Yes sir Greg, it is that same car. More than "kind of sunk in the ground" LOL. Been eyeing your 68. Sure looks good with the dog dish hubcaps!

Thanks Alan. I've been considering changing the wheels but I'll ride with them for now.
As for yours, I read all about it being that I'm a subscriber to the Barn Finds blog. The car looks much, much better than I expected. In fact, I don't think I'd restore it if it were mine. Congrats on a great score.

In looking through the pictures on this thread, I'll look at a car and think to myself, "That's the best looking GTO I've ever seen." Then I go to another page and think to myself, "That's the best looking GTO I've ever seen." Thanks for the pictures, guys.

Heres my 1968 Lemans HO, 3 speed manual, posi, handling package. Meridian turq with gold Ivy interior...odd combo. 125,000 miles, very original down to the hubcaps, paint, interior etc. Not sure if I want it painted, I kinda like the original "survivor" look.

Unusual indeed, I'd enjoy it just the way it is. I've only seen one other 3 speed 1968 Lemans.

The 68 LeMans Springmist over Nightshade green that I bought new in November of 67 had a 350 2bbl, 3-speed, white interior and console.

Yes, it is a K2 car. Turquoise interior. Here's a pic with some of the PY Forum gang at last year's BOP Show in Atlanta.

Original interior is completely original down to the carpet and all chrome and bright trim is untouched including rear bumper. Still has the factory softray rear window.
Again, I have a new favorite GTO!

I'm assuming this is a typo?

New to me, what do you know about it? Wonder how old the pic is. Noticed that it has IV decals.

Dunno Boys, I post some of them to share them as I find them...and sure enough if I said it was a RAIV I'd prolly receive an expert "correction" something like "they NEVER built one like that....!"

But it's all good IMO. And to continue the positive vibe and karma...here's a (IIRC) '68 w a "modern hood accessory." Enjoy!
