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. Features 1968 GTO YS 400 cubic inch 350 horse modified engine

　　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. Conclusion
