Get a pic of the car and post the VIN, it probably has aftermarket T-tops.

The 350 was not released in the F-Body until 87

I personally knew of a 1990 Iroc that had a 350 and t-tops. Didn't believe him until I saw the SPID... too bad I never took a picture of it and he sold the car

the 350 was available with t-tops 87-90 and in 91-92 only Formula's cold be had with the combo if I remeber correctly, this of course only applies to factory equipped vehicles, I have seen my share of C&C aftermarket conversions.

I have the conversion on my 88 TA. It really doesn't make a too huge of a difference between C&C and stock ones. They both can leak.

I have heard of a few Firebirds and Camaro with a 350 engine and T-tops, but I only know this for sure. For the 1992 model year, you could not order a 350 engine and T-tops. That isn't to say they don't exist, but you couldn't order it that way. They story that I have heard is that they were running out (or had run out) of 305 engines, so they just substituted the 350 in it's place.

Not really true... you could order a Formy w/ a 350 and cross lace rims, it was kinda a work around, but you could order it for some reason. Camaros it is true, though.
