1968 Plymouth GTX. 440 with the highly coveted 4-speed/Dana 60 combo . . .   repaint it. or get in and drive right now . . .
I bought this car as a project for our media company (Wheelbase Media). but we are no longer interested in this direction and instead have decided to sell. Overall. it's a fun driver that gets a shocking amount of attention. While you could disassemble the car to meticulously restore it (and it would be worth it). nbsp; the GTX is also appreciated for the fact that it's largely a survivor with plenty of patina.
We've only owned the GTX since fall of 2013. so I don't know everything there is to know about it. but I know Mopars pretty well and will describe as accurately as possible. The car has been driven 13 miles since we purchased it.
• Odometer shows 63. 00 miles and. logically. that's likely correct as there are few cars in this condition with 163. 00 miles showing. Unfortunately. I have no way to verify this.
• There is no build sheet with this car. • Best part is the strong 440. which has a great lope and makes no weird noises and appears to burn no oil. Judging by the fat exhaust. it runs rich. however. with a newer Edelbrock carb. • 4 speed shifts well. but the shifter play is noticeable. Clutch engages smoothly. shifter boot is torn. • Four-wheel drum brakes perform adequately for what they are: drum brakes. • Manual steering is OK. but the bias-ply 14-inch redlines on Magnum 500s makes for spooky driving and semi-automatic lane changes under power.
• Overall. the trim is good. but door handles are pitted (see pictures). the grille has the usual dents from small rocks and the rear finish panel is showing its age. Some of these items are readily available in the aftermarket. or you can just get in and drive.
• Not sure of the rear gearing of the Dana. but based on highway revs. I would expect 3:54:1. • There is no air conditioning. • I'm highly critical about this: the paint. is old and I would rate it at 5/10 with the usual scuffs. fading. dull spots. fish eyes. thinning and chips. This is actually a respray and not the original paint. • Body has some very light bubbling in the rear passenger-side quarters. which I have tried to show in the photos . The driver's side rear quarter has had some metal replaced and the lower extension is wrinkled (see photos). as though the driver backed over a something. Trunk floor has been replaced. Rest of the underside looks very original and very solid with factory undercoating. The driver's-side ledge where the trunk closes shows signs of a previous repair and is worth pointing. I've tried to make this last picture in the set so it's easy to find. • The seats have newer covers. the carpet is about 7/10 but the seatbelts are showing their age. Lights all work. speedo runs higher than it should. Please message me with reasonable questions and I'll attempt to answer. The car is in dry. heated storage and I cannot easily get under-body shots until it comes out of storage in April.  Shipping is the responsibility of the seller. and although the vehicle cannot be taken on the road in the middle of winter. visual inspections by you or a local designate are encouraged.
***TAX NOTE FOR CANADIAN RESIDENTS: Since you are buying the GTX from a Canadian company and not a private individual. you will be remitting 13 per cent HST to us and your invoice will reflect this. When you go to your DMV you won't have to pay it again . . . yes. we're sure.
