Johnta1 checked through his files and found another WW5 car we don't have on the list yet. So if anyone might know anything about the car - speak right up !

Automatic
Wilderness Green / Saddle Buckets / Beige Vinyl Top
Pretty good amount of options including AC , Cruise Control, H.Combs

Appears to have been ordered by a US Military personnel.
DEEP discounts below dealer net, and only $1 Export Prep Fee.
99% of time the $1 Export Prep means it was US Military Service man/woman ordered car through the PMD/GM Military Incentive of the day and time.
And car did not leave USA.
They could take delivery at any dealer of their choice.

As an example -
this one would have fallen under the $987 Auto WW5 option price time frame.
Dealer Net would have been $769.86
It is listed for $682.61

I still have the car. A guy from south Carolina who called me everyday about the car ended up winning the auction. Suposedly the guy had a tornado touch down on his property and said he wouldn't be able to make the trip or get the car. Whatever , I relisted on ebay and it sells Friday morning. The pics I posted hi light the problem areas (don't want any surprises for the buyer)
The door jambs are great , bottom of the door seams are perfect. Ya it Definetly needs a restoration but go find another round port gto project this cheap. I could part it out for more but would love to see this car saved. I originally thought it would sell for around 5k ish. Thanks again for all the info on these rare WW5 cars.

Z104, the double charge 455 HO car, is for sale. Nice, solid looking car with older restoration. $46K ask. Missing AC and unitized, with incorrect carb.

This one...

http://forums.maxperformanceinc.com/...d.php?t=776043

The carb on it could be worth more?

Interesting...coincidently viewed Hemmings Parts FS section last night and noted this (below) Quadrajet listed, & although for a stick car, close enough?

[Judge273]

This carb is from a PYer and a 2273 is going to be mo money then a 2270.

Might be easier to find as well? So, 71 HO carb. In place is good trade bait.

[The Boss]

I have an extra 2273 I would trade in an instant for a 1273!

[johnta1]

Is this one on the list?

WW5 at Kissimmee Auction

[Diego]

Shouldn't WW5 cars have some kind of mag wheels?

[johnta1]

I think the blurb for the WW5 on window sticker or the like, don't mention wheels, does say 'Handling PKG'

So, possibly could come with those wheels?

[The Boss]

No wheels.

[Judge273]

White letter tires an option separate too..

[Held for Ransom]

UPC Y99...

[Judge273]

My attempt at sarcasm....

[Diego]

So they had 15" wheels with hubcaps or wheelcovers?

For the new folks, here is a list of what the WW5 option included -
in addition to this list, 15" Raised White Letter Tires were included.
I think they were part of the 724/Y99 Handling package.
Y99 was a pretty stout option on its own.



These WW5 cars came standard with 15" steel wheels and poverty caps unless Rally2 or HCombs were ordered. Most of these did get optional wheels.

The WW5 option price indicates whether the car was 4 speed or Automatic.
The option price, along with all other option prices and base price, were reduced after 12/11/71 .

Feel free to share your contributions and experience.
All factoids welcome.

Here is the first post again, and states wheel options based on handling package standard as the white letter tires....
