Permalink  

This is about the rareset of the rare as far as GTO's go. 1973 is lowest production year for GTO at 4,806 of those 494 were colonade hardtops, of those only 187 were manual and of those nobody knows how many were 3 Speed. The 3 speed was the standard GTO transmission in 73.

I thought it was a sport coupe colonade style, that's why I thought they were all colonade from 1973-77 era ie BOP Cutlass, Lemans, GS...

You might be techically correct Pascal, I suppose we could describe it as long window and louvers, then also the formal roof line too:

I had a 1975 Olds Cutlass S baby V8 Olds 260 when I was 22 years old, it was my first car late boomer and I should of waited later too, if you know what I mean...a little way too much partying ! Anyway it had the colonade roof like that 73 GTO, I loved the way it handled.

Deal for the dough!.

And doesn't Colonade refer to the style w/ B-Pillar & frameless doors that all the 73-77's A-Body cars had?.

Technically I think so but how would you desribe the various roof line treatments then? I will look in a slaes brochure but I think it goes like this:

Colonade hardtop, Colonade Sport Coupe, I don't know about the opera window ones.
