http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWA:IT&ih=012Last night,a maroon 70 GTO conv 455 car /auto #1 car didnt hit its reserve but was bid up to 140,100?????
I know the ramair opton is rare,but what make this particular car so desirable??I have a sierra yellow car documented sandlewood interior w/brown conv top w/auto w/o ACw/455HO.Mine is low option car.No PW,Pwr seat,Pwr locks.Does car color choice make that much difference in value even if not original ??I've got good reasoning to know as I am about to embark on a complete frame off restoration/ excursion,I also realize that for every person that rates their car a #1 only 1 in 20 is actually a #1 ![]() P.S. I also have a N.O.S.set of Judge in G.M. packaging eyebrows for both sides for yellow/green car.I believe these were available dealer installed as these have accessory part numbers on boxes packaged as one p.n. per side of car.

Shill bidding explains it. Never trust the bids on Ebay. $140k and it didn't meet reserve? That's ridiculous.

This car has been on and off ebay for months and at the Atlantic City auction with no sale. Looks like a near perfect restoration and a very rare car but it just doesn't seem to get the money the guy is asking.

My guestimation is that car would sell for 50-100 k in todays slower market
w/a non-original black or saddle or sandlewood interior w/color inter matching top. I understand a car can only be correct/matching invoice, but dont it seem that maroon ext/red int a wierd color match???

That car hit 137K at auction in Borgata ac, in a really bad market. It can be looked up.It was on ebay last dec twice, and then scammed 15 or 20 times after that for low buy it now.

I owned this car for a brief time before selling it to the current owner I can attest to it's originality, it is a super rare car indeed, no 455 matching number ram air conv's have changed hands publically in a long time , it is worth alot more than normal. The curent owner is a straight up guy I don't believe shill bidding is his style.
