Hardly, most us us are MORE inclined to be aware of the premiums GTO/Bird, of Pontiac line and the reality of other models.
Why we CHOSE them!

79 T/A in Wyoming at NR $5100 or BIN at $19K. Only one pic of the car and the rest pics of the receipts of a ton of new parts. If this goes cheap it could be a steal for someone.

I remember your gold 79. It was a nice car. Agree with you and it probably has no rust.

I agree and think it's worth at least $8K if it's as it appears...I look at these things from the view that 'if it were mine, what would I take?'.
With that in mind... I can say this much- I wish it belonged to 1969400HO and he lived near me...that is, if I'm correct in my understanding of what he's saying about the value.

Looks like the 64 Catalina/Ventura possibly sold for $7100.
Its really hard to say anymore about eBay auctions.
The top bidders activity in the bidding history looks a little iffy.

Not sure what you mean? The buyer has great feedback. If a scammer is going to sell a car and it sells, they have to pay eBay the commissions. A scammer would prolly stop the auction and claim the vehicle is no longer for sale, but this one sold. I think someone got a great deal.

I think I see what he means. Nothing glaring but they've only bid on two items in their entire history and both were towards items from the same seller. Makes it look as though someone...a friend?....may have bid it up but no one took the bait. If so, it may show up again.
$7100 is a real fair price for that car in my opinion though. Not a giveaway but really fair.

Actually, once you become a 'volume' vehicle seller, eBay only charges a $50 flat fee for each listing, whether it sells or not. No commission other than that.

72 455HO T/A in Washington with a NOM and buckets of rust for $5200 with a reserve. I wouldn't touch this car with a 10 foot pole. By the time you did all the work and found an original 455HO and had it rebuilt, it will still never be "numbers matching" or be anywhere near what you had into it. Numbers matching means far less to me than it does some people, but this car is a money pit from the word go IMO. If'n I really wanted a car like this, to start with an un-rusted 70-73 and make it look like this would be far cheaper. Let's face it... dinosaurs like me are dying off and these cars just aren't worth what they were 10 years ago.

I'd hate to see the bottom of that T/A.

Looks worth saving. Not a bad deal considering the included donor car.

Yes, green and teal were special order, but you could get them. SMS fabrics have the correct colors and texture. They were top colors 3 and 4, but I don't remember which was which any more.

That OEM single exhaust is so “patina”.
Outside that, overall is a neat little car.
