Default 1978 MVMA Specification Form Firebird

I ran across a copy of the 1978 MVMA Specification form for the '78 Firebird line up. If anyone knows a quick way to scan and post I will, or I can copy and mail out if you want one. Dad's brother bought a bunch of paper work out of dealer back in the early '80s, some reason they kept the MVMA's for all the '78 lineup.

If you don't know what a MVMA is, it's the specifications of everything on the car.

This is one is for the '77 Firebird I found online, https://auctions-media.hemmings.com/...EBIRD-MVMA.pdf

Sounds like a great find!

If you have an all-in-one type printer, they probably can scan easy.
How many pages are there?

50 pages, my printer / scanner is only a flatbed, one page at a time. When I get to work next week, I believe the main printer in the office can do what I want.

These are pretty interesting to look at, why would a dealer need all this information? Was it to help salesmen sell cars better?

Never heard of that before, pretty good amount of info. Saved the 77 one, looking forward to seeing the 78 version. Thanks

I don't think these were for dealers. I think all manufactures' had these books. It might have been required by the federal government. It has all kinds of information in them.

I scanned it off at work and have it in PDF format, but it's too big to post. Not sure how to break it up, if you know a way let me know. I can also send it by e-mail. I have '76, '77, and '78 Firebird, Lemans, and Pontiac versions.

Pick up a 78 press pack if you like that. More goodies plus photos.
