Default 72 455 HO GTO on Craigslist in Northern Virginia
Not sure if anyone saw it or not but there was a 72 455 HO GTO on the DC/No. Va. Craigslist 2 days ago. The car looked a little rough in the pics and from the owner's description it was a total resto. There were taking offers through Wednesday but I guess the changed their mind. It it had some good options including power windows and door locks. It looked to be originally silver with a white whale stripe and black interior which was a pretty interesting combo.

Did anyone here pick it up?

The listing was pulled when I went back to look at it. They told me the high offer so far was $9K but they were taking offers through Wednesday. Supposedly numbers matching auto without the original intake, and a one owner car before they purchased it. It looked like original paint with a considerable amount of rust and included replacement floor pans. Assume it had a vinyl top that was pulled off based on the surface rust on the roof but they didn't seem to think it ever had one.

Alright, time for the details! I assume it was a WW5 car mainly because of the Buick 3 spoke steering wheel. I'm guessing that one replaced a worn out formula wheel at some point. Am I right?
