'69 brought more changes.

(1) Ram Air IV engine. Round port heads, the 041 cam, 1.65 rockers, alum intake, forged pistons. But had cast rods.

(2) 1st year of the "The Judge".

(3) 1st year of the Trans Am.

It would also be the last year of the 428 & the last year of the 1st gen Birds.

Here are 9 '69 Bird pics, some from long ago, some more recent, the last one from the last few weeks.

Pic #4 is Phil Monteith's RAIV car, which he bought new. At least that's what I've read.
