AutoHunter Spotlight: 1969 Pontiac GTO Convertible

Featured on AutoHunter, the online auction platform driven by ClassicCars.com, is this restored 1969 Pontiac GTO convertible. It is powered by a 400cid V8 backed by a three-speed automatic transmission. Features include power windows, console-shifted TH400 automatic, hidden headlights, and more. Finished in red with a power black convertible top over a gold vinyl interior, this Goat comes with a new convertible top boot and an Ontario (Canada) vehicle permit.

The restoration of this GTO was completed in 2021. Exterior features include non-functional scooped hood, optional hideaway headlights, dual sport mirrors, power-operated black convertible top, and power antenna.

A set of 16-inch replica Magnum 500 aluminum wheels with PMD center caps is wrapped in BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires.

The cabin is furnished with a gold vinyl interior featuring a pair of front buckets. Features include power windows, power steering, center console, left-hand remote mirror, and vintage-look AM/FM stereo with trunk-mounted Rockford Fosgate amplified and subwoofer.

The instrument panel consists of a 120-mph speedometer, fuel gauge, and warning lights for oil pressure, alternator, and water temperature. In addition, an aftermarket 8,000-mile tachometer has been elegantly inserted in the right-hand nacelle. A set of aftermarket gauges resides under the left-hand side underneath the dashboard. Odometer shows 89,690 miles.

The reportedly original 400cid V8 is topped by a single four-barrel carburetor. It is paired with a Turbo Hydra-Matic automatic transmission. Under-hood features include chrome valve covers, aluminum intake manifold, chrome air cleaner lid, and exhaust headers.

This Pontiac GTO was factory-equipped with an independent front suspension with solid rear-drive axle. Slowing to a crawl is handled by power brakes with discs up front. A dual exhaust system emits emissions underneath the rear bumper.
