1968 Pontiac GTO Muscle Car Why This Car Is Special This is a true 242 VIN Code 1968 GTO Convertible we have here at Skyway Classics, it has a YS 400 cubic inch 350 horse modified engine. It is a rare GTO because only 9,980 convertible GTO’s were produced in 1968 out of 87,684 total production. General Motors redesigned it’s a-body 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. Our GTO Convertible is loaded with options such as the Enduro Bumper, Hideaway headlights, Power steering, Wilwood disc brakes, Hurst His/Hers Dual Gate automatic shifter, Hood tachometer, custom polished mag wheels, and a black convertible top.

Interior Our GTO has a black later model GTO emblazoned twin front bucket seats with a black rear seat and door panels, interior that has all the right vintage details like the wood-like paneling on the dash, factory radio, factory and accessory gauges, three-spoke wood Pontiac steering wheel, air conditioning, Hurst shifter, center console, and black carpeting with blue GTO floor mats. Exterior The GTO is the father of the muscle car, and nothing showcases a muscle car better than a bold paint job like the blue GTO we have. It has the Endura front bumper (exclusive to real-deal GTOs in ’68), Hide-Away Headlights, Hood Tac, Dual Mirrors, and rides on custom chrome 5-spoke polished aftermarket mag wheels and black sidewall tires with great sounds coming out the dual chrome tips. Pontiac abandoned the familiar vertically stacked headlights in favor of a horizontal layout, but made hidden headlights available at extra cost which ours has. The concealed headlights were a popular option. The signature hood scoop was replaced by dual scoops on either side of a prominent hood bulge extending rearward from the protruding nose.
