Lance Kramers 69 RA V T/A will be at the Russo auction the end of this month in Scottsdale.I have seen the car,nice,complete RA V factory crate motor less carb and exhaust.I think it sold this year for 115K plus fees.
Will be interesting to see what it pulls.I know the researve is VERY high!Tom

The car did sell at the Mecum auction last spring - 100k all in I seem to recall. Nice car...but how much is a RAV crate motor worth over loosing the original #'s matching RAIII?? Don't flame me for being a dork, but, I'd rather have a numbers matching RAIII 4 speed car than one with a RAV motor. Unless, of course, one came with paperwork proving Pontiac put in the RAV !

the car sold for 115K plus fees.If it was a numbers matching III in the condition it is I think it would pull maybe 70K.Now if you had a 69 T/A with a non matching engine like a LOT of them are,a V crate motor will and has inhanced the value.I have a 69 T/A with a complete 303 RA V engine but ALSO have the correct numbers matching III engine.

I also would rather have the V over the III and would pay more.
