Bruce Middlemass'
1973 GTO
Here's
Bruce Middlemass' 1973 Pontiac GTO.Bruce says
 | " After selling my 75 Grand Am, with all the NOS and used parts needed torestore it correctly, I found myself with an open parking spot and neededsomething to fill it. Actually, I just like having a bunch of A-bodiesaround! So..............I went out and bought this 1973 GTO. |
It was sold new at Cardinal Pontiac in Port Chester, NY. I have all thedocuments from the dealership and all the receipts for any repairs that were ever done to the car since November 1972.
Price of car as optioned, withtax, was $4,450.45. A 68 Buick Skylark GS got $1,383 as a trade-in.Payments were $97.00 a month through GMAC. The car is basically a stripper.
Beyond the wheel-well mouldings and door edge guards, the only other stuffit's got is a AM/FM radio and a 3.42 posi. No air, no power, no nothing.The car has been repainted once, and currently shows 30,402 miles.
Theprevious owner (I am the 3rd) installed 1968 #16 heads, Edelbrock intake and carb, with an MSD ignition box and distributor. He gave me all the originalparts with the car.
Car runs really strong as it is on a 50/50 blend of 110 octane leaded and 94 unleaded, but I have other plans for this one....
Thanks again Pete. I'll send you more pictures of my collection when I can.
Signed, Bruce Middlemass
P.S. Pete, I believe one of my 3 other 73 GTO's is one of the twelve 4-speedsport coupes assembled in Canada. VIN #2F37T31531076.
This is a Burma Brown car with Saddle interior, most options except power windows and locks. Sold new at Turnpike Motors, Westport, CT. "
