the DMV

Merke og modell: PONTIAC FIREBIRD
Registreringsnummer: KZ 37262
Understellsnummer: 1G2FW87FXGL209***


Looks like some of the numbers might have been registered wrong, but the engine code is a
F = 305 LB9

When checking closer, the vin is correct for a 1986 model T/A.
So can not be a GTA.
