Take a look at this Cameo White 1972 GTO owned by Bill Knoth from Katy, Texas. Here is Bill's story, "My wife purchased this 72 for my birthday. Little did she know how much time & money would go into her 5 year frame off restoration! Today we cruise her to car shows and local ice cream shops. Always a head turner and a BLAST to drive."CLICK->

Ray Dilley sent in these pictures of a sad looking 1972 GTO in St. Joseph, Missouri. Ray commented, "This car has been sitting for about 14 years. The tags say 1986. I have tried to buy it a dozen times but he says it not for sale. When it was parked, it still had the vinyl top and had no rust." Ray wrote back in a few weeks and added, "I just got it bought today it is a 400 4-speed with air, power steering, in dash tach and all gauges, it has a 3.55 limited slip, 5 factory honeycomb wheels, and a factory dual snorkle air cleaner. Now for all the good stuff that came with it: new GM front fenders still in GM box's, front valance, rear valance, front bumper, rear bumper,wheel well moldings, rocker moldings, all side moldings, front park lights, front park light chrome bezels, side scoops, headlight trims, fiberglass headlight housings, and a bunch of little things that I have not went through yet, and it ALL is still in the GM box's. I did look up some information on this car and they only built 1519 4-speeds, kinda rare."CLICK-> 
This car seems to have a lot of potiential. It does not appear to be very rusty. I believe that is a dead rat laying behind the tire.CLICK-> 
Ray got the car running and took it home. Ray commented, "It has the orginal 4-speed and the orginal 3.55 safe-t-track. The motor has been changed. It now has a '73 400 4-barrel. It runs great. I looked it up and they only made 1519 4-speeds. Even the air works and all the gauges including the tach!"CLICK-> 
Front end view of Ray's 1972 GTO hardtop. You can see how Pontiac put the hood scoops near the front of the hood instead of locating them in the middle of the hood.CLICK-> 
Looks like Ray could use some new seat covers and a new carpet. Otherwise, it doesn't look to bad after sitting for 14 years.CLICK-> 
Pontiac didn't make any convertible GTOs in 1972. They would not let you select the GTO option on the LeMans Sport convertible in 1972, but you could select the $41 GTO nose job! There were 163 of these created. For the $41 you got the GTO endura bumper, hood, and front fenders! The GTO was an option on the LeMans Sport in 1972. You cannot tell a LeMans Sport from a GTO optioned LeMans sport from the VIN. So this IS about the closest thing to a 1972 GTO convertible you could get. Steve Robbins from Oakville, Ontario, Canada has owned this beauty since 1974. It was originally purchased from the Toronto showroom of Roy Foss Motors for $3663.00. It was built on May 23, 1972, and was sold in August of same year.CLICK->

Beige 1972 GTO optioned 1972 LeMans Sport convertible. Steve says that this car scored 79 out of 100 points judged by Legendary Motors of Milton Ontario. The engine is a 350ci with an added Holley 750 and a Edelbrock manifold.PICTURE SET CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE ... |
