85-89 Firebird 2.8... very strange hood?
I was at the local parts yard yesterday and I found what looks to be an 85-89 Firebird with a really neat hood. The car was a 2.8, had nearly no options, but had racing slicks on the back...
The hood looked stock, but when I opened it there was a blower fan on the inside of the cowl! Is this rare or am I just not too saavy on Firebirds?

Was it a hood like the formulaswith the teardrop scoop? V6 Birds came only with a base flat hood, no scoop or grilles. As far as the blower fan, sounds like someone rednecked up something for that.
