[Baron Von Zeppelin]

All I can get to load/view is the homepage with the 1975 photo and a short story. The photo album page was blank on my browser - low speed dial up server.

Can one of you guys post a copy of the documents ? If there is an extra charge for special paint - it was done at the factory. If it just has an unusual paint code on PHS - it was probably delivered in primer. That would be rule of thumb geared towards Joe Public. Then to, there is possibility this Car had an intended purpose from factory in Black. Like a promotional, special event or show car.

Whoever owns the Red 72 TA / SCCA Prez car would love to have had this Black one in their collection too.

A good friend in High School (early 80's) had a Black 70 base Bird with rear spoiler and those same style chrome rims (Cragar S/S's) and narrow front/wide rear. Was the toughest looking Car around. But it looked a LOT better than it ran - stock 350 2bbl/auto.

BVZ, I can't save the images...hand written note on the bottom of the PHS cover sheet states: "Your Trans Am came from the factory with "Special Paint" (Code #1), Color unknown"

There isn't any special charges, or for that matter, any line item on the PHS for the paint. It just shows code 1 under the color at the top.
Also, car was invoiced to a CA dealer 2/3 weeks after build date (02D).

Hope it gets restored...

HTH,
