how to tell if I have a TA??

I have a 1992 firebird convertible that I believe is a trans am......but how do I tell......I think my insurance company said it was when they ran the vin number but how can I be for sure? It has a 305 auto in it.

First, run the VIN on the home page of Thirdgen.org. Next, do you have some pics?

In the VIN #

FS = Firebird or Formula
FW = Trans Am or GTA
