Big surprise, they made 6 promo models of the Tire Bird, and one has been found that survived.. the other 5? No one knows


Since I just did the story on the Tire Bird last January,  I updated that article with all the info...
but put this note here so you can learn about it if you'd like.

The car had been mistreated by some BDG meathead, who drove it without oil, and it was up for grabs. Using his connections with GM, he got an LS6 454 and dropped it in. The next owner put on a 2 barrel, and changed the trans to an auto, and let his daughter use it in high school. Yeah, ain't that nuts!
