Lets be honest Frank, because there is no documentation it's really hard to
tell when the 1501 were finished being produced. And even if you want to
call the ones produced prior to the end of March the true "Donohue" Javelins
isn't it true that they also are just Javelins with the spoiler option? A
Javelin SST in restored condition is going to bring the same money wether
it's a Donohue or not. The only true "collector" Javelins are the Trans Am
because there is a way to verify it "if" the door hasn't been changed. I
don't believe there are any numbers in the VIN to verify it. Or the Alabama
State patrol car Javs, any that have a lineage that can be traced. So, to
those looking for something different, get the Javelin and enjoy it.
Let the tirades begin, I'm ready.

people consider them "Donohues" because they CAN provide prrof that they
came that way form the factory. One such car has a 304 and column shift
auto trans, and isn't an SST. The valuable Donohue model is one of the
1501 built specifically to homologate the spoiler for use in T/A racing.
All others are Donohue optioned Javelins.
