1968 Pontiac GTO

1968 Pontiac GTO PHS documented 4-speed Solar red and Parchment (white) interior. Clear clean title, odometer showing 145,000 miles and believe to be accurate. This is a true barn find.... GTO was purchased 1968 from Knafel Pontiac dealership (dealer#197) for the solepurpose to drag race. Knafel was well known was from 59-71 to sponsored drivers and won hundreds of races numerous regional and national championships and was purchased with sole intention to drag race. No ac,no power steering & no power brakes.Options documented include:-Hood mounted tachometer-Rally gauge cluster-Dual exhaust extensions-Retractable headlamp covers-Rally II wheels-G 70x14 red wide oval tires-Pushbutton radio with manual antenna-Rear seat speaker-Electric clockOriginal red paint and white interior.
GTO has been modified from original owner...Edelbrock Torker intake manifold date between 69-70Holly carb, carb does need to be rebuilt for GTO to start.Transmission is all aluminum 1961 Corvette T10-1CHurst 4-speed shifterRear axle replaced with 12 bolt from 1967 Chevelle Engine is original numbers matching WT engine, VIN#242378P274328NMW Ladder bar & driveshaft safety loop installedAlso have SS Craigers rims with wide tires that can go with car. Rims would need re-condition.New rear quarter panel skins included in auction.
GTO was driven from 1968 to 1978 then owner had passed away and wife kept GTO until she passed away 2016. Car had been sitting for 38 years. The nephew sold it to the gentlemen I purchased from in 2016. GTO was started by portable gas can and different carburetor by previous owner.GTO has loopy sound like big cam in engine. GTO was put on jack stands ran through all gears including reverse with no issues or funny noises from transmission.
By no means car is road worthy, northern car very rusty. Trunk pans, interior pans, brakes and fuel lines all need replaced. Frame is rusty but is solid.
I have to many projects and realistically could not get to this project for another 7 years and need the room. This is no reserve no buy it now auction. Again, numbers matching engine.Buyer responsible for shipping I will help load on trailer. Any questions feel free to contact me.
