GTO #'s Matching 400 Factory Meridian Turquoise - Built Drivetrain 600hp EFI

This 1968 Pontiac GTO Resto-Mod is a striking example of classic muscle car styling combined with modern performance upgrades, offering the best of both worlds for enthusiasts who want power, comfort, and timeless appeal. Built from a true factory 242 GTO, this car retains its original identity but has been elevated to a performance level that far surpasses its stock configuration.

At its heart is the rebuilt original 400 V8, enhanced with performance upgrades to produce a staggering 600 horsepower while still maintaining a stock-style appearance. The engine is fed by a Sniper EFI fuel injection system for reliability and drivability, paired with Doug's headers, an MSD ignition system, and a 3-inch Ryan stainless steel exhaust system. Cooling is managed by a Be Cool aluminum radiator with dual fans, ensuring temperatures stay controlled even under spirited driving. The power is sent through a Turbo 400 automatic transmission with a 2800 stall converter, shifted by the iconic His & Hers Hurst shifter, and delivered to the pavement via a 12-bolt posi rear with 3.73 gears.

Handling and drivability have also been modernized, thanks to a tubular Hotchkis front end, upgraded AGE power steering box, and four-wheel power disc brakes, including a Wilwood setup at the rear. This combination ensures the GTO is not only fast in a straight line but also planted, responsive, and confident under braking.

The body was stripped to bare metal and refinished in its original factory Meridian Turquoise, highlighted by a working Ram Air hood and a fiberglass nose for improved fitment. Electric hideaway headlights add a touch of rarity and functionality. The exterior presentation is both factory-accurate and subtly upgraded to make this car a true head-turner.

Inside, a custom white interior is paired with a white vinyl top, creating an elegant contrast to the exterior color. The cabin is enhanced with power windows, a tilt steering wheel, and a wood grain and billet steering wheel. While the factory radio is disconnected, a hidden Pioneer AM/FM/CD player is installed in the glove box with discreet kick panel speakers, delivering modern sound without disrupting the stock appearance.

This GTO rides on 15-inch Rallye PMD wheels wrapped in performance tires, completing the muscle car stance. Every detail has been carefully thought out, from the powder-coated subframe to the functional upgrades that ensure this car is just as enjoyable to drive as it is to admire.

This 1968 Pontiac GTO Resto-Mod is a true eye catcher that blends originality with modern performance in an unforgettable package. With 600hp under the hood, cold A/C, upgraded suspension and braking, and a stunning presentation, this GTO is as FAST as it is fun—a car that's not only a showpiece but also a genuine blast to drive.
