1969 Comanche Package

Short answer: The Comanche appears to have been a central-Canada district/dealer sales package for 1969 Firebirds — cars modified/prepped in Canada before reaching the dealer — inspired by the era’s regional appearance packages (The Judge, The Jury, Royal Bobcat, Mustang “California Special,” etc.). Hard documentation is scarce.

One described car was green (possibly Verdoro) with the code 293 Gold Leather interior and possibly a 350 H.O. Whether the options were a defined package or just heavily optioned is unclear. These would be very rare — reportedly with Canadian papers to authenticate them — though rarer still would be a “Grand Marque” Firebird (fewer than three made for the PMD auto-show circuit). The photos below are of the Sprint “Fitchbird,” a separate rarity mentioned in the discussion.
