Vehicle Detail
On 4/16/67 Tom Whiting Jr., a Vietnam vet, used the entirety of his G.I. Bill to take delivery of his special order 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible, finished in Gulf Turquoise, with turquoise interior, Power steering, Power Top, Console, Hurst Dual Gate Shifter, Rally II Wheels, floor mats, ect. a pretty highly optioned GTO. Tom stored the car in his garage from April of 67 to April of 17, for 50 years exactly, Tom kept his car up, driving it sparingly over the span of 50 years, garnering less than 100,000 miles on the car. Tom never got into a car accident, never drove his car in the rain, snow, ect. The car sat under a cover the entirity of it's life. Unfortunately, Tom passed away in April of 2017 and the kids and grandkids couldn't decide who would get grandpa and Dads prized GTO, so for sale it went. The car is about as original as you can get. In jest, I put that it has numbers matching air in the tires. However, the car is surprisingly original, with mostly original paint, interior, and convertible top. I will go through each section of the car to give you a very accurate account of the current condition. Exterior: The car wears it's original paint, which is arrow straight, devoid of any major dents or dings, lacquer cracking, ect. This car by no means needs to be painted. The original bumpers look new, with no pitting, hazing, dents, or discoloration. The convertible top works great and the car still wears it's original top, which is still very serviceable. As far as rust goes, it is as rust free as any car could be for being 50 years old, from any part of the county. Interior: This is about the nicest 51 year old interior you could come across. The only defect of any kind I can mention is a split in one seat which can be easily repaired, or replaced with a reproduction for a very minimal expense. The car has the original carpet and floor mats in it, and is very nice. The wood and interior chrome is all very nice. All lights, signals, gauges, work as they should. The radio is about 15 years old and is AM/FM, with speakers installed in the kick panels. I have the original pieces to go with the car. Dash is NOT cut. I have the original AM radio, ect. Undercarriage, rust free, completely unrestored with most of the original inspection markings on the suspension components. Driveline. This is a ALL numbers matching car. Alternator, starter, radiator, heads, carb, and intake are all date coded correct and born with the car. The engine was resealed some time ago and just generally checked out, i.e., oil pump, rings, bearings, timing chain and gears etc, recently. The engine is nicely detailed. The TH-400 shifts great and kicks down just fine. The car does not squeak, rattle, shimmy, ect. The car runs and drives like a NEW GTO. The car comes with the original selling invoice, Protectoplate, service records, pictures of the car new, ect. This car is a true survivor in EVERY sense of the word and is COMPLETELY sorted out. Meaning, you can get in it, turn the key, and drive it anywhere. The car does NOT run hot. The car runs and drives great as is one of the finest , unrestored examples of a 67 GTO Convertible in the finest color combination available. I am a veteran Pontiac Judge and collector, with a wealth of knowledge on GTO's and this particular car. This car is for sale locally and auction can be ended at any time. Payment is due within 3 business days of auction end, no exceptions payment bank to bank wire transfer only. No cashiers checks, no scams. I can assist with shipping anywhere in the country. You can reach me anytime at 630 425 8567. Car is for sale on other forums and sites as well.
