Hey Guys, just thought i would post some picts of my 87 vert,

 

Sharp looking ride you have there. Thanks for the pics. Don't be shy of posting more!

 

Here is a few more:

 

Yeah im trying to find out more of the history of it, i do have a copy of the build sheet which I will scan on here as well, also if you look at the picture with the dash, around the radio pod you will see an orange blur, it says special edition 0412 i have no idea what that means

 

looks very nice! Except that abomination of a plate....I'd just run without it

 

Yeah i will probably take try and take it off this year, Wisconsin is pretty hard core about running front license plates

Does anyone know how many of these were made?

 

Be interesting to see if someone knows what that # is for. Been having an eye out for more 87 GTA Verts have seen photos of 3 others besides yours. The Flame Red is mine.

How do you put the photos in instead of the file?

 

According to ASC they made a total of about 173 Firebird Verts in 1987. Of those the majority were GTA's or Trans Am's. The number 412 is interesting as they did not make that many according to ASC. In 1986 & 1987 prior to the Camaro being officially offered thru Chevrolet they numbered those cars as well and I am not sure if they simply carried over the number from Firebird to Camaro with no regard for the line.

Love those rear spilers on those cars...do you have a closer pic of it/ plus, I'd like to have a close look at that brake light.

 

Actually the Spoiler is the Base Firebirds spoiler/wing in 1987 they simply cut off the ends and then filled the ends with Bondo. Why they did not use the Factory high mount brake light is beyond me... Probably because the shape of the trunk is different than the hatch...
