Even twenty years ago, it was (as I understood it) to replace a nice looking later dash insert - with it's shiny machined finish, for one which was dull and often worn to the point that the machine finish was gone, and left in it's place was a dull grey/flat aluminum.

When I last looked at this listing (thank you email alerts!) it was at (or somewhere close to) $35k;
I am guessing that a numbers matching 1970 Trans Am - with a 'WS' engine is what the current bidding (at $71k) is ALL about.

EDIT:

Wow!
They did a good job hiding the fact that this IS an RTS dash insert!!
