Re: 69 TransAm A/MP
I'm just curious but are you asking where this car is today or is this a for sale ad or just a heads up on this old '69 Firebird Trans Am race car.

Re: 69 TransAm A/MP
Just found the old pictures just sharing. Many people have never seen this combo. I have a lot of friends out there who have never seen this car as it was obsolete before it was ever campaigned.

Re: 69 TransAm A/MP
Since the photos posted are old ones, do you know where the car ended up or if it was sold less motor...could it possibly be this car today?

Re: 69 TransAm A/MP
Hemi Moose... it is not the car you posted. That car was built in Winnipeg by Chris Derksen. He sold it a year or two back but it still runs at Gimli Dragways in Manitoba. I think the new owner is from Northern MB.
