How many Trans Am's were made in 70-73? And how much money would I expect to pay for one that is in 3-4 condition?

Last December, a blue on blue, ram air III, 4 speed a/c car from Florida sold on ebay for $14,600. I believe it had the wrong engine, wrong carb, wrong shaker, and wrong rims and it needed a complete restoration. I agree with TA doctor, one day only the rich...

The prices are really going up. If you want a decent driver without numbers matching I would budget around $15,000 or so. You might be able to find a '73 D-port T/A w/ numbers matching for around that as they seem to be a little cheaper still.

I was offered $29,000-$30,000 for my 70 T/A after I decided to keep my Bird.Now I will most likely be buried with her.

Numbers-matching or not, expect to pay a premium...the sky's the limit. Not many were made, most of them are long gone and prices have continued to climb since the demise of the F-body.

I think you can get a 70 auto numbers matching driver car for under 20k. I think you will pay the same amount for a non matching 4 speed car. I think the four speed car bring a extra 20% and then if you have blue 4 speed add another 20%. If you are looking to buy ask the t/a dr. He has the market cornered on 70 t/a's

Thanks for the advice, maybe a trans am would be kinda high in price for a first car...

I was trying to sell my 1970 last summer to finance the purchase of my Judge. Highest offer I got was $22000. Car is an older restoration (2-3), with a 4-spd., but does not have original RA III engine. Fortunately, I was able to find the financing for my Judge elsewhere.
What TA Doctor mentioned about a III car selling for $100K b/c it had a IV in it is interesting. I have an almost complete SR RA IV that I am going to put in my TA, but if I was in the market, I wouldn’t pay the “RA IV premium” unless the car rolled out of the factory with it. There is a discussion over on the ’69 GTO boards about a ’69 GTO on eBay that was an original RA III car, but now has a RA V (yes, V as in five) and it is said the owner is expecting $100K plus for the car.

Anybody seen any 72 455HO TH400 T/A's sold lately? I may may be ready to sell in the near future.

You won't have any trouble selling it. Like previous posts, I'll probably be buried in my '71 4-speed (nearing completion of a rebuild/restoration from class 6 parts car to class 2/3; mostly original, Lucerne Blue / Medium Blue).

I think the Hemmings ad was a ploy to inflate the perceived value. There were many questionable elements about that car as well -- sold for much more than I would have expected.

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.
