Hello to all ebayers,...PLEASE READ.....

.....As with this auction and ALL OTHERS I'll be listing in the next several weeks each listing will start with a reasonable starting price and come with NO RESERVE!!! If there is only one bid per listing, that bidder will own the item for the starting price period!

.....up for your consideration and/or bid is a 1968 REAL GTO either as a parts car or an aggressive and serious full-out restoration project car. I'll do the best I can to list all the "pros and cons" of this GTO. The best thing is that the Pontiac is a REAL GTO and not a clone, recreation, tribute or fake,...furthermore it has the popular hide-away headlight option and the original GTO neoprene front bumper. Additionally this GTO has the factory front DISC brake option versus the standard drum set-up, please be advised that the calipers are missing. The GTO also came equipped with a neat and unusual feature for the era called REAR DEFROST. The rear defrost grille is in place with the factory cut out, but the electric motor is long gone,...however the original rear defrost chrome metal dash switch is still in place and factory wired. For those not informed, rear defrost in the early days was an electric motor blowing hot air on to the glass,.....NOT as the rear defrost ((we are all used to of today)) with the "hot wires" embedded in the glass.

The frame is very good to excellent in condition,...with only one bad spot of rust threw on the drivers side just past the rear-end, (not a structural/strength issue). This one small area could be cut out and replaced. I have posted photos of the frame because it's one of the good points of this GTO that's lost most of its original glory. Besides the GTO itself, additionally 2 EXTRA PARTS come with the GTO,...a front valance panel that has a few dents and bends but is restore-able,...also one additional passenger front fender ((came from a Lemans/Tempest)) that also has some rust/dent issues but is also very restore-able. Email me if interested and I can send you additional pictures that I could not include on ebay because of the limit of 24 pictures for private sellers,...((only dealers can post more than 24 pictures on one listing)). These additional pictures not posted on ebay show the rear defrost previously mentioned, another view of the front valance panel, another photo of the extra passenger fender ((inside)) showing the solid fender lip that bolts to the inner liner)) and additional frame pictures.

The VIN is original and in place as FACTORY INSTALLED back in 1968,...UNFORTUNATELY THERE IS NO BODY TAG,...someone removed it years ago before I acquired it. The floorboards,...((front and rear)) would need to be replaced...and ((as it is at the current time)) would not support very much weight.

Threw many credible sources I've learned that all GTO VINs start with the numbers 242, research this for your own edification. The obvious bad part of this GTO is the condition, the lack of the original drive train, no body tag, bent/rusted sheet metal. The GTO's suspension is completely free-rolling all the way around and not seized. I've had the GTO since 2004, prior to this it was in an old auto junk yard from approximately the late '70s/early '80s. I have no idea what condition the rear-end or other components are in and the winning bidder should expect that any and all components will need a rebuilding from sitting for years. What you see is what you get...sorry, I do not have any doors, hood, trunk lid or interior parts,.....however the high bidder does get one extra front valance panel and passenger fender as mentioned earlier, ((see pictures)).

I've stated all that I know about this GTO as factual as possible. Due to the age and amount of sitting for years, this GTO does not come with any guarantees or warranties expressed or implied and is sold as is where is. For the winning bidder I offer FREE delivery BUT only if you are local and/or up to only 20 miles away. If you are 21-100 miles from the GTO I offer delivery for a fee of $1.00 per mile. I do not offer any delivery options over 100 miles and I certainly do not offer any long haul options from state to state either. Any winning bidder that is in the "over 100 mile category" it is up to you to make shipping arrangements and of course all transportation and shipping costs are the expense of you...((the winning high bidder)). At my discretion, I may extend the free delivery from 21-100 miles if the GTO reaches a dollar amount I deem acceptable. Should you use your own trailer/equipment to pick up the GTO,...I offer FREE loading assistance to you with my Rollback and equipment,...or I'll assist the carrier of your choice ((should you hire one)),...also FREE of charge .

PLEASE NOTE;...the state of Maine does not/will not issue a title for ANY automobile/vehicle of 1995 or prior. I do not have a title and the (GTO) comes with a bill-of-sale as ownership. ADDITIONAL NOTE;...some states will not accept a bill-of-sale as ownership of a vehicle,...please check with your individual state. FOR THOSE PERSPECTIVE BIDDERS THAT FIT INTO THIS LAST CATEGORY,...please let me know and I can contact the state of Maine and they will issue a legal typed document for ALL 50 STATES and you can take THIS DOCUMENT / PAPERWORK to your state DMV you reside in and YOUR STATE will issue you a new title in YOUR STATE. I've done this may of times before and this is the only perfectly legal way I know of for bidders from title-demanding states to get a title on a vehicle from a non-title issuing state.

I believe the pictures speak for them self, and what doesn't I've included in the typed description,........if you feel I have missed anything or you have any questions what so ever, please feel free to send me an email and I'll answer the question(s) asap. Upon the completion of the auction I ask that the winning bidder commit to the transaction with payment in the form of a $200.00 deposit within 48 hours and follow-up with full payment in 7 days, or contact me for additional time if needed. If you have no intent of following threw with the complete payment of the auction item, please just don't bid and waste everyone's time playing games,...any non paying bidders will be reported to both ebay and all 3 major credit reporting agency's.

********KEEP WATCH,...a lot of interesting older ANTIQUE/CLASSIC AUTOS (1949-1985) better shape than this coming in the next several weeks/months,...ALL of which will start with a modest starting price w/ NO RESERVE!!!********

.....thanks for looking, Bob.

Wanted: 1967 Pontiac GTO for a special Father's Day

Thu, 07 Jun 2012

Jim Sharp of Elkhorn, Wisconsin needs a red 1967 Pontiac GTO to make his dad's Father's Day, possibly his last one, something extra special.
Back in the '60s, Jim's dad, Ken, drove a cherry red 1967 GTO to California for a job. He met a girl, got married and decided his wife's 1965 Ford Mustang was more fuel efficient than the Goat and the GTO was sold. As the story almost always goes, Ken has had seller's regret ever since.
Jim always meant to find a 1967 GTO and, with his dad's help, restore it. But life got in the way, time slipped by and Ken was recently diagnosed with esophageal cancer and given about three months to live.

Lutz says GM was working on 5th-gen Pontiac GTO

Thu, 08 Aug 2013

Bob Lutz was one of the forces behind bringing the Holden Monaro to the United States, as the ill-fated Pontiac GTO in 2004. And while that car received critical acclaim, it was a sales disappointment. Now, Road & Track is reporting that our suspicions were correct - Pontiac was working on a two-door, G8-based coupe before it was shuttered.
In that R&T article, which is no longer available online, Lutz explained that the new GTO would solve many of the issues found in the original. Car Advice speculates that the new model would have look like a rebadged version of the Holden Coupe 60 Concept from 2008, a conclusion we also came to.
That car would have been a big departure from the 2004 to 2006 GTO. It has an extremely long hood and short rear deck, with an almost fastback roofline and a wide greenhouse with a tall beltline. The wheel arches were very pronounced, and the chin and rocker panel splitters gave it a race-ready look. Would it have been enough to make the GTO work in the US? We think it might of, but it looks like we'll never know.

Trans Am Depot teases 2014 GTO

Mon, 24 Jun 2013

Here comes the Judge. Court is in session. The verdict is in. How many more tired clichés can we come up with? It hardly seems to matter, because it's happening: Trans Am Depot has announced via the teaser video below that it is launching a 2014 GTO, complete with Carousel Red (bright orange, really) paint and full Judge badging.
The car is based on Trans Am Depot's 6T9 Goat, which, in case you don't get the reverential references, is meant to mimic the look of the 1969 Pontiac GTO. As with the company's other cars -including the 2013 Hurst Edition Trans Am we recently drove - the GTO will be based on the current Chevy Camaro, which means two doors, V8 engines and rear-wheel drive, just like the muscle cars of days past.
As for actual details of what's under the 2014 GTO's hood, we're completely left hanging. We'd expect some sort of power adder (turbo, supercharger or possibly some other form of a highly massaged version of the Camaro's V8), and we certainly know that GM has any number of hi-po crate engines to choose from.
