Goldenrod Yellow 1968 GTO hardtop owned by John Roberts from Memphis, Tennessee. John had this to say, "I bought this car several years back from a guy here in town. It had been sitting in his backyard under a pine tree for ten years and had a tree fall on the roof once. I`ve been restoring it for the last 2 1/2 years as money permitted. It was ordered with a lot of options. The price new was $4316.00 and had the base 400/350 hp, 4-speed with air, and a tilt steering column as a few options. It was originally Mayfair Maize but I went back with a 69 color Goldenrod Yellow. I did all the work myself except for the paint." CLICK->

Carousel Red 1968 GTO hardtop owned by Tyson Mayer from Ontario, Canada. Tyson commented, "It has the 400HO engine with a M21 4
speed transmission. The original colour was Verdoro Green, but the guy who did the resto painted it the 1969 colour Tangerine Orange. It has the hidden headlights, and as I am still searching for Rally II wheels to replace the 1965 GTO Deluxe Sport hubcaps." This GTO backed up to a vintage Sunoco gas pump. You can see an old air machine on the garage wall as well. CLICK->
Tyson added Rally II wheels to his Carousel Red 1968 GTO hardtop. Tyson tells us more, "This is a photo of my 1968 GTO, cleaned and waxed, the day that it got a heart transplant (18May2004). I took out a hot 1974 Firebird engine and dropped in a reworked, rebuilt, hopped-up, monster, stump-pullin' 1971 GTO 400ci. I painstakingly cleaned and painted the engine bay and engine. I have all the original 1968 parts to make the engine to look stock 1968. I got the Rally II wheels in the winter and recently bolted them on too. My wife and I enjoy cruising to the many shows in our area. I will be taking the GOAT to the track to try out the new powerplant." PICTURE SET CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE ...
Here's a comment from a recent visitor...
Says Jeffrey N. Meyer (Jefflerna.@ucd.net) - "I'm out here in the middle of the Pacific on the Island of Guam. I'm a GTO/Pontiac fan! Ever since my Dad owned a Green '68 GTO when I was young. There are 2 GTO's on this Island of 150 thousand people, I've seen or heard of a black '69 convertible, and heard of a (story) of a '64 stashed away somewhere. So maybe if I get rich someday (hee,hee) or if I go back to the states. I'll certainly buy a '68 or a '69 GTO!"
