There is a guy in the UK on the FGF email list who owns a 69 Firebird Sprint coupe built at Antwerp, VIN code "X". I think he said it's the third one he's owned, but I think the others were 68s. Andy is his first name, cannot recall the last name.

When he popped onto the list a few months back it was the first one I had heard of. Check out that Camaro link - it's about the building of Camaros in the Phillipines, but mentions GM Continental in Antwerp Belgium.
