Why is the security light on in my 1998 Firebird?

If the car has a computer chip on the key, then the key area around the chip contact is worn and the key needs to be replaced. Hope this helps

What is the Body style difference between 1967-68 firebirds?

The '67 has Front Turn Signals under the headlights, under the grill. The '67 has little front triangle windows for a two-part driver and passenger side window. The '67 has no rear side marker lights. The '67 has a light colored grill shroud, a bit grey.

The '68 has Front Corner Turn Signals that run around front to side. The '68 has a one piece side window (no triangle openers). The '68 has rear side marker lights fashioned in the likeness of a Pontiac symbol. The '68 has a dark colored grill shroud, black.

I know of no other significant body style differences. The wing window is the most obvious and is the easiest giveaway to indicate a 1967 Firebird.

How to get the ASC Build number for 2002 collector's edition trans am?

The special yellow plaque inside the car indicates the ASC build number. It is on the centre console, exact location depends on how the car is optioned - T-top vs convertible, auto vs standard, traction control or no traction control.

Musclecargt71: No such plaque exists from the factory. The yellow plaques you see in pictures are aftermarket, custom made when you know your number. So no....there is no interior, or exterior for that matter, way to determine the number.
