I like the column shift, a lot of hemi cars and LS-6 Chevelle's were column shift.

One oddity I love in 69 Firebirds is the bench seat. It's a very rare option and puts three people in the front. You have to have a column shift, so the combo with the bench seat is awesome. It's kind of a cleaner look too with buckets.

The column shift on these high end Muscle Cars has become more and more acceptable . I like it and it’s super rare!

Well, 3 if they're young, slender and quite fond of each other. Otherwise, get a Bonneville.

I recall when I was about 18, a group of us friends in 3 cars driving from Long Island to Great Adventure park in New Jersey. In my 69 Firebird convertible were 6 of us, one seated on the console. The 120 mile trip back after a hot summer day in the park was a bit uncomfortable.

Good judgment comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgment.

The 69 Trans Am RAIV sold for 115K. I call this well bought but I have not seen it in person and I do not know of any issues others speak of.

You've got that right Gary! It may have had something to do with some state issued VIN number or something? Whatever it was the car basically sold for less than half price. Sounds like there were some pretty high-end shops that did some work on it over the years. Someone stole it regardless.
