So new, it’s got its own 118" wheelbase. So new, it’s got its own aircraft-type interior. A new steering wheel with a “soft” material rim. With a Wide-Track on big tires. With a new hidden radio antenna we’re daring everybody to find. Or mayb| Firebird, available the fabuk Lean, del new anti-l THE NEW 1969 GRAND PRIXS, BONNEVILLES, BROUG1
