PS - For reference (I love this car color combo):

Does it have original drivetrain? My 68 350 HO convertible 4 speed Safe-T-Trac Lemans (they only made 176 of them) is white, white top and white (pearl) interior. I'd love to have a red interior but I decided to keep it original as it has it's original drivetrain. If it didn't have that I'd change it. I'd think your car is very rare too. Neither car will bring GTO (or 400 Firebird) money (nor did it cost GTO or 400 Firebird money) but they stand out in a sea of regular 68 Leman's and Firebirds. Something to think about as far as keeping it original.
