That's interesting, as it seems burgundy/red is a recommended combination (at least for 1968):

The website didn't have the 1967 info because it was a mid-year offering. Burgundy is &quot;N.&quot; </div></div>

Yes you are correct for 1968 BUT in 1967 she could not get it..... I will post the order forms as soon as I can scan them showing she had to re-order the car.

Well, please post the documents when you can. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

You had originally said that she ordered it with a burgundy exterior with red interior and they would not build it, implying there was something wrong with the color combo, but now I think your saying that Burgundy wasn't available, or it was a midyear offering.

The 1967 Firebirds debuted on February 23rd 1967, so it was already a mid-year car to start with. Burgundy was an RPO color on the 1967 Firebird, so I'm thinking there must be some other reason they would not build the car for her.

And yes, it's a beautiful car! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

your thoughts are wrong.... I never implied that .... I am stating a fact, it was ordered Burgandy with red interior and they would not build it for her. I have the paperwork to show that. I will post it when I get a chance.

Yeah, that's pretty interesting considering the info Mike posted also shows burgundy/red to be a factory recommended color.

Looking forward to seeing the paperwork!
