    Looking for a 1973 or 74 Gran Sport 455 . A restored driver or excellent original condition car (but, not a trailer queen). Does not need to be numbers matching.

    Here are must haves:
    Colonnade Coupe
    Originally a big block U or V code car
    Turbo 400
    Buckets & console
    Posi
    A/C (working)
    Paint & body in show or near show condition

    Open on color and all other options. PM with possibilities.

    John Chamberlain has a beautiful black, red interior Stage 1 that was for sale awhile back. It definitely checks the boxes. Joe

    Thats the difference between restored driver 25-35k and trailer queen

    Yup. Definitely looking for a driver in that $30K range. I'd even spend a bit more for the right Gran Sport but not even close to the $50-$60K number.

    Interior is a 9.5. White buckets. Motor is built but will not go with the car. Numbers matching motor (that has been rebuilt) would. Have pics and video's in the cloud somewhere.
