--Before we get any further let me tell you about the ( B/W ) factory picture of my Design Car.--
--So we can be clear about the fact & faction that has been put out by a small group that originally tried to scam me out of this car.
-- These clowns who publish there blasphemy on the web based strictly on there own opinions and for self gain, nbsp; have had to move there Web Domain because a legitimate Company did not want there presence associated with them in any way shape or form !
-- This small group has had to move there forum now to some off the wall Web Domain due to the possibilty of litigation which the legitimate company wanted no part of!
-- All the GM part #s on this 1969 Design Car can be researched if use search them on GOOGLE--
-- GM PARTS WIKI is also another great choice it will use the actual General Motors Parts Catalog from 1969 year to present, You will be able to view the actual printed material GM published that month and year.
-- Google search the term 1969 Test Car 9723 or any of the GM part #s my car was born with and you can see the factual data published by General Motors in 1969 -1970.

Now back to the B/W photo . I stumbled upon the photo 6 years ago while researching the engine code, ront sway ba, owl ta, etc .
Below the photo it read " Whereabouts of this car are unknown"
The picture appears to be similar in body style to all 1969 Pontiac Firebirds to most peopl, xcept on my car I had noticed that the rear quarter on Passenger Side was slightly different except that it matched the B/W photo passenger side EXACTLY with out a doubt .
So I contact this clown he tells me to send photo,
I do after exchanging emails and part data about the car he then tells me it is not the car, ut since Im looking to sell it he would be willing to buy it!
--Immediately I become suspicious after a few days of asking him are sure its not the car will you give me the VIN of the car in the B/W photo. He again insists it is not the car but fails to give me the VIN.
A few days passed and I decide let me research some more so I go back to original article-- ( Gone he has removed picture of the car completely from sit, his is strange i contact him again he still insists on trying to scam me, he gives no factual numeric data---
I tell him why would one rear quarter be changed on my car and it happens to match the B/W photo exact.. ride heigh, ,contou, ,Cibie Highbeams .. and this is the best part I did not realize till the last day we spoke on the phone.. he says " The seats match but thats about it"
"the seats what " Thats when I realized thanks to this guy with out a doubt the cars "whereabouts are known".
I just have happened to found it!
*So feel free to research any part # yourself I encourage it, ou will find many threads discussing these part # you will see the photos and catalogs I have found as well as photos and overlays of my car .
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Please GOOGLE all the info and read all the threads and you decide if its the car - if you still are in doubt come view the the car with your own eye, ook over inside out.
Not only will it be easy to see the validity of the factory options it will also be easy to see that it is with out a doubt in the world the car I know it i, and you will know it is as well. I have nothing to hide or fake you can touc, test, o what ever it is you like to disprove the facts because as everyone is aware of its impossible to disprove the truth and fake the facts!!
Below is a quick summary of what i have found and the part # cast into various components of the car.
--If you have questions or want to loo, se, nspect the car please feel free to contact me---
-Designed Mid year by GM in Fremont Ca. after being shipped from Norwoo, Ohio . Car arrived at General Motors in Fremont,Ca. by rail car 2nd week of July 1969.-
General Motors was facing the possibility that their new body design for all F-Body (Camaro,Firebird) automobiles might not be able to release until 1971.
They pulled the car your bidding on due to it being highly optione, and the fact it incorporated the Trans Am Running Gears
General Motors was looking at trying to give the car a subtle change that they could pass to the public as new body since the public was expecting one for 1970
-MFG plate- Found in the trunk wheel well-- Buyer and I can visit the DMV office here and they will verify that the tags issued to the plate were legitimately issued by California DMV to General Motors- this will validate any questions the buyer might have as to the silly fact that it somehow might be a novelty plate!
* 1 of 1 Leather Interior and Buckets Seats that were produced with High Resiliency Foam that have GM #8738440 cast into the foam & Wings Down Firebird w/ 231PMD9 stamped onto the foam underneath the leather seat cover.
- These seats with GM# 8738440 appear in a GM Catalog dated July 1969, ith a denotation *( New Part Initial Catalog) ,
- This interior and seats are the only known type in existence even though the GM Catalog shows them as a new part they were never put into production until 1973.
-You can research this data if you query "Automotive Cushioning through the Ages" page 30 of that article written by experts in automotive interior design you will find the fact that in Sept 1969 the High Resiliency Foam was introduced in a few Pontiac Firebirds /Camaros Bucket Seating.
It was not until 1973 that GM switched to this material in every car they made and continues to be the leading standard in automotive seating material!
-If you like to query the 1of 1 interior just google any of the items i have highlighted in Red .

dual snorkel air-cleaner yet to date that is identical or that shares the same GM part #.
