Hi all. Up for auction we have my very rare and very real 1970 455 HO Ram air GTO with it's original 455 4 bolt main engine,400 auto trans, and 12 bolt posi. Only 200 RAM AIR 455 HO cars were built in 1970. The car runs well and moves but needs brake work and some other items to be driven. It has a 350 engine in it now with the original trans and 12 bolt posi in it also. The original 455 is on a stand and ready for a rebuild... It goes into forward and reverse very smoothly with no clunks in the trans or rear end but I have not driven it over 5 mph so. I am sure it will need a flush and a modulator at least. The posi seems smooth...

THE ENGINE CODES are YC block code with the car vin # on the front bottom of the block. 9799140- rear engine part #, 9799068 intake, #64 heads, rare distributor # 1112012. It also comes with her original crank, pistons, rods, windage tray, oil pan, etc. I don't have the original carb or exhaust manifolds. The 1972 350 engine in the car has the correct long bolt 455 motor mounts and new 455 ho fuel pump.

THE TRANS CODE is 1970 PR and has the original bolts on the crossmember that look to have never been removed. The PR code is original to 1970 455 HO cars only.

THE REAR END code is XT which is 1970 12 bolt with 307 ratio and also 455 HO only. It is still bolted in with it's original  ride and handling package shocks which are bad, of course, but can be rebuilt to keep the #s correct. I removed one of the front shocks and found the late1969 production date on it, so it's included but not on the car now.

THE BODY.. First of all the frame is very solid with only surface rust and will need very little if any repair. The only weird thing on it is a tow hitch that was welded in the rear at both frame rails and bolted to the bumper. I unbolted the hitch and saved it but the frame bracket is still on the car. I removed part of the trunk floor, which is the rustiest spot on the car, and cleaned the spot on top of the frame rail to see the cars vin # which matches also.  . I have 2 valances in bad shape but a nice set of turn signals comes with. The nose is straight but has cracks and a few small chunks missing. The core support is bent a little so it would need work or to be replaced. The hood is an original ram air hood with the cut outs in the bracing for the ram air pan. It is in very good shape with no kinks on the edge and no rust holes but has a few dings. The only other ram air part with the car is the pull knob and bracket. The fenders are usable and fairly straight with solid mounting tabs but have the normal rust in the lower rear sections. The drivers door is nice and not very rusty. It will need very little body work. The passenger door will need a little more work. It's somewhat straight on the bottom but has some bubbling on the skin and a few dings and holes. On the drivers door jam you can see the original paint. On the passenger side jam it needs some rust repair. The top has a few spots that need work, it's a cordova top car so it has some pitting and a few small holes under the stainless around the windows. All the mounting tabs are still there but the stainless is just on the car loosely with a few clips. Most of the stainless is good but the chrome for the top is pitted. The drivers quarter is pretty straight and will just need a lower patch and a few dings fixed. The inner and outer are good with only minor rust holes. The passenger quarter as well as the rocker and outer well will need to be replaced. The trunk lid is off a LeMans and will need the holes for the emblem welded and maybe a patch on the lower outside edge where it's bubbling. The inner lip is ok. The floors are ok under the rear seat and up towards the trunk area but have the normal small holes under your feet. Again, not to bad but will need a few patch panels. The trunk is shot but will be fine with a full trunk pan kit and drop offs to the quarters.

INTERIOR... It's mostly complete and looks ok. The headliner is out but I have the rods and the welting trim for it. The seats work but need foam and covers. The frames are solid. The dash has a cover that actually looks good and almost original but the gauges will need to be replaced or rebuilt. The steering wheel and column look good.

ELECTRICAL...If I was restoring this car I would replace the engine and headlight harness. Both of them are off a 70 Lemans and have a few splices. I hooked up the grounds and one headlight so far and it works when you pull the switch out. The engine harness works but I think it needs a neutral safety switch. The car turns on and off with the key but I have a temporary switch under the dash for the starter now, wired with a fuse of course. Also the key has to be pushed in to turn. The key and lock are new but I think they were poor quality.

This car is a solid start for a restoration or with $500.00 or so could be a driver while you fix it up. Either way it's a very rare collector car with 21 options. I have sold a few cars on ebay and everyone was always happy so Please ask any questions that you have.

I WILL ONLY SELL THIS CAR TO SOMEONE IN THE U.S. IT'S A RARE PART OF OUR HISTORY AND NEEDS TO STAY HERE. SHIPPING IS UP TO THE BUYER BUT I WILL HELP ANY WAY I CAN.
