Just how rare is it?
question for you 73 A body historians...
 Buddy and I were talking about the rarity of the 73 GTO, which got me thinking a little more about mine... While all 73 GTO's are rare, mine was actually ordered with virtually zero options, and a 3spd Muncie. According to the PHS... --GTO and Sport Windows --Manual Disk Brakes --Manual Steering --Bumper strips --AM Radio --Rally II Wheels and upgraded tire. That is it! No AC, no center console. I mean, who orders a GTO option and stays with a 3spd instead of the 4 spd? Strange. Curious, has anyone ever seen a real 73 GTO with a 3spd manual?? Mine will actually be up for sale. I am moving the big powerplant over to a 1st Gen Firebird, and putting the 73 all back to stock. Figured it will actually be worth more in stock form. Before it is sold, I am looking forward to cruising around a little with the 3 spd Thank you in advance for any thoughts!
