Years ago I was going to lunch ans in the inspection station saw a 69 Firebird orange with Judge stripes so I stopped to look at it hood was up. RAV guy was shocked I knew what it was. It had been one of the Gay brothers dealership in Dickinson 428 RAV heads.

Hard to see/tell but in Tom's picture I do not see the stripes painted on top of the rear wing and in the above posted video it is. Perhaps someone took liberities to do so down the road. I only looked at Tom's picture on my mobile phone and the resolution is not the grandest. But what a cool picture none the less and what terrific cars in the lineup...as well as the video V car.

Nice video, but I do not understand why they would not at least clean up the interior, looks like some mold is starting on the door panels, and if not cleaned, I could see the panels ending up with some permanent spotting or splotching. I had a 69 TA RAIII 4sp that had the exact same interior along with the stacked gauges, and the custom interior really makes the interior a lot more comfortable.

why and the hell would they let this truly rare car breakdown with age. Those plastics and vinyl's are off gassing and and deteriorating rapidly. Having this bird correctly cleaned and preserved will not hurt it's value.
