70 GTO convert w/VOE-I didn’t think it was worth this much

[Lee Stewart]

W73 did not bypass the mufflers. All it did was to adjust the exhaust flow to use less baffles in the standard mufflers. The reason why it was not available on the Ram Air engines was because they came from the factory with high flow, low restriction mufflers.

As an investment at this price, if what a fella really wanted also considering how many like it will ever be available + where Cuda Ragtops are at + what others are spending money on w/ the world may soon end/let's enjoy life now attitude of late, it may not actually be that foolish of a buy?

The car came factory equipped with VOE. It is on the PHS and build sheet. Based on the build date it may have been one of the last cars equipped with the VOE option.

The GTO brought good money but not astronomical or an unrealistic price. As many have posted, there are Chevelle's that have little documentation or rare options that bring that amount or more. For every GTO built it '70, Chevrolet built 2 Chevelle SS's.....Who knows how many more 1970 Chevelle SS's have been built in the last 30 years....
