1968 Plymouth Belvedere GTX

 

History

 

The Plymouth GTX was introduced as the Belvedere GTX in 1967 by the Plymouth division to be a "gentleman's" muscle car. In 1968. after one year of production. the GTX was given a completely new look. A new hourglass body replaced the more box-like body of 1967. The Road Runner was introduced by Plymouth as a performance version of the Belvedere.

 

There were major changes made in the design of all the Plymouth B-bodies. The Road Runner's base engine was the new 383 cu in (6. 3 L) "Super Commando" V8 (renamed the "Road Runner 383"). while the high performance 440 was still standard in the GTX. The TorqueFlite automatic transmission was standard on the GTX. with it being a US$206 option in the Road Runner. The GTX used the Sport Satellite trim and was offered in two models. the two-door convertible and the two-door hardtop. The Road Runner used the Belvedere trim. and had less insulation and comfort items (padding. vinyl roof. trim). which reduced weight. helped produce better track times. and kept it in the low price field.

In 1990. Car & Driver included the Plymouth GTX 440 in their “top ten muscle cars of all time” list. Enthusiasts who gave had the opportunity to experience the pavement shaking power the GTX produces would agree that this honor is well deserved. With approximately 50 miles driven since the full rotisserie restoration. this GTX is an excellent choice for a top muscle car!

 

Remote and owner's manual for radio. and the owner's manual for the car are included in the sale.
