The 1967 Pontiac GTO didn’t deviate all that much on the outside from the previous year’s model, but the car did undergo some mechanical renovations as the result of a few General Motors corporate policy changes, some of which called for a maximum engine displacement of 400 cubic-inches and losing multi-carb set-ups on most of the company’s vehicles.  Pontiac fought back by increasing the 389 to 400 CI, which was offered in 3 variants including an economy-oriented 2-Barrel version, but the others featured a single 4-Barrel such as this 1967 Pontiac GTO here on eBay.  If you’ve been searching for some great-looking sixties GM muscle, this one definitely deserves consideration if you’re anywhere near Apopka, Florida, as that’s where the car is located.  Bidding has gotten up to $36,100 so far, still not enough for the goat to change barnyards as the reserve has not yet been reached.

There’s sort of a happy story here followed by a sad one, with the good news being that the seller can trace the history of the GTO back to the mid-nineties when his good friend bought the car in Colorado and had it moved down to Florida.  What followed was a years-long total restoration, with lots of driving excitement and trophy-winning at car shows afterward, but life got in the way as it often does and the Pontiac got parked in the seller’s garage, with little use over the last decade.  Sadly, his friend passed away in 2011, but fortunately, the car is now looking for a new home.  The Montego Cream finish still presents beautifully, and even though the Pontiac hasn’t seen much driving as of late it does appear that great care was taken to ensure the car was stored in a safe and proper environment.

Back in the mid-nineties, more than 120,000 miles had already been accumulated on the odometer, so the numbers-matching 400 was treated to a complete overhaul and brought back to the factory specifications other than electronic ignition being added.  This one’s an automatic, but it’s got that very cool dual-gate shifter, sometimes referred to as the his and hers component.  Things under the hood are clean as a whistle, with another nice feature being that this is an A/C-equipped car.

Things inside look just about as good as they do outside, with a great color combo of a black carpet and dash with white seats and door trim.  Equally impressive is the trunk presentation, plus we get a couple of shots from underneath which not only appears solid but also scores high in the looks department.  A walk-around video is also included in which the seller mentions that this is the nicest GTO on the market right now, a pretty bold statement but at minimum, this one’s certainly in the upper echelon.  Any ballpark ideas where the reserve may be set here?
