Vehicle Description
Marking the end of the original generation of Pontiac GTO came
about in 1967, with only a few styling changes to further enhance
the exterior. They included a wire mesh front grill, wider rocker
sill moldings with GTO emblem moved from the fender to the forward
portion, and redesigned rear tail lamps. This final year Goat also
features a slightly longer body and wider wheel track for added
stability, along with new Federally mandated safety features like
padded dash, new dash knobs, and energy-absorbing steering wheel &
column. The engine size grew for the first time to an even 400ci,
available in three horsepower packages.
This well-survived 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible comes finished in
Cameo Ivory over code correct 224- Parchment interior with matching
Ivory White top. Optioned with its original, numbers matching
WS-code 400ci High Output V8 engine, Hurst-shifted 4-speed
wide-ratio transmission with center console, power folding
convertible top, Rally instrumentation with in-dash tachometer, 14"
Rally II wheels wrapped in BF Goodrich Silvertown Radial Redline
tires measuring 225/70R14, AM push-button radio, original Custom
Sports steering wheel, 3.55 Safe-T-Track rear axle ratio, and added
power-assisted brakes & steering for easier maneuvering.
This GTO Convertible was built in Pontiac, MI and sold from a
dealership based in the Grand Rapids area when new. It was last
located in St. Clair Shores, MI near Detroit in June 2011 showing
39,840 miles on the odometer. Some evidence we have is a Michigan
title showing 'actual mileage'. This fact, and the overall
condition of the car itself did support such a claim, but it will
be sold as mileage exempt. Having seen only an exterior cosmetic
restoration about 35 years ago that included a complete repaint to
the current color of Cameo White (originally very rare code M- Plum
Mist) along with new interior carpeting, the balance of the car
remained wonderfully original. This included the original seat
upholstery, dash pad, door panels, seatbelts, instrumentation,
exterior trim and bright work, etc.
The paint finish continues to hold much gloss but has begun to show
signs of aging. It was parked for many years, so in June 2013 new
tires were installed, the heater core replaced with new hoses &
clamps, transmission removed for the flywheel to be resurfaced and
receive a new clutch assembly & throw-out bearing. To improve
overall driver enjoyment, the power steering assembly & pump were
added along with a new master brake cylinder & booster system and a
full brake adjustment. It would sell on to the next owner in
February 2014 adding it to a large collection in Edmonton, Alberta,
Canada for the next 10 years.
Recently, this GTO returned to St. Louis in April 2024 and received
the following attention to ensure it's ready for the next owner to
drive and enjoy immediately. A new white convertible top was fitted
along with new window weather stripping, a new stainless steel gas
tank installed with sending unit, all new Waldrons correct HO
exhaust system, new rocker panel molding kit, new spark
plugs/distributor cap/rotor/wires installed, new air filter, fresh
engine oil/filter, all new front & rear brake shoes with hardware,
new rear drums, new front bearing and wheel seals, and fresh wiper
blades. Inside, the car received a new center console top plate and
rear box bezel, and door sill plates.
It will come with complete PHS documentation and clear Missouri
title. The current odometer reading shows only 40,386 miles. Rarely
does one find the opportunity to own one of only 9,517 convertibles
produced in 1967, especially an original High-Output version
equipped with a 4-speed transmission! It continues to possess the
correct '670' heads and complete date-code correct components
throughout! Please feel welcome to call with additional questions
or schedule an opportunity to view this vehicle in person! Thanks
for looking!
