Great pic of new '70 TA's on the lot
Found this picture recently, maybe it's been posted before. Six PW and one LB 1970 TA's brand new at the dealership! Plus the one parked on the street. I noticed he's missing the nose bird which got me thinking back to when my brother bought his 70 TA from a used car lot in 1972 (I own this car today). His car was missing the nose bird too. We wondered what was up with that and then soon found out there was an issue with the decal not sticking properly to the front bumper. Now it's know from TSB's at the time that a big chunk of these new TA's fell into two categories; one where the nose bird crinkled up and fell off, or the other where the factory decided to leave them off of new cars until the paint had a chance to cure. The VIN of mine shows it was in the early category where it was delivered with the bird decal, only to have it peel off later. I just love old pictures like this! John
