That's right...this car was used in the GTO brochure that was printed in 9-69, and is shown on many of the pages. It doesn't talk about the VOE, but there is a picture of both pull knobs (pg. 10). It...

VOE was removed from the car before they could sell it to the public, so not reflected on the PHS's. There is evidence that the VOE pull cable and bracket were there as can be seen by the surface...

BVZ, hopefully these are a little more legible. Looks like 00028, no VOE listed, but Red Line G70's are. I don't see the Formula steering wheel either, but Custom Sport is. It looks like options were...
