Is it common for a T/A to have fold down rear seat?

Never seen or read any statistics on that but like every other Firebird, everything was on the menu for TAs, like any other 'Bird. Not sure about AC, though.

AC was available on '69 TAs, the RAIII version only however.

I wonder if this is the car that Uncle Judge had about 14 years ago?

I had the opportunity to visit an original owner of a 69 TA a few weeks ago and examine his car. It is a very well optioned car including fold down rear seat.

Regards,
Steve

For all '69 TA's? Only one with standard black interior? My TA has black standard interior.

I've seen the number of A/C equipped T/A's quoted as either 32 or 34 by different sources.

i have always heard 32 with a/c as for black interior, i have had two of them myself with black interior and still have one. there is no way that i have owned two of one of them. that figure has to be wrong. ( and both of them were standard interior.)

Was that one black referring to the RA IV cars?

No Uncle Judge never owned this car. As stated in the E-Bay listing, he's owned this car since 1984.The car not only has a fold-down , it has tach&gauges (stacked) as you refer to them.I've worked on this car.

Window sticker says rally gages so either the car didn't come with the stacked gages or the window sticker is wrong.
