Remarkable considering the wrong year mirrors were installed...and in the wrong place.

Does 1000% restored mean that it was 100% restored 10 times?! Or maybe 50% restored 20 times?

Okay, someone help me out here- what am I missing on this story?
"This GTO was previously a campaign car for Pontiac, also known as a "CO-PO", touring dealerships in order to promote Pontiac's GTO which makes this car such a collectible.... I also have the documents providing the vehicle's remarkable history including a list of dealerships in which the car was showed at." Why would Pontiac ship a production GTO around to various Pontiac dealers to "promote" the GTO, when those dealerships would already have GTOs sitting on their lots for sale? And I won't even touch the COPO thing.

I'm just trying to figure out who won't suck it up on the last $300 at this point. Almost looks like there is a ghost bidder that knows the person with the car that is driving the price up to the point of sale. Looks fishy

Listing smells, but they usually they go for the deposit, or a buy it now deal.
Kind of pricey with little info....whats the angle? |

Somebody should have checked box 601 on the order sheet, oh & 422.
I like the car, great colors, the 455HO, A/C & drop top don't hurt either!

He also states that it's a big block car from the factory... but Pontiac only had one block back in those days from 326 up to 455, so technically there is no big/small block from Pontiac. That was all Ford/Chevy. Also why does it have 69-style Judge-like stripes?

Yes, the big block thing is an easy tip off that the seller is not a Pontiac guy.
The '69 style stripes were optional on the 70 GTO and came standard on the '70 GT-37.

You could get those stripes on a 70 GTO as an option (D98).
They weren't ordered on this one - but they go nice with its color combo. Maybe the co dealer or the po dealer put them on it during that campaign |

a good possibility there Hobi
But wonder if he really meant it was a MO-FO campaign car Ever since that beat up looking 63 Tempest sold on eBay .... seems like more and more folks want their car to have a special story too . And a special price... just in case. |
