SUMMARY

Born w/ 370++ Horsepower, a 4 Speed & Manual Steering & Brakes, you better believe it was a “MUSCLE CAR”! The combination of a documented true RAM AIR IV, 4 spd. in #1 condition make this a very unique collectible. Although not having its original block, having a correct SR block, orig. trans & rear w/ correct date coded carburetor & ancillary components makes it as desirable considering how few were produced & the limited number of survivors, particularly in this original condition. The grossly underrated RAM AIR IV is the most desirable GTO & at the top of any serious collector’s wish list.
