Re: Yellow 91 firebird

I'm fairly certain JY was a 92 only colour, and considering the seller doesn't have a title for that car, it's probably actually a 92. There's a member on here with a 92 JY Trans Am vert, he'll probably know for sure

Re: Yellow 91 firebird

Wadya bet it was manufactured in September - December 1991, so that's what shows on the title or door tag, but it would actually be a model year 1992.

Re: Yellow 91 firebird

The trans am is the blue one, the JY is most likely a 92 and is just a base bird with 305 tbi or 6 banger.

I have a JY trans am vert and JY formula

Re: Yellow 91 firebird

Re: Yellow 91 firebird

I have a '91 TA vert. Had it since new and the literature for that model year does not show JY as an available color for any model Fbody. It is either a repaint or a '92 Firebird - not a TA.

Re: Yellow 91 firebird

Yes, but the ad is for a "Yellow 91 Firebird". That was not an advertised color for 91. Maybe for 92 but not 91.

Re: Yellow 91 firebird

There is no record of a Yellow 1991 Firebird rolling off the line.

If someone got the VIN I could tell you what color it originally was... I am not that interested to do the work myself... So if you want to know, I will punch it into compnine.
