It's a pretty car alright. Big question is if it's a factory RA car or not. Even if it's not, looks like a nicely done addition.

Seller sez...."car is 100% correct".....with the wrong shifter. And what is the black "tank" on the driver side inner fender?

The dash looks like a cap to me as well. And what's up with the scoop fit on the hood?

Noticed that scoop and the dash as well. Like I said, whether it's an actual RA car will make a lot of difference in the value and how many little warts can be overlooked. That's probably obvious to all though. The fact that the seller never mentions the RA feature makes it doubtful. Just out of curiosity, I sent the seller a question regarding it.
That being said, it's a no reserve auction and has the RA stuff present. As of now, just on face value the price isn't bad in my opinion.

Running the numbers on the Volo car first. If I cant buy it right, will focus on the Blue 69 and try to buy it right. If all else fails ill just wait, or buy a 74 401 Matador coupe that some guy in Kansas wants 9 grand for. Now thats scary!

Got a response from the seller on the blue '69 in regard to the RA status.
Quote- "I think that may have been added". That tells me that it was added. Still could be a decent driver with the RA addition and for the price it's sitting at right now.

They are both nice looking. Personally I would inspect both cars or find someone you trust to look at them if you can't. Both seem to have things wrong, like the shifter in the 69,PWR window switches and passenger side mirror on the 68. Both have little cosmetic issues which just let's you be able to have fun working on it. It really depends what you are buying the car for. If it is an investment I would tend to go for the 68 and see if you can't get it for the mid to high 20's. If it is just a driver I would go with the 69. I like the colors of the 68, I think they make the car stand out. See if there is one of the members that lives close to the cars and see if they would look at it for you. If you find one in TN don't hesitate to shoot me a PM and I would be glad to look at it for you. Good luck!!

I agree. Both are very nice looking cars. Personal inspection is the key when spending that type of money. At the very least, a real in depth conversation and tons of pics from the seller. The gold with tuxedo interior is striking on the '68.

There is a real nice 68 April Gold GTO in this months HPP. I like the Volvo one better, I think the parchment interior looks better that the black. Both are nice though.
