Last '92 Firebird...
Since today is the annivsary of the closing of Van Nuys I find it fitting to post the last Firebird built. After weeks of searching I have found the last '92 Firebird I'm listing the car by RPO codes.
1G2FS23T3NL227568 build date Aug 27, 1992.

Is not the definition of Carfax Fraud...
I bought unlimited, and it was only good for a month.
Then they would not let me re-subscribe.

Its unfortunate that this car will probably pass under the radar, since its a V6 car..

Hmmmmm..... Camaro went out with a fully opted Z28 and power everything with leather interior and one of the most popular colors of paint....besides teal. The Firebird goes out with a V6, the FE1 soft ride suspension, map pockets, drum rear brakes, and 15in wheels.....
At least it was black.....

I'm more interested in how/where you found the RPO codes for the last Firebird to roll off the Van Nuy's line.

If gets in a state like georgia which does no inspection it will only show up of carfax if the car is probably sold, wrecked, totaled, or scraped. This could explain the gaps.

You can contact the police with the case number. Police reports are public access. But... a 7 year old car with a front impact with a non breackaway sign, I'm sure it was totaled. The only thing is, did the guy who owned the car realize what he had.

Basically, he hit a metal pole head on and the pole didn't move. Which means parts of the car did move. I would guess if you did call the guy he would be thrilled and fill you in on all the info. Proably even provide you with pics. People like to talk about there cars. Think about if someone called about a car you owned, just to find out the background.

Not sure exactly how it works, but it may depend on your insurance company or it could depend on the state you live in, BUT if you total a car you have the decision to do 3 things:
1) Total the car send it to the scap heep - Get the payout
2) Total the car - get the Insurance payout and buy the car back.
3) Pay for the repairs yourself and not involve the insurance company, thus keeping a clean/clear title.
#2 sometimes you can't do as the insurance company will not sell it back to you for some reason...

Forget what was said..but I think it was something like...
"They gave us the first two Trans Ams that came off the assembly line"
Sadly, I'm sure they were destroyed by 1983......
