The Pontiac GTO has always been a very popular and sought after automobile among muscle car and classic car enthusiasts alike. The GTO was originally introduced in 1964 as a high performance trim package on the Pontiac LeMans until 1966 when it became its own model. 1968 was the first year for the second generation GTO and along with it came a massive cosmetic redesign of the popular muscle car. The GTO now featured a curving semi-fastback roofline, dual inlet hood scoops, and the popular color matched Endura front bumper. This 1968 Pontiac GTO convertible is an excellent example of these iconic muscle cars with just under 99000 actual miles and is 1 of 766 GTO's built for the 1968 model year featuring the High Output 400 cubic inch V8 and 4-speed manual transmission. This GTO benefits from an older restoration that still presents very well. The GTO is finished in its factory correct Verdoro Green exterior that is in overall excellent condition. The Verdoro Green exterior is nicely complimented by the GTO's factory chrome and stainless trim, dual air inlet hood scoops, factory correct hood mounted tachometer, GTO emblems, trunk mounted Hurst emblem and period correct PMD rally II wheels wrapped in redline BFGoodrich Silvertown Radial Tires. The GTO's Black vinyl convertible top is in excellent condition and features a glass rear window. The GTO's correct Black vinyl interior, featuring bucket seats and a center console, is in very good condition with only minor defects and wear to note. Powering this stunning GTO is its date-coded correct High Output 400 cubic inch V8 backed by a correct 4-speed manual transmission. Both the engine and transmission perform just as they should and deliver that very rewarding driving experience that only these well restored muscle cars can deliver. Transferring power to rear tires is the GTO's correct Saf-T-Track limited slip rear differential equipped with a final drive gear ratio of 3.55:1. This GTO delivers an intoxicating V8 exhaust note thanks to the the High Output 400 cubic inch V8 breathing through its factory routed dual exhaust. This GTO is very well equipped with factory options such as: power steering, power brakes, power convertible top, hood mounted tachometer, power antenna (in-op), Saf-T-Track limited slip rear differential, AM/FM radio, rear seat speaker, retractable headlamp covers, rally gauge cluster, tined glass, heater/defrost and variable speed wipers. This GTO is very well documented by its PHS documentation, reproduction window sticker, and a copy of the original dealer invoice. If you are in the market for a well-optioned, second generation GTO convertible or are just in the market for a very nice, convertible muscle car that is turn-key ready to enjoy and would present very well at your local cruise-in or car show, then you will want to take a very close look at this gorgeous 1968 Pontiac GTO convertible.
