You won't find a flimsy, aftermarket-written, generic, maintenance manual attempting to cover a whole generation of models here. This is a serious, comprehensive resource which packs a hefty, 1,826 pages. That's because it includes a chassis section and a body section. Many competitors' inferior copies do NOT include both. THIS publisher, Detroit Iron, not only includes ALL of the content from the original source, but they use industry-leading, digital technology and superior materials to create the finest reprinted manuals on the market.

You'll find dark text against clean backgrounds, and Detroit Iron has maintained the excellent quality of the numerous and varied visual aids found throughout this helpful guide.

See for yourself. Please scroll down to view three sample pages demonstrating the outstanding quality and effective use of the visual tools. The first example shows three illustrations, including an exploded-view, from the engine section. The second showcases another helpful exploded-view diagram (from the automatic transmission chapter). The third sample page comes from the electronic section and displays one of the many, excellent circuit diagrams. By breaking the electrical system into individual circuits, a tremendous amount of detail is presented and the various jobs are nicely isolated.

In 1988, Pontiac continued tweaking their popular third-generation F-body models. There were few major changes, mostly because these cars already had sharp styling, top-notch handling and solid performance for their time. They looked and sounded great. These cars frequently implemented new technologies. Carburetors were gone for good as these machines evolved. Whichever model you have, this 1988 Pontiac Firebird Chassis & Body Service Manual has the details you'll need to keep the good times rolling.

At the box office, in 1988, people were enjoying the comedy film "License to Drive", which featured the Billy Ocean hit song, "Get Outta My Dreams, Get Into My Car";. There were certainly many dreamers who longed for a license and a new Firebird that year. You may not sing like Billy Ocean, but these powerful Trans Am and Formula models can certainly make waves. For just a few clams, you can own the definitive guide to getting and keeping your Firebird at its best.
