Charlie, have you've seen the "69 RAIV TA :" @ Barrett? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif

Re: 1969 RAIV Bird converts
 

Does anyone know how many RA IV non Judge GTO convertibles were produced?

Re: 1969 RAIV Bird converts
 

45 sticks & 14 autos https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif

Re: 1969 RAIV Bird converts
 

And how many actual judge GTO converts?

Isn't it 40 sticks?

Re: 1969 RAIV Bird converts
 

5 Judges. All sticks. On the Bird subject. 12 sticks & 5 autos, no TAs. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif

Re: 1969 RAIV Bird converts
 

So then it's 40 4-speeds that weren't Judges! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif

Re: 1969 RAIV Bird converts
 

I thnk Phil said he thought the RA4 TA at Barrett was the one from Ca. he was going to buy untill the seller disclosed that it was a re-body.

Re: 1969 RAIV Bird converts
 

If it's the column shift car from the bay area then it's true. The seller at that time didn't exactly come forward with info. He initially denied it being a rebody. It was when we told him we wanted to pull the cowl vent that he made the disclosure. I'm not sure if this is the same owner. With only 55 raIVs built it should go high unless everyone knows the truth. Too bad it's not the only high end rebody at auction next week.

Phil,

Did the factory put VIN's on the cowl vent on the 69 TA's. I found the VIN stamped upside down on my 69 and 70 Judge's heater box opening on the firewall. I didnt know they did firebirds. I have never noticed them before.

Re: 1969 RAIV Bird converts
 

Yes, Charlie & Phil are correct on status of 69 RAIV column
shift TA. When I had my 69 RAIV TA restored, I found the vin# stamped behind heater box & on top of the cowl. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/flag.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Re: 1969 RAIV Bird converts
 

The 70 birds only stamped behind the heater box.
