Default 71 GP Questions.

I just bought a 71 GP parts car. I'm not that familiar with GP's. I have a couple questions? The PO claims the car was originally a 455 car. There is no engine or trans with the car.

Did the 455 cars come with a 12 bolt rear end? What ratio?

Is the steering gear different between a GP and GTO? The dealer brochure lists the GP as 2.9 turns lock to lock, while the GTO is 3.5 turns. Or is the steering geometry different?

The front seats in the car look more like a Firebird seat than a GP seat, But the seat material matches the rear seat. I thought the seats were more like the GTO seats with a headrest.

Thanks for you input.
