92 trans am?

See im trying to find a 92 trans am and I was wondering if there were any 92 T/A's that had t tops and a 350 TPI engine?( I know formulas has this setup and about 3 of the GTA's but I want to find a 92 T/A with a 350, but if they where not made I will try and find a nice 305 TPI with a 5 speed) Also what numbers and codes and where to check for to make sure the car is a 92 trans am.
Thanks for any info you guys can give me.

There were not 92 350/T-Top Firebird made in 92 except for the Formula's which we all know about. NO GTA's and NO T/A's. There were about a half dozen 91 GTA's made with that combo but no T/A's.

I'll bet you $1K......

If you ever find a 92 Firebird with L98, CC1, and any other model conversion than WS9, I'll pay you $1K.

WS4 is the model conversion for the Trans Am.

Proof? Give me a VIN? You can't lie either because I have the VIN's for ALL 1992 firebirds built so I'll know if it's real....

I'm just they don't exist. Until I see proof, I'll believe that til my death.....

I can tell you right now that ad is BS. Call, I bet it's either a 305 w/T's, a 350 w/C&C T's, or maybe even a 305 that had a 350 swapped in, it NOT factory though.

Are you sure you aren't thinking about 91's? I've said before that I know for a fact that atleast 3 white 1991 GTA's were made with the 350/T-Top combo. Are you sure you didn't read one of my old posts.....

92GTA look at the add and call the number, and ask the guy to take a pic of his rpo codes and send it to you!!!

if it checks out you owe me 1000 dollars ..

I have looked for that very car for 5 months and no luck. 305 5 speed cars are not that common, then when you narrow it down to 2 years and 1 body style you really get screwed. KAG has one, lucky bastard. All because I went to Jefferson on Sunday and not Saturday and he got it before me!!!!!
