Default 1971 GTO 455HOs out there

There has been much discussion on '72 455HO GTOs but, I haven't seen much on '71s. I am fortunate to have one of each but, I don't see much talk about them. Is there no interest or are there just fewer people out there who own them?
My '71 455 HO is very loaded and was delivered to the GM proving grounds in Arizona. I imagine is was used for executives (?). It was later sold to or traded to Sun Pontiac in Mesa and sold as a used car. I found it in 1977. I couldn't afford to buy it so I had a friend buy it and I bought it from him in 1981. I still remember the Pontiac proving grounds sticker in the top center of the windshield. The build sheet verifies this.
Any one else out there with an interesting '71 455HO GTO?
I think they made 888 of them going by memory.
