Y84 is a black Special Edition with Fisher T-tops (Y82 is with Hurst T-tops) for 1978

From the Hoghead's website:

"Y84 replaced code Y82 on some 1978 black special editions and all of them in 1979-81. Many of these cars have Y84 stamped on the cowl tag, and I believe they all had T-tops in 1978. Y84's were available without T-tops in 1979, 1980 and 1981, and those cars are rare today. Thanks to Mike Farrell for providing me a copy of the build sheet from his 1979 non-T-top 4-speed Y-84. His car has the Y84 code. Published production records state that all the 79's had t-tops, but these records are well known to be wrong. I'm not sure about the 1978's. I could say they didn't make any, but who knows? Maybe one will turn up. Back to Top See also Hoghead's Bandit Trans Am Page"
