Wow...and it's in New Jersey, too.
The PHS says "Air Cleaner HD". Is that different than the ram air package? |

big option lists seem to be the normal for F455 Cars. Most I have seen carry
20 or More Options, and these vary greatly. The Y99 suspension seems to be a hit or miss type of option. I have seen really nice HO Cars that did not have this option, and likely many folks didn't know what is was (including some dealers) My Car has Y99 L75 and M21 Muncie, but no Ram Air, no AC and no power Windows or doors. So there does not seem to be a pattern, Lots of options and crazy combos. Mine actually had a Block Heater, so go figure I guess. This is a nice Car, and has a great color combo. Still More work than you might think, but who knows if it's worth the current bidding, because there are so few sales histories to use as a guide. 2 years ago and Black Car without original colors or engine sold at auction, and it was still chasing 50K. Very nice Car mind you, but little help in determining what it could be worth. I do think the rarity of F455 Cars helps their value. Only somewhere around 1500 F455's were ever produced, and with the Y99 Option, They are Trans-Am running gear. |

Since the car was sold new in Kansas and not NJ.. It was probably saved from having numerous salt baths when new and is probably pretty solid. I like the color combo.
My '74 Formula 455 was loaded up with pretty much all the options.... but didn't have posi. My '73 SD is kinda basic... but has all the performance options and A/C.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
