How much is this GTO worth?
I have a rare 1972 455HO GTO that I am thinking of selling. The exterior color is Sundance Orange with black interior. I purchased it from the original owner in 1984 and it has been stored every winter since. It is 1 of 325 produced with the automatic transmission 455HO set up.
Body: front end off restoration about 13 years ago. No rust on the car. Very clean driver with few scratches and stone chips on the bumper. Engine: Numbers matching engine, transmission with a 12 bolt rear end. All original except for the carb (71 455HO carb). Motor pulled and rebuilt 3 years ago. The car came with air conditioning but it is not on the car. It will need condenser, compressor and hoses. Desert cooler radiator purchased last year. Your opinions are greatly appreciated Proud Owner of a 455HO! |

Car should bring in the 35,000 dollar range. More if the air was working for sure.

Hate to disagree with you Don but I would say closer to 50k - if it was a stick it would be more.
I don't think your & my sales from several years ago are the benchmarks on these any more.

Lloyds old sundance HO, 4 speed sold at Mecum last December for $57K. The HO's are starting to come into their own.
AC stuff not too hard to come by, as I see it has the original HO intake bracket, the hardest thing to come by in original parts on that system. Great car!

Here's a 71 version that bid up to $65K at Mecum in 2012 --> https://www.mecum.com/lot-detail/KC1...1-Pontiac-GTO/
Prices are all over place but in all honesty I think the color of this one might effect the price somewhat, albeit an HO car.

It's all good to disagree Chris but I'll stand by my gut. And there's a 10grand swing from auto to a M22 car. Lloyds was a WW5 car too. And auctions are bringing more but after you pay the juice your back closer to reality. And back to my number which I say is 35-40.

Are the trans line coolers routed differently on a 455HO car? One of yours looks like it runs under the frame? Beautiful car..

Is the car a WW5? From what I can see it has most/all of the options.

Ditto...
FYI...same paint code as Carousel Red, I believe! Not same color...just same code#...like a replacement color I guess.

That's interesting Ron. In 69 CR was code 77 and used on GTO and FB. In 70 CR was code 65 used on FB. Code 65 not used until 72 was SO.

I took pictures of the sticker showing the WW5 option package and also the protect-o-plate.
To get the air conditioning working it would cost about $1500-2000. Do you think it would be a good idea to do this? Would it make a difference in the selling price? |
