1968 Pontiac GTO - 242 Code WT Code 400 CI Ram Air III Spec Engine 4 Speed- M21 Carousel Orange 12 Bolt Rear End Air Conditioning Power Brakes CONSIGNMENT SALE * ROTISSERIE RESTORATION* Vin# 242378Z109188 Paint Code: QQ- Originally Verdero Green Interior Code: 223 Standard Black ENGINE Casting: WT Code 400ci Evolve Motors is pleased to present this fully restored 1968 Pontiac GTO We are selling this fully restored GTO on Consignment for one of our clients. No dealer taxes or fees paid. This is a private party transaction. Exterior: This car had a complete rotisserie restoration completed roughly 4 years ago. It has since found itself a home in a collection of American muscle cars here in the midwest. Originally a Verdero Green car the resto shop elected to give it a little Judge flare by painting it Carousel Red. The body is dry and free from any major repair. The panel fitment and gaps are true and look great. The doors close as crisply as you could ever hope. The paint work is fantastic and the surfaces are nice and smooth, free from orange peel and overspray. We only note 1-2 very very small nicks in the paint. The color matches are perfect so we know it was sprayed complete which is a major plus. The chrome rear bumper looks new. The Grille appears original and shows the perfect amount of aging. The brightwork, trim, and lights all show in excellent condition. The glass is nice throughout although we note some very light scratches in the rear glass. It is acceptable since it appears to be the original piece. The emblems, bezels, and hardware all show in top condition. The rally wheels and their beauty rings all shows nicely, wrapped in raised letter BFGs. Overall this Carousel Red GTO is a serious head turner. We much prefer the respray color over the original green. All in the the exterior is an “A”. Interior: The interior is largely original and shows very nicely. The seats are tear-free and clean, the carpets look new. The dash is in excellent shape as is the console and headliner. The dash has some touch up spots on it but overall looks consistent and nice. There is a newer stereo in the car. Non-smoker in great condition. Overall the interior is a solid “B+” Under the Hood / Underbody: This GTO has a NOM WT Code 400 CI motor in it. It was built to Ram AIr III Specs and it runs awesome. M21 4 Speed gearbox connected to a 12 bolt 3.55 rear end. Factory Air is complete and functioning properly. There are a couple dress up parts here and there but for the most part the car looks pretty straightforward under the hood. Power steering and power brakes both show nicely. The engine bay looks great overall. As you can see from our pics, the underside of this car looks amazing. This car is consistent from top to bottom. It makes outstanding power and pulls hard through the gears. It is nice and quiet on the road and screams when you plant your foot. Braking is smooth and straight. All in all this is a very well sorted car, mechanically. It will make a fantastic addition to any collection!
