W:drool:W is right plus AC too!
Seems like the engine/trans also perhaps rear axle may be replacements w/ auction description using the word 'original' frequently to describe almost everything but the 'clearly stamped' drivetrain components also the reworked/rebuilt by previous owner thing too.:hmmm:
:beers:

Pontiac buddy of mine has questions on this car.

Quote:
No. But there has never been any supporting documentation specifically to the existence of a 455 in 1970 being built to RAIII or RAIV specs. It does not exist. This car is a basic 1970 455 GTO, nothing more. The real performance leader GTO in 1970 was the 400 RAIV, not the 455.

More from Matt on this car:

Quote:
T42 was a hood option and was independent of the RAIII or RAIV options which were only available on the 400 in '70. Here is an excerpt from an article written by Thomas A. Demauro for Hemmings a couple of years ago. This option was available on the L75 455 engine and produced 360 rated HP. The RAIII 400 was rated at 366 and the RAIV 400 was rated at 370. So the guy has a lot of his facts wrong. He's a scammer.


Standard with the D-port 366-hp L74 Ram Air 400 and Round-Port 370-hp L67 Ram Air IV 400 engine options for 1969 and 1970 GTOs, the code T42 Hood Air Inlet could be ordered optionally on the 1970 GTO's D-port L75 360-hp 455 as well.

So could the t42 ram air hood be an option without ram air?
Seems it indeed is a unicorn :)

build sheet says 455 HO , so a 455 ho is no big deal? so no ram air? just a hood with scoops cut out?
