This Pontiac GTO got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1968 Pontiac GTO hardtop coupe was originally delivered to Seifert Pontiac of Denver, Colorado and was acquired by the current owner in 2011. It is finished in Aleutian Blue over a blue interior and is powered by a replacement 455ci V8 mated to a four-speed manual transmission. Additional equipment includes power steering, chrome bumpers, dual hood scoops, 15” Rally II wheels, a cup holder, a Hurst shifter, a push-button AM radio, and an 8-track player. This GTO is now offered by the seller on behalf of the current owner with a window sticker, factory literature, partial service records, the removed 400ci V8, PHS documentation, and Alabama registration.

The car was finished from the factory in Aleutian Blue and reportedly received a repaint in 2005. Exterior features include quad headlamps, chrome bumpers, a driver-side rear-view mirror, dual hood scoops, Soft-Ray tinted glass, a dual exhaust system, and GTO graphics on the rear quarter panels. A paint blister is evident on the left-front fender.

The cabin houses front bucket seats and a rear bench trimmed in blue vinyl upholstery along with matching door panels and lighter blue carpeting. The center console was re-trimmed and modified with a cupholder during current ownership, and amenities include a Hurst shifter, a push-button AM radio, and an 8-track player. The headliner was reportedly replaced in 2003.

The replacement 455ci V8 was reportedly installed approximately 15 years ago and sends power to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission. An oil change and tune-up are said to have been performed during the summer of 2022.

The removed 400ci V8 accompanies the vehicle, though it is said to be in need of a rebuild.

The car does not have a title, as it is registered in a state that does not issue titles for a vehicle of its age. It is being sold on its registration.
