I know you said you had the first RAII Firebird, like the white one at Mecum.
Pontiacs galore

A low 1971 455 Ho ta would be 228871N100___
Our 68 RAII FB is a lower vin than the white fb.

So it just so happens that it’s number 1001 or whatever Firebird made that year? That’s still actually really fascinating.
Your FB is a lower vin? Wouldn’t be the first time a auction house lied but that’s really interesting, theirs was 163680
So was your 68 also built on the first day? Neat to know such a historically Important GM car is so close to home!
