Default 65 GTO 'One of None'

Regretfully the time has come for me to part with my 65 GTO. PHS documented Tri Power with Automatic on the column (upgraded to TH 350). Original YR 389 Engine w/ 77 heads. 3.55 Safety Trac, Rally Gauges, Wood Wheel. NO PS or PB. Sold new by Trotter Pontiac in Chattanooga, TN. Frame off restored about 10 years ago that has been freshened twice since. The build was documented on two threads here:

And:

The car now is running the dual carb setup with a 'one of one' ram air pan to duplicate the setup that was described in the article in Paul Zazzarine's book. It's built to be as you 'could' have ordered a car if Pontiac had went through with their original intended dual quad ram air option for 65.

I can hardly get in and our of the car now due to my health problems with my legs and feet. It has scored Silver Certificates in Concours judging twice at the GTOAA Nats and was chosen the 'Favorite 65 GTO' at the 2015 GTOAA Nats. I have no desire to continue to haul it around and show it as I have to have help to do that.

Pricing: I don't know of any comparable cars that have sold, BUT the asking prices for comparable cars start in the 50's and go up; sometimes way up. The cars that I see priced less always have problems; usually they don't have the original engine. This one does. Some have questionable restorations and other problems. I'm asking $45,000 and that includes the correct 65 tri power set up, plus all the 'day two' accessories from the first build. (cheater slicks and steelies, Radirs and M/T front tires, M/T valve covers, front drag shocks, and other bits and accessories).

If you have any interest, shoot me a pm and let's talk!
