1968 Pontiac Gto Convertible on 2040-cars

1968 GTO Convertible Restored numbers matching Awesome GTO!

Up for auction is my gorgeous 1968 Pontiac GTO Convertible.  It is a true 24267 (350 HP) car with numbers matching 400 motor and Turbo Hydra-Matic transmission.  This car looks great, runs strong, sounds fantastic and gets shouts of approval wherever I go.

Here are some particulars…

In 2007 (about 8,300 miles ago) the car was fully restored including:

·       Body thoroughly disassembled (shop said it had all original sheet metal with stampings), refurbished and put back together.

·       Beautiful new red paint and new white top.

·       Engine was torn down and rebuilt including new pistons, rings, Lunati cam, and many other parts and improvements.

·       The new top also had new pads, weather strip, frame, switch, and motor installed.

·       The trunk compartment was detailed to look brand new.

·       The undercarriage is beautiful with spotless floor pans, and a clean, rust-free frame that was bead blasted then primed and had chassis black applied.

·       Interior is show ready with new seat covers, new carpeting, and correct date coded front and rear seat belts, etc.

Also the car shows two sets of wheels and tires in the pictures.  A set of like new bias ply red-line tires on beautiful Rally II wheels or a brand new set of BF Goodrich TA Radials on Cragar S/S wheels.  If you win the auction you pick the Rally IIs or the Cragars, if the winning bid is over $36,000 you get both sets.

The Hurst His n Hers shifter works perfectly with the rebuilt in 2012 Turbo Hydra-Matic automatic transmission for crisp shifts and robust acceleration.

This great GTO comes with some Pontiac Historical Services paperwork, the 1968 owner's manual and some restoration receipts as well as a laminated reproduction window sticker.  The VIN is 242678B119655.  A black convertible boot also goes to the auction winner as well as a few small extra parts and paraphernalia and two sets of keys.

This car is ready to enjoy.  The only glaring weakness is the vent windows' chrome needs to be re-done.    This is a 45 year old car that appears to be in great condition for its age, but it is 45 years old.  Feel free to e-mail questions and I’ll do my best to answer them, or better yet, come to Rochester, NY to see the car first hand or get an independent inspection done to see what a great ride this GTO really is.  The fair reserve on this car as well as the "Buy It Now" price are indicative of the value of this beautiful classic car.
