1972 GTO LS5/M22 Lucerne Blue 1 0f 310
I am the 3rd owner of this rare goat that was driven only 70,000 miles from 1972 to 1983 when it was placed in a garage not to emerge until 2011. During the course of the next 4 years, every mechanical component has been correctly restored, updated, replaced or rebuilt, adhering to all original specs and components, including a complete engine build by a reputable and exclusively Pontiac HO engine builder in Texas using all numbers matching carb/intake/heads/block/exhaust. 420hp/490ftlbs. Engine Dyno available. PHS documented HO Ram Air car IMO most desirable color code 26 Lucerne Blue. $31,000 in complete build/refurb/new part costs to date. Lots more pictures to document resto including all vin, date, and p/n stamps on block/transmission/carb/axle/heads etc. As for now this is a great opportunity to have fun with a very rare 100% mechanically restored car that few people get to see (and hear an M22) on the road. Come Drive and inspect. I would definitely be taking a big loss on total invested in this car but that’s nature of our hobby. Can document all costs and talk final numbers in person. I invested a lot of time finding this car in 2010 so I'd ask for serious interest only. My son wants to get into a Bronco or FJ so one of my Pontiacs must go! Kid time. Call/ Text (214) 929-6466
Don't expect to have a drink and a phone call while cruising in this car. With the 455/M22 and factory 12bolt, it must be "operated" not driven!
How many rare GTOs or big block Chevelles or Corvettes were factory built with an M22 Rockcrusher transmission? Very few. When was an all original 71 or 72 455ho LS5 M22 last available or sold?
