Was wondering if anyone out there has more info on this protoype car: http://musclecarfilms.com/1969_Firebird_Engineering_Cars_4_A.htmlJust looks like an interesting idea and I love the options and the "branched out" Ferrari steering wheel, exhaust and high back seats. Some clown was trying to sell one for $200k on ebay couple of months ago, but I believe he was a scammer, car was a basket case, no clear pictures, etc.

Isn't that the definition of insanity?
Doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results?

There is no mystery any longer. If you follow the latest post at PY you will see that the VIN has been run through PHS. That car indeed left the factory as a plain Espresso Brown 350 2-Bbl.

Not yet. I am next in the queue after a '70 Camaro that is being wet sanded. What I am afraid of is the weather going bad and preventing me from driving the car the 30 miles south to the shop.

So far this fall has been unusually warm. But I figure "we are going to get it" sooner or later and my side glass is out.

He keeps saying that his car is exactly what he says it is and now is saying that the "8th T/A convertible" is a fake that has been "re-vined".
I'm sure that if the car was the real thing someone would have snapped it up by now.

There's something seriously wrong with this guy. He's had it on E-Bay 12 times over the past 4 years and 14 times on Craiglist, and each time he gets deeper and deeper in his lies and keeps changing his story. There's nothing prototype or test anything on the car.
I found out his name is Jeremy Wil and he lives in Manteca California. His car is a brown 1969 Firebird 350 2bbl. There's nothing unique about it. Lots of info on the PY site, as well as Camaros.net, this forum. it's all over. Found these pics in an old PY thread. Shows his invoice, what his car looked like when he bought it, and what he looks like with his drug money. I guess he painted the car with a house roller when he found out it was a 350 2bbl and nothing special, so he concocted this wild story that it's a prototype, test car, mule car, UFO, whatever.
