Vehicle Description
The right look, the right features, and plenty of V8 power all come
together on this 1968 Pontiac GTO. So look over the full package of
this well-done muscle car hardtop.
The 1968 coupe launched the second gen GTO, and really brought this
into a whole new category of muscle car. The color-matched Endura
front end, dual hood scoops, correct badging, and big dual exhaust
tips are all about intimidation. And not only do you get a
pillarless hardtop profile, but also 1968 launched a true fastback
style for the muscle car coupe. The Solar Red is the
factory-correct color, and so you found a GTO that has been bold
from day one. There's also a hint of upper-class within this sporty
style thanks the mirror-like shine of the rear chrome bumper, and
the taut fit of the premium black vinyl roof. And the Rally II
wheels do great job of adding to both the speedy and stylish
look.
Not only do you have a bold red exterior, but also that attitude
continues inside. And the trim tag tells us this GTO was born with
this attractive all-red combo. There's a stock and clean look on
the upholstery, carpeting, headliner, and dash. So it's easy to
show off this car's bold style. There are even some nice features
that will have people wanting to go for a ride, like the upgraded
AM/FM/CD stereo, upgraded Sony speakers, and factory air
conditioning (blower will need servicing before this is functional
again.) And as a true GTO, this was built for a terrific driving
experience. You slide into a proper bucket seat, grab the
wood-rimmed three-spoke steering wheel, and gaze at a full round
gauge panel. Looking for the tach? It's on the hood for a classic
head-up style unit that Pontiac made famous.
It wouldn't be a '68 GTO without the big 400 cubic-inch V8 under
the hood. It has a classic look with the correct Pontiac turquoise
on the block and an air grabber w/callout. But as you get closer,
you see this mighty V8 was upgraded for even more power. This has
performance upgrades like a four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock
intake, and Hooker long tube headers that add even more power while
also contributing to the rumble of the dual exhaust. It's a strong
runner, and it comes with great cruising features. This includes
the three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, power
brakes, front discs, and wide BF Goodrich T/As.
The sale comes complete with plenty of paperwork, including Pontiac
Historic Services (PHS) documentation, original warranty card, a
reproduction buildsheet, and owner's manual. So now you know you're
looking at a bold real-deal classic GTO with a quality price. Don't
let this deal slip away, call today!
