I would think the 69 RAIV bird should be top speed dog. It had the long branch manifolds & lighter body than GTO.

My two other round port ride experiences were both cars owned by Mitch Adams, now dead. He had a regular RAIV 69 GTO that I rode in, just unbelievably fast!!!! I would say it was the most memorable passenger seat ride I have ever taken.

The second was a RAII 68 GTO that I drove for many miles, I liked it but I couldn't tell much difference from a normal D port car. Gary now has that one locked away.

One red/auto one w/low miles is around. It was sold here new in Pittsburgh. It's tied up in a collection, on east coast.

HI, I was told that 2 were made. I was never into the 71s, so I never researched it. I've made myself aware of the 70 Judge RAIV converts, as I have one.

When you mention that those #'s were in Thomas DeMauros book I was excited.Of couse I dont have the book as of yet I had to ask my buddys if one of them had the book.I got lucky and one of them had the book so I rush over to check it out.Thomas DeMauros book is one of the nicest books I've seen it has all the information you need about GTO's.Is your 70 vert red??I cant remember if I ask this or not but I'm going to ask anyways are all the 70 RAlV verts accounted for?
