Default Re: How to ID a true 1969 T/A

Great advice from those that have answered. PHS is the only sure way to tell, and the next step is to do what Tom stated, have the heater box pulled to check the VIN.

Just a couple notes:

1) Not all 1969 Trans Am's were code 50-50. They did make a few with vinyl tops.

2) Code 50-50 is Cameo White, which was also available on regular Firebirds. It's a good clue to determining if it's real, but not a lock that it's definitely a Trans Am.

3) The Pontiac hood tach was not available on the 1969 Trans Am, so someone installed a hood tach after the car was built.

Good luck! It sounds like you may have a real Trans Am, and that's a rare Bird to say the least. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
