Blue 1969 GTO hardtop owned by Gary from Maryland. Gary was reading the 'Text Topics' article on this website about the Royal Bobcat cars. He writes to ask some questions, "Great article. I have recently purchased a 68 GTO and am trying to trace the history as this car has all the makings of an Royal Bobcat. The history is somewhat hard to follow as the original owner who had the engine changed to a 429 as I am told 'went to Viet Nam' and did not come home. Just at that - being a vet this car is really special to me. The second owner I have located in California, however is unclear about what he remembers per his caretaker. Are there any VIN# records on GTOs that were Bobcatted?"CLICK-> 
Meridian Turquoise 1968 GTO hardtop owned by Matt Brown form Eden, North Carolina. Matt tells us more, "The car was purchased from its original owner. He bought it in my hometown at Tri City Pontiac. It was built Nov 15 1967 and delivered December 24th 1967. The original owners have seen the restoration. My Brother also has a 68 GTO."CLICK->

NEW POST Black Primer 1968 GTO hardtop owned by Curtis from Hollister, California. Curtis explains, I've had Heather, yes that's her name, since Jan 2002. When I got her she was about five different colors so I decided to rattle can her black for now. After my first deployment to Afghanistan, I put every penny I saved up under the hood in my first attempt at building an engine. Young and naive - I built something that wasn't practical at all and ended up cutting a hole in the original rust, bend, and crack free hood... Ouch! Now I have learned from my ways and I'm in the
brainstorming phase of throwing a Butler Performance aluminum 505ci EFI big boy with twin turbo's. We'll see how it all pans out."CLICK->

NEW POST Silver 1968 GTO hardtop owned by Mike Phelps. This GTO has the chrome fromt bumper, which was an option in 1968 over the color matched Endura bumper. Mike adds, "I bought this car in September, 2007. I have tinkered with it all winter. It has been a learning experience. Things I've done include rebuilding the Edelbrock carb, having the dash bezel refinished, converted from drum to 4-wheel power disc brakes and subsequently had to go to 15" wheels, new Hurst shifter, went with ram air exhaust manifolds (instead of headers), 2 1/2" exhaust all the way to the back, and other little odds & ends. The car was originally Verdoro Green and I may take it back to that color. I love driving this car. I had a 1966 GTO back in 1975 (3x2, 4 speed, 4.11 limited slip rear). That's the car I wish I still had."CLICK->
