Something Ive always wondered about these cars .

 

Did they start off as a body in white? Or A running driving car ? Meaning  do they have a GM assigned vin

7N163378 is a partial VIN, so it appears that this one was an actual car at one time. Add 1243 to the beginning and you have the complete VIN.

I have heard that the first two 69 Trans Am Mustangs started life as 351-powered standard fastbacks, not Boss 302s.

Nope. A Norwood built V8 67 Camaro coupe is all the VIN would say. GM didn't include engine info in the VIN until 1972, other than 6 or V8 model.
