It's a trans am. I had the identical car brand new back then except mine had the turbine wheels that took the bowling ball hub caps. The cowl induction hood actually was functional back then although it didn't really do much. The 305 was somewhat underpowered for this car back then. 5.0 Mustangs used to leave me standing there.

You have a Trans am with cowl induction...I had a blue 1984 TA set up the same way..The best thing to do is pull out the mild 150hp.305 v8 and bolt in a warmed up 300 plus hp. 350,383 or 400 small block chevy.Then have Fun with a great car.!!!!!
