For Sale at Auction: 1972 Pontiac GTO in Youngville, North Carolina

What a wonderful story and what provenance for this 1972 Pontiac GTO. Mr. Vincent Pierotti Jr.- a crew member of the USS San Jose- special ordered this car while stationed in the Philippines. He went through Yutivo Corporation (which was the overseas General Motors liaison). The car was designated for delivery at Winkel Motors Inc., a Pontiac-GMC dealer in Reno, Nevada. Since 1972, this car has retained a high level of originality. It still has the original numbers-matching drivetrain and "731" Saddle interior. And while the paint is not factory original, the car has only been repainted once (in '96) in the correct "50" Brittany Beige.
This car was built in the Fremont, CA. General Motors plant. It is equipped with a 400ci-4 barrel V8 engine that is paired with a "M20" Muncie 4-speed. There are bucket seats with a center console, air conditioning, Soft-Ray glass, hood tach, power steering, disc-front power brakes, PMD Rally II wheels with Uniroyal Tiger Paw GTS white-letter tires and more. This '72 GTO is accompanied with extensive original paperwork & documentation (original window sticker, GM letters, overseas order forms, original financial documents, etc.) along with former service records. This car was recently acquired from the Bill Barker estate, having resided there for some time. It is a lovingly-preserved example worthy of your acquisition.
