Verdoro Green 1968 GTO hardtop, right side view. Normally, when selecting car photos, I cut out background elements such as houses. But I left this house in the photo, because it looks cool.CLICK-> 
1968 GTO project car owned by Brian Jones from Linden, New Jersey. Brian tells us, "I bought this car from a guy who worked down the street from my house about 5 months ago. I'm 17 and looking to fix it up. I don't want it completely stock but close. The engine has been completely rebuilt and is crank'in over 400hp. If you have any tips for me, please email me." No hood scoops. He's got a LeMans hood on his GTO. Those are 1969 GTO grilles. To be sure you've got a GTO you can check the VIN number for years 66-71. They all start with 242. Check out the VIN decoder in our Stats Explorer ™.CLICK->

1968 GTO project car, rear end view. It's got LeMans tail lights. This view reminds me of my first car, a 1968 LeMans. It was the same color, and had bumper dents in approximately the same places. I'm sure its not the same car though. Did you see the little "BRIAN" license plate on the car?CLICK->

Here's a close-up of the engine that's been rebuilt. Brian says it pumps out 400hp. This car has MSD ignition and a chrome alternator.CLICK-> 
 
Looks like Brian is going with that Punisher theme for his 1968 GTO. This is probably a new reproduction hood. Many of the originals get damaged through the years. They often will rust at the front edge due to water collecting under them at the front lip. I've seen them rust from the inside-out, leaving a hole clear through in the front lip. It is great that the reproduction industry has created a replacement for rusted original hoods.CLICK->
