I'd say smoking deal if half is there. An endura front is 3k plus a 242 car plus a matching 455 HO and M-22....

PHS and engine pix might help than new rocker arms claim?

A matching number HO car with bodywork done and matching drivetrain (except tranny) for 5k$? If its real, seller is giving it away. Nothing about the interior though.

Endura front end + complete HO motor alone is worth double, maybe triple that.

Default No worth lookin at

Went and looked at it On Sunday.
Don't waste your time. Non matching anything.
Car was wrecked into a tree. Endura bumper not there. Dash is all twisted up and has a fiberglass aftermarket repo hood.
It is stuck in a southside Hispanic body shop that the father still owes money for work. Convoluted deal. No way on that one. Kid does not know what he has.

Car is all disassembled and missing a bunch of parts.
Tranny is a 67 Muncie with scatter shield bell.
400 car 4 speed GTO.

I think the only 71 GTO with a reg D port 455 option was an Auto car. Stick car was 455 HO or 400 only.
