My question is does anyone believe this is real, as in what he seems to think it is?
He claimed they had it for a couple years, that is enough time to do research. It has a lot of wrong parts on it. He never mentioned PHS. If PHS came back blank, he would say that, as that would help his case. All he has after a couple years are assumptions. Would GM put Ram Air V on the hood, I don't think they would. Back when these cars were new, owners would change engines when the car was only a couple years old. And add the stripe on the spoiler. Seems like a Ram Air III car with a motor change early in its life. Of coarse I still would love to have it. |

Years ago I was going to lunch ans in the inspection station saw a 69 Firebird orange with Judge stripes so I stopped to look at it hood was up. RAV guy was shocked I knew what it was. It had been one of the Gay brothers dealership in Dickinson 428 RAV heads.

Hard to see/tell but in Tom's picture I do not see the stripes painted on top of the rear wing and in the above posted video it is. Perhaps someone took liberities to do so down the road. I only looked at Tom's picture on my mobile phone and the resolution is not the grandest. But what a cool picture none the less and what terrific cars in the lineup...as well as the video V car.

Nice video, but I do not understand why they would not at least clean up the interior, looks like some mold is starting on the door panels, and if not cleaned, I could see the panels ending up with some permanent spotting or splotching. I had a 69 TA RAIII 4sp that had the exact same interior along with the stacked gauges, and the custom interior really makes the interior a lot more comfortable.
