Windward Blue (F), Carousel Red (T) and Goldenrod Yellow (W) were special order colors on 69 Firebird - under RPO code SPR. 72 is the code on the cowl tag for Carousel Red (T) and should be there rather than SPECIAL or - - .

That is a killer score. With some Torque Thrusts or what have you that is gonna be a real looker and mover. Would love one if I could extricate myself from my high torque living room steered with a thumb addiction.

Cool looking Bird.


Looks like it's in good shape.

On the cowl tag, is the date code 11B?
(Looks like it says 118)

Thanks for the cowl tag pic, and be nice to see the PHS.
