The other thread is locked, but I think the production figures for RAIII/manual tranny/AC is too high. Alas, I don't have my numbers - someone else has mine - but considering about 4400 RAIII cars were built, the number "452" doesn't make sense. We can narrow it down and assume there were only 1500 or so GTOs with the RAIII/M20 combo, so the number 452 seems even more glaring.

Diego Grant sent Don and me some statistics. The number he shows is the following: All 1970 GTO's with L74(Ram Air III),PS,4spd, and A/C.totals 425 cars. |

I would love to see where those stats are from because they just seem too high to my eyes.
Also, from my memory, I don't remember any combo as you've listed that would have included PS. . . oh well, nice car anyway! Ironically, the guy who has my paperwork had a famous dad in the Pontiac world - I need to get 'em back! |

I've got 2432 with RA III and M20 in my materials. The only 425 number I have (or did the previous poster mean to type 452?) is RA III, M21, Judges in 1970. Love to get my hands on any chart that breaks down by A/C and power steering with engine combo...

I believe the number 425 was counting GTO's and Judges. I thought the Judge count was 142cars or something in that range.Even though if your counting total GTO production at over 30,000 cars and 3600 judges I think either number is quite rare. Ive only seen a handful of them in over 25 years of collecting them. As for the deal I like to thank Rob with all his patience as it took a long time to get this deal done and would like to tell him here also that it was a pleasure meeting him and thanks for being a stand up guy. Good luck with the car as I know you will enjoy it for years to come...Don
