Some of these could be in the low price range, depending on how they were optioned. A GTX typically had more luxury than a Road Runner.<br />The low price entry muscle was Chevelle, Road Runner, and GTO. Mustang, Torino, Camaro, Firebird, Javalin, AMX, Barracuda, and ScRambler. Some of the low price models could get pricey with luxury and muscle options, too. <br />And, then there were the dealer tweaks.clifton.rahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11572888674197026988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5112355325821745788.post-23781012403804526062014-12-21T09:41:43.119-08:002014-12-21T09:41:43.119-08:00The nose is right, hood's right, got the corre...The nose is right, hood's right, got the correct decal/emblems in the correct places. The fact that it's a bit worn is a point in it's favor sice all this stuff is repro'd and easy to add. A peek thru the windshield at the VIN would settle the matter, real GTO would have 242 as the first three digits.<br /><br />The Ram Air option was rare that year....most years actually.RoadmasterMikenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5112355325821745788.post-38816934857486165372014-12-19T04:23:38.476-08:002014-12-19T04:23:38.476-08:00It's a GTO.
