One of my Ex GFs had a hard top TA like that. The original decal on the hood was badly faded and I think she spent around $3,200 back in the 90s just to have the hood restored.

 

I think hers had the 400 with a TH400 automatic. Her dad was a huge Pontiac car guy and he put the TH400 in it when the Turbo 350 started slipping. Her dad had an old GTO and an older 1960s Firebird and one of the "new" 1994 Pontiac Trans Am 25th Anniversary Editions.
