Selling my 1968 GTO Convertible. It's a real GTO, not a clone and has the PHS documentation to prove it. This car is not a show car, but a great driver.
The good: Originally a 400 H.O., 4 speed car. The heads on it now are 455 heads, but I haven't checked the numbers on the block to see if it is truly is a 455, or just the heads bolted to a 400. It runs and drives great. In the last year the Muncy M21 was rebuilt and new centerforce clutch installed, a 4 wheel power disc brake kit with drilled and slotted rotors was installed with front to rear stainless brake lines, new front wiring harness, rebuilt dash cluster ( rally gauges) and clock, new dash knobs and bezels, front suspension rebuilt, new power steering pump, all belts and hoses new, new plugs and wires, rear axle was rebuilt and is from a '67 chevelle that's a 12 bolt posi, tires and shocks are new (rear shocks are air). The top was replaced at some point and is in nice shape but could have been installed better as it has some wrinkles here and there. I have a new cylinder for the top in the box (one leaks some) and also a weather stripping kit for the top in the box. The hood tach works good.
The bad: It has some bubbles in the trunk lid, a few on the hood, some rust on the dash, some scale on top of the windshield frame under the vinyl trim, and couple holes in the floor. The trunk is in excellent shape and the rear quarters have had half skins installed at some point (no bondo). The paint shines up nice but not perfect by any means. The interior is in decent shape for a driver. Seats are the original white and not torn. The door panels have been replaced and are like new but are the "parchment" color so not the correct white. The vinyl wood grain overlay has fallen off the glove box door. It is supposed to have a console but it is missing, as is the door armrests. It could use the rear suspension bushings replaced. The windshield has a couple chips in it. No radio installed.
So in short your bidding on a mechanically great shape car that you can drive wherever (I drove it 200mi round trip last weekend, 70 mph on I95 without a hiccup), leave the body as is so you can drive it without worry that some shmuck is going to open their door into yours and chip your $10k paint job but still look good enough that it gets compliments everywhere. OR you are buying a great start to a full restoration. I'm sure I've missed something so any questions just ask. Thanks and good luck bidding.

Another Burt Reynolds Trans Am is up for auction
Wed, Jan 18 2017Fans of Smokey and the Bandit, your car has arrived. This Saturday, January 21, Barrett-Jackson will auction a 1977 Pontiac Trans Am clone that, while not originally in the movie, was owned and signed by the Bandit himself, Burt Reynolds. Not only that, but it packs many modifications that should make this Pontiac drive the way we all imagined it did. This is a Trans Am clone, not an original. The car was built by Nebraska company Restore A Muscle Car, and started life as a lowly Firebird Formula. However, the company brought it up to Trans Am grade and beyond. Under the hood is a fuel-injected 8.2-liter V8 from Butler Performance that Restore A Muscle Car says produces 600 horsepower. Coupled to the big V8 is a Tremec five-speed manual transmission. There's even Hurst line-lock on-board, so this Trans Am should be perfect for on-demand burnouts. The car also comes with QA1 coil-over suspension, so it should corner better than the original, too. The outside looks roughly like a stock Trans Am, but it now has 18-inch wheels styled after those from the movie car, and the shaker scoop says "8.2" on each side. View 5 Photos In 2014, a 1977 Trans Am owned by Reynolds sold for a whopping $450,000. That car wasn't an actual movie car either, and lacked the modifications of this one. However, it was used as a promotional car and was given to Reynolds, so it did have some history with the film. This upgraded car is listed in the Barrett-Jackson catalog as "no reserve," so it's going home with a new owner on Saturday, regardless of price. Related Video:
