Watching the recent auctions Ray is right about a six figure price tag for documented low milage originals. At Norwalk there was freshly restored one for 62k. Would be nice to keep it in Canada but with the US dollar so high its hard to compete.
Neat car, there's a white with blue stripes and a red interior here in Three Hills, sold new at Kipp Scott Pontiac in Red Deer. It's been around the block a few times but I know the car well, had many a ride and watched many street races with that baby. 74 SD455 auto.
When you mentioned a Red 74 SD-455 Trans Am in the Prairies, well the first think I thought of was Randy Bachman. Back in 1974 Bachman-Turner Overdrive made a promotional film (they didn't call them videos back then) for "You Ain't Seen Nothin Yet". Randy Bachman was at the wheel of a Buccaneer Red 74 Trans Am with white interior, honeycomb wheels and the screaming chicken on the hood.
Not the same car apparently. It should be interesting to see where this car ends up as they have always been collector's items. That one sounds like a real find.

I don't judge a man by how far he's fallen, but by how far back he bounces - Patton
Here's a picture of a picture I took of Les's car, probably around '97. I'm sure he'd have saved every piece of paper related to the car. He had a bit of an ordeal when he ordered the car, it kept getting turned down/delayed, but he perservered and it finally came through. He was mulling over selling the car back in 98/99, I said back then he shouldn't take any less than 50G for it.
We used to have a twin to that car sitting in out drive way years ago.Owner finally decided not to fix it and he sold it for $1500.00.It is weird that a lot these cars seem to pop up low mileage survivors.
NO DOUGHT, THIS ONE WOULD BE A LOT MORE FUN THAN THE '75 350 4BBL ESPRIT I HAD AS A TEENAGER!
