It’s hard to find something to hate about the ’67 GTO, and despite its debatable condition, the model that we have here clearly shows that the muscle car hasn’t lost its cool factor even after all these years.
Unfortunately, this 1967 Pontiac GTO can’t return to the road without a full restoration, and that’s going to be pretty challenging because the engine and the center console are both missing.
According to the current owner, who is now trying to sell the GTO as part of an online auction, the car originally came with a 400ci (6.4-liter) engine, and only God knows where it is right now. But other than that, the Pontiac seems to be complete and comes with a clean title.
For model year 1967, the 400 was offered in three different configurations, namely economy, standard, and high output. Needless to say, the high output was the one that everybody loved, as it developed the biggest amount of power for the 1967 series: 360 horsepower at 5,100 rpm and 438 lb-ft (594 Nm) of torque at 3,600 rpm.
If you’re checking out this GTO with a restoration in mind, you should also know that the frame itself also needs some repairs, and the owner themselves claims that a full replacement might actually be required.
The good news is that there’s a chance this GTO ends up selling at a fairly low price. The car is currently auctioned off on eBay, and the highest bid at the time of writing is $3,600. Sure, that could increase in the remaining 6 days until the auction comes to an end, especially given that 25 bidders are already fighting for the car, but don’t expect the price of this GTO to skyrocket just yet.
If you want to check it out in person, the car is parked in Peru, Indiana, and you’ll obviously need to take care of transportation since the engine is long gone.
