Michael, that's definitely not your car.

In June 1972, Pontiac held its long-lead press preview where Herb Adams introduced the SD-455 to the media. There were several SD-455 powered cars available there that day including the white '73 Grand Am and the infamous GTO that cars awarded its Car Of The Year award to.

Among the Trans Ams on hand was a Buccaneer Red engineering mule with a near-production (at least to June 1972 spec) SD-455. It was that very car shown in the video, which undoubtedly was filmed around June 1972. I'm sure this car, like many other cool engineering mules was scrapped.

You car wasn't produced until mid-Dec 1972 so the timeframe just doesn't work out.
