I've got one. Mayfair Maize. 4 Speed. I am the third owner and have had it since 1985. It was purchased New in Ocala Florida at Dingman Pontiac. I dont have the date of the sale but its here somewhere. Heads are marked R A on the end exhaust ports, next time I have the valve covers off I will note the date code. It has the upper and lower air cleaner housings. Still has the Cast Exhaust Manifolds, I thought I was going to install headers but glad I didnt. I didn't know what I had, neither did the guy I bought it from, I knew the hood was functional though. After I bought it, I figured it out, remember this is before the "net". It didn't have the original 400 or the correct carb (holley) and at the time I wanted to go fast,(young and stupid) so I installed a 428 short block and put the RAII heads on, with Comp Cams stamped roller tipped rockers and a new Ram Air IV cam. I did get a 68 Q jet and cast iron intake installed on it, the rear had been replaced with a 12 bolt 3.73 Posi Traction Camaro unit. It didn't have a console and I found one at a swap meet and added a rear Camaro Spoiler. I put the battery in the trunk. Thats the only mods I have made. Sometimes I think I want Rally 1 wheels but the Rally 2 wheels are good. I think I want redlines, but I cant see paying that kind of money for them. I also replaced the radiator with a Aluminum unit that looks like the oem stamping and I painted it black to blend in. It had 4 wheel drums and I replaced the front with Camaro Disc brakes, next is a power booster. VIN is 22337U170085

Very cool.

Here's a few pictures of the RA I 68 firebird that Hot Rod Magazine did its performance test on in 1968. Fully documented. I took these two weeks ago. Hopefully these pictures attach correctly. Hot Rod's best quarter run was 14.3 in the quarter mile.

I would say that car looks nice as is, and even better knowing it's a RAIi 4 speed with a 4:33...

Thanks for the pix!
