Stunning 1968 Pontiac GTO Convertible

1968 Pontiac GTO Description

A true head turner, you are looking at a stunning numbers matching 1968 GTO convertible with a slightly older frame-off restoration. A strong runner that starts up easily and can cruise at speed for hours on end with no overheating issues. The car has taken numerous road trips from Los Angeles to Vegas and all over California. Nothing more fun than going to the Las Vegas Bellagio and having the valets park your car in front with all the Bentleys and Ferraris.

Not a trailer queen, but lovingly cared for and garaged for decades. Will provide a full binder with 20 years worth of service documents, parts receipts, Pontiac Historical Society (PHS) documents, and pictures of the original restoration.
