Re: GM Heritage Collection
Going from Memmory I can't remember, But I do know the same car in a Convertible is even rarer. I'm sure I could cheat & look it up somewhere. At one time I knew. Maybe Pontiac Kurt can chime in? maybe he'll know with out looking it up? LEON.

Re: GM Heritage Collection
I thought there were 7 Trans Am convertibles In 1969 but ZipHippie says there are 8.
I do know that there were only 100 of the 689 hard tops with an automatic trans.

Re: GM Heritage Collection
Was fortunate to visit as a GM retiree back in 2014. The original cars are stunning. The prototypes are awesome and make you wonder "what if..."

It's not open to the public or even to the employees. However, the Heritage Center can be reserved for group tours, conferences, meetings and special events. The displays are rotated regularly. It'd be a heck of a place to have a job!
Had to go back and look at the pics I took back then.
