I AM LISTING THIS CAR FOR MY FRIENDS FATHER - THIS IS NOT MY CAR!
This is a (Numbers Matching) GTO, being sold to fulfill financial responsibilities. These "AUTHENTIC" non-clone cars finished bring top dollar! So bid early and bid with confidence! Please do not bid if you do not plan on fulfilling your financial commitment!
Wow...What a Rare Find! This is an (UN-RESTORED) 1968 GTO Convertible...242 Vin Car! The car is in need of a complete restoration. You can own this original numbers matching car! The original motor is currently disassembled, but in perfect "un-restored" condition. The motor is a 350 HP RA III 400 WT, 068 CAM block with 16 heads and is not damaged. It also comes with the original carburetor and exhaust manifold. The transmission is a typical m 21 four speed with its casting number matching the vin. The car has its original 355 Posi 10 bolt rear end with its 4 original rims, trimrings, centercaps and lug nuts. The frame is solid! The floor has been patched and should be redone with new available sections. The fenders, doors, hood and nose are very good. The hideaway system needs some attention. The quarter panels have been replaced. The rear trunk lid and bumper are fin for now, but should be replaced for a perfect restoration. The dash has no crack and the top and buckets have no rips. The back seats are missing. Please note...There is no build sheet with the car. The car is currently running and driving with a 4s 400 with 350 heads and an unconfirmed ob8 cam. The rebuilt motor has approx 45K miles and is supposedly 9 to 1 compression. The motor runs very good and the transmission has a brand new clutch and pressure plate. This car can be driven on pump gas, enjoy it and restore it as you find time and money. The pedigree of this car is intact, but it needs TLC and misc. parts which are readily available. I believe the car may need front brakes and possibly an alignment. The car has been stored off the road since 1987. Again...this is not restored, but when it is, you will have an amazing car!!! If your feedback is low or negative, please call me before bidding! I reserve the right to cancel your bid or to end the auction early since the car is also being advertised locally.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate the seller at (585) 285-9900
Thanks and Happy Bidding!

GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll
Tue, 25 Feb 2014
588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.
Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap
Tue, 30 Sep 2014Generation Gap is mining the Lingenfelter collection again this week to compare two very different interpretations of the Pontiac Firebird. An original 1968 example goes toe-to-toe with a 2010 Lingenfelter Trans Am to see whether the old man or the modern re-imagining takes the crown.
Being from the Lingenfelter collection, both cars are absolutely immaculate. The '68 packs a Pontiac 350-cubic-inch (5.7-liter) V8 with a claimed 320 horsepower and some classic, muscular style with a hood-mounted tach. Plus, it's painted in an understated shade of green that you don't usually see.
In the other corner is Lingenfelter's pumped-up take on the classic shape based on the modern Camaro, and this is just one of six concept versions ever made. It wears an eye-catching, vintage-inspired livery of blue with a white stripe package. Under its shaker hood is a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 with a reported 655 hp and 610 pound-feet of torque.
1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction
Mon, 01 Aug 2011For the 1939 World's Fair, Pontiac built a Deluxe Six bodied in Plexiglass. Part of the Previews of Progress pavilion in which General Motors' Futurama showed off what was to come in the world of autos, the 'invisible' Pontiac is credited as the first transparent car in America. And there were no shortcuts taken with its body: the Plexiglass form was fabricated by the company that brought the material to market in 1933, Rohm & Haas.
The see-through sedan was sold at RM Auctions' St. John's auction in Michigan on July 30, fetching $308,000. Not bad appreciation for a domestic oddity that cost $25,000 to build when new. You can check out the high-res gallery of its innards, including copper and chrome metalwork and white moldings and wheels, and get the exhaustive details on it after the jump.
