1990 firebird formal?

I did the vin and it said that it was a firebird with a l0e TBI.It has the stickers.they say formal on both doors and 5.0 fuel injection on both sides of the bulge on the hood.Is it really a formal that was upgraded or a clone?

RPO Code

Good one cargasm. Hey Jase, I think I found it. You'll need to check your rpo codes. You should be looking for an rpo code ws9. As far as I can tell, this designates your car as a Formula. The vin number doesn't specify between a Firebird or a Formula Firebird. I hope this helps.

Another RPO

...also check for rpo code w66. This designates the Formula Merchandised Package. Good luck.

I guess '91-'92 Z28s had the Formal package when you consider the black "bowtie" grill.
