1968 Pontiac GTO Green Black Vinyl Top Why This Car Is Special Pontiaca* tm s premier muscle car, The GTO was redesigned for 1968, with a unique feature that was the body-color Endura front bumper. It was designed to absorb impact without permanent deformation at low speeds. Pontiac touted this feature heavily in advertising, showing hammering at the bumper to no discernible effect. We have a true 242 VIN Code 1968 GTO here at Skyway Classics. It has a YS 400 cubic inch 350 horse engine, has PHS documents to show that the car was ordered with the 400 engine, 4-speed transmission, retractable headlight covers, hood-mounted tachometer, console, power steering, ride and handling package, and Safe-T-Track rear axle. The GTO has received a frame-off, rotisserie restoration and has been professionally restored back to the original 'Q' Code Verdaro Green paint.

Exterior The GTO is the father of the muscle car, and nothing showcases a muscle car better than a bold paint job like the restored original 'Q' Code Verdaro Green paint. It has the Endura front bumper (exclusive to real-deal GTOs in '68), Hide-Away Headlights, Hood Tac, Dual Mirrors, black vinyl top, and rides on factory Rally wheels and raised white letter BF Goodrich tires with great sounds coming out the dual chrome tips.

The concealed headlights were a popular option. It has the signature dual hood scoops on either side of a prominent hood bulge extending rearward from the protruding nose.
