I'm not sure about the timeline , but evidently within the past year or so.
All I really know is its definitely documented properly as Ram II .
I have a copy of the PHS from the past , but its trapped in a worn out laptop.
Not sure what the new owner wants to share on it , or if the shop wants any publicity about
the cars being there.
Its a major known high end facility and the cars will be primo .
If I am recalling correctly - the added cost to #347 , for Ram II upgrade , was handled in the special equipment charge box .
Not handwritten memos like we have seen on a few of the other early documented cars.
The most amazing and genuine cross reference for documenting the car is at first only the block was discovered.
Automatic coded Ram II block ,,,, okay cool find.
Then the PHS by sending in the VIN from the block.
Oh Boy .... Shocker !
That's when he contacted me.
Told him it was too far out to go public yet , and having the actual car would mean a lot more overall than just telling about a block with mind blowing PHS.
He was already in process of locating the car - eventually it was located - and he eventually bought it.
I wasn't really looking forward to piecing this together for you guys back then , or even how to present it.
It sort of drifted from my memory after a while.
Until a conversation yesterday
Just to refresh everyone - all RA option #347 1968 GTO's were to have 4.33 gears
Whether Ram1 or Ram2 , Auto or 4spd
AC was not an available option with #347 engine option.
2.93 axle with AC is just asking for a bath in gasoline with some of the flint sparking nay sayers.
