Those were my thoughts EXACTLY,when I first saw those T/A pics.
Here's the story; The T/A's front spoilers were installed on the assembly line & to avoid damaging them during transport,the front suspension had temporary blocks/shims installed to allow for MORE front end ground clearance.
These were removed at the dealer when PDI was done.
The FOUR Brand New Birds were likely PDI's before the photo shoot but the T/A's front suspenion was left shimmed for the auto transporter trip to New Orleans & whoever was there from Pontiac (at the shoot) obviously had NO IDEA they were supposed to be removed!
That's the piece of literature that SHOULD have been the 1970 Firebird showroom brochure!
