Here is the background (below) explaining the registry by John Schuh ramair@comcast.net . I encourage you to also send a hardcopy to John. Email him for his address. Geoff Martin is helping John by adding an online data entry form to this site. This is a large task for John and Geoff. I encourage you to enter your name on the prior thread(entitled Registry) on this forum in the event that you can help them with registry tasks.
If you have any trouble with the form you can email Geoff. It doesn't matter if you still own the car or whether it is numbers matching or not. All you need to get started is the cowl tag and VIN. PHS documentation (billing history)is also a good source. ................................ email from John Schuh circa 1999......
Does a registry exist for first generation firebirds?
Quote"
...Yes. "GENERATION-1" ...The First Generation Firebird Registry
A Nonprofit Organization established in 1991 for the Firebird Enthusiast ('67-'69). We have been collecting information on the 67-69 Firebird in order to decipher Factory/Dealer Documentation (Broadcast Sheets, Billing History Sheets, Trim Tags) in addition to maintaining a Database of all 'surviving' Firebird's in order to learn more about these cars. There is no charge to join the Registry nor is there any for asking questions. We do not believe in selling information that belongs to the Pontiac Enthusiast Community; by joining the Registry you are helping to build an Organization that is built by the owners and for the owners of the First Generation of the Firebird !
What we need: * VIN (personal info is not published; used only for Research) * Firewall Trim Tag Data * List of Original Equip/Options on car * Codes from any Factory/Dealer Documents... (Broadcast Sheet, Billing History, Window Sticker, Warranty Plate,etc)
What we provide: * FREE decoding of factory/dealer documentation * On-Line Registry/Web Site of Technical Data * Periodic Updates from the Registry * Restoration advice, tips, recommendations
Some of the research we're involved with: * '67-'69 Ram Air cars * Dealer/Zone Code research * '69 Trans Am * '67-'69 Body & Chassis Broadcast Sheet Codes * Production Variations/Part Variations * Part Number Data Base * Production Totals * Trim Tag Decoding
We look forward to adding your Firebird to our Registry !! " Unquote -i.e. end of email from John.
