Re: 1988 Firebird Pro Am
I saw this one at a car show this summer.
Found some info.
The Pro-Am III Firebird was done by a company in Chattanooga, TN(Choo-Choo Customs). The cars are base V6 Firebirds with large "Pro-Am III" lettering on the doors. The stock hood got a fiberglass ram air scoop attached to the top (looking the Firehawk/WS6 hood), but it's not functional. It also got side skirts, a dual outlet muffler, a numbered plaque, two-tone paint, chrome 5-spoke 16" wheels (with the original base tires), and different bumper covers.

good Ol choo choo customs is not in business any more, so look for the pro/am serial number that they plaqued in the cab for authentication and if i runs good restore it, it's rare and a firebird lover would come calling for it.

Re: 1988 Firebird Pro Am
Don't know!got that info on the web,but here's another link that has one with a v8.
http://www.theformulasource.com/foru...howtopic=16674
I would guess you could have either one,it appears to not be limited to the v6.
Did this guy tell you it was numbered?
