Default Re: 1969 Trans Am Convert Clone

Very true. The 1969 Trans Am was essenially a striped and winged 1969 Firebird 400, with the same options available on both cars. But where the 69 Judge was just a GTO with a wild paint color, stripes, emblems, and a wing, there was really no mechanical differences between the GTO and the Judge.

The 1969 Trans Am, like the Judge, had a unique paint job and a rear wing, but the Trans Am did actually have some additional special parts.

The 1969 Trans Am used a special hood with long, tapered scoops, and the front fenders had functional air extractors. There was also a special front spoiler (basically a piece of flat Lexan) that kept the nose down at high speeds. All three of these items had special part numbers.

And contrary to popular belief, the 1969 Trans Am did not have a rear sway bar.
