Thanks Lyn, it's a nice car, not perfect, but I'm not asking top dollar for it either.

A very fair price for such a clean, dry M22 WW5 car, Chris. Even taking into consideration that the OEM block and trans are gone.
GLWS, my friend!

You state "325 WW5s", etc. I thought the WW5 production was 290, no?
Anyway, best to you on the sale and hope it finds a good home.

I believe it is 310 with a 4spd. 325 with an Auto and of the 635 built 290 of them were WW5 optioed cars. I own one of the 325 Auto's without the WW5 option.

'72 455HO A-body info . . .
As mentioned above, a total of 635 455HO optioned '72 GTOs were produced. 310 M22 cars and 325 M40 cars. As also mentioned above, a total of 290 WW5 optioned '72 GTOs were produced. No breakdown as to the transmissions on the WW5 cars, unfortunately. We DO know that a grand total of 10 WW5 optioned 2D27 GTO post coupes were produced - 7 M40 cars and 3 with M22s. In addition, a total of 112 non-GTO '72 A-body cars were 455HO equipped. I believe that I have the M22 / M40 breakdown on those, but not at hand. HTH!

Thanks guys - re-evaluating priorities here, buying two other cars, building a barn, want to get a year round house up next to our place on Cape Cod so my Dad can enjoy it, etc. etc..
I haven't put 100 miles on that car in the whole time I've owned it - just moved it from house to house. Lucy could go next.

Really? I did not realize any WW5 sedans were built. Now you say there were 10 of them? Could you have meant to say "10 455HO GTO sedans" perhaps?

Nope, I know thats not right! I know of one in Texas thats a automatic, with bench seat and A/C! Not a WW5.

Sorry guys - that's what I get for trusting my nearly non-existent memory . . .
Of the 290 total WW5 cars, 287 were "2D37X" hardtops, and 3 were "2D27X" post coupes. Also, of the 635 total 455HO powered 1972 GTOs, 628 were 2D37X hardtops, and 7 were 2D27X post coupes. Here's an HPP article on Terry Pope's original owner WW5 post coupe, with special order black paint to boot. It was shipped from the factory with a white endura! http://www.highperformancepontiac.co...2_pontiac_gto/

I'd like to hear more about this new barn when you get a chance - maybe start a separate thread highlighting it's progress? K

Thumbnail sketch is two bays - one will be 20x60 for storage, will hold 12 cars if I get stacker lifts16x10 door. Other bay will be the work bay, 16x46 which should give me room for an asymmetrical lift at the far end and still room for my Ford between that and the 12x10 door. Site maps are done, prints were done Sunday & I went through the town departments yesterday for signoffs. It's in the building department now for review. I should have the lumber going up by this time next week.

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.
