Bump in the WW5 Department
The Black / Saddle 4speed WW5 is For Sale
Frame Off Restored
located in Utah
It is the only Black , and the only Special Order Paint WW5 known.
Black was not a standard color for 72 GTO
455-HO with RamAir / M22 / 12 Bolt Posi / 15" Rally 2
WW5 Full Performance Option Package
I don't remember if WW5 production (290) is broken down into 4spd and Auto.
On our running list of known cars - its close to half and half - iirc
Quote:
Was asking $54,900, but would take $50,000 as the car rarely get's out of storage now. Nearly $100K in the restoration and the car looks and drives fantastic. Please call with any questions or for details. (801) 699-6880.
Thanks,
Tim

BLACK with Saddle Interior - 4 Speed
i think the value/interest of the car is downplayed a LOT by the Yellow paint.
Very Very Few special order Black Cars in 1972, at all.
Its practically the cream of the WW5 crop , fellows.
Over 90k in the car with a full frame-off resto
All matching # drivetrain as well.

When my step father purchased the car in 1974 it had been painted yellow. I tracked the car down through several owners and bought it back, had it beautifully restored to stock condition and decided to go with the yellow he had known (monarch yellow). I struggled with the decision to not go with the ordered, black color, but the restoration was with him in mind.
