Original Paint '69 Trans Am, GM of Canada Show Car
 
I can't believe I haven't seen this car before - sounds like a real find. Mostly original paint with some touch-ups. I could see this ending around the six-figure mark but I doubt it will sell on Ebay.

Looks like the entire drivers door has been touched up , although alot of the car looks blotchy between bright white and yellowish ..Could be the pics

Car hasn't been "restored" but engine and subframe looks like its been painted again at a minimum.

I agree it does look like it has been fluffed in areas.

Here's another comparable car with what looks to be super nice original paint. Asking price for this one is $156,000....

Ahh Bob Vila, ok that explains why the knurled wood finish on the console looks so good :)

How old was the video? This car is in upstate NY. I know the owner, though I've never seen the car.

Seems like 4 speed RAIII cars top off about a 100K these days.Barrett had a 73 and a 105 sold car this last week.I never like private ebay auctions.Tom
