Special thank you to all our customers for entrusting us to park the car of your dreams in your driveway, while preserving automotive history for future generations to embrace and enjoy. -Grams family & Volo Museum staff Factory colors! Try finding another one! Plus it has the #'s matching engine, trans, rear and is documented by Pontiac Historical Services. Invest and have fun at the same time. Purely iconic! Motortrend named the 1968 Pontiac GTO it's car of the year, recognizing its engineering, styling, market timing, automotive concept, and mechanical achievement. The GTO was also considered a defining muscle car of its era with its unique design and powerful engine. It's time to rediscover this illustrious vehicle all over again! EXTERIOR: Born Starlight black, and boy does it look good! The fresh looking paint is beautifully laid out then polished to a glass like finish. When looking down the side of the body it is straight as an arrow with smooth contours and crisp lines. The panels were nicely aligned with very consistent gaps that are above average. The doors close easily with minimal effort. It is claimed to have original metal, after inspecting it I would agree. The body, floors and in the trunk are dry metal. The front grille and headlight bezels look fantastic. The rubber front bumper does not have any cracks. The rear bumper was rechromed and the remaining trim has a lustrous shine. The vinyl top is in great shape and was white from the factory, but the previous owner liked black better. It's sitting pretty on Pontiac 14'' Rally II wheels wrapped in BFG tires. INTERIOR: Wow, the red really pops! This car has got some serious eye appeal! It was red from the factory, verified by the original trim tag and PHS docs. It is restored to original with recovered bucket seats and a Hurst 4 speed manual shifter in the very handy center console. Deluxe seatbelts front and back. The rear bench was also recovered to match. The door panels, visors and carpeting were all replaced. The headliner was replaced and has some wrinkles, the dome light works! The dash pad is not cracked. The gauges, bezel, steering column and wheel appear to be extremely nice originals. Even the original am radio is in place, bonus: it has it's original 8-track player ready to be put back in! That's a cool conversation piece. ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It has its original 400 cubic inch, high output engine bringing the horsepower from 350 to 360 with a hotter cam and ram air exhaust manifolds. Correct casting dates and codes on block, heads and intake. The block has a matching VIN # and the unit # matches the PHS docs and even the correct WS code. The original, rebuilt Quadrajet carburetor, correct chrome valve covers, and air cleaner assembly are an added bonus. Nicely equipped with optional power steering and power brakes. Under the hood, fender wells and firewall are all neatly painted satin black. Overall, it is a clean and proper motor compartment. TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The underside of the trunk lid and jamb are both painted body color. The weatherstrip was replaced. Inside the pan metal is all solid and rust free with neatly applied spatter finish paint. UNDERSIDE: The underneath of this car looks very clean. The first thing I noticed was the chassis components and floors are very dry, rust-free metal. They've been prepped and painted black to look good. The steering was rebuilt. The springs and shocks were replaced. The rubber body mounts were also replaced. It has a fresh dual exhaust system with Dynomax mufflers. The brake system is functioning properly, and the e-brake assembly is hooked up too. Looking up at the motor it is very clean Pontiac blue, the starter looks new. It has its original Muncie 4-speed transmission and 10 bolt rear end with 3.55 gears. SERVICE: After our thorough
