They only made 27. SLP was going to make 100 each of the SS and Firehawk in '97 with LT4s. They got all the SS cars done, but ran out of time on the Firehawks so only 27 were done. If you get it you've got one of the most collectible 4th gens made! That's a car that will go for huge money on the auctions of tomorrow. Please don't screw it up with mods or even DRIVE it. You'll slap yourself when you see the money you lost. Good luck on getting it.

An LT4 Firehawk is the #1 f-body I want of all-time, followed by a 73 SD 455.

I know a guy selling a 100k+ 97 LT4 Hawk. It's better to have one that's been driven, than not have one at all! PM me if interested.

auto/stick it seems like a good find either way, go for it if it is in good condition.

I'd totally be all over it if I had some spare money. I still have to pay off my Formula, and I have a baby on the way in July, so I gotta convert a bedroom into a nursery.

How much is he asking for it, out of curiosity?

Not sure, he's been 'selling' it for a while. He's in no hurry to get rid of it. I think he just wants to focus on his other LT1 build-up car.

you sure it has an LT4? they didn't come in any WS6s. the guy would have had to either do an LT4 conversion or an engine swap.
