Frame off restoration Pontiac GTO in special factory ordered purple plum mist

Imagine pulling up to the drive-in in what is likely the only surviving, numbers matching, 1967 Purple “Goat”. This award winning 67 GTO Hardtop Coupe was ordered from the factory with special metallic paint “Plum Mist” and factory air. Born in Pontiac, Michigan on October 31st, and delivered to Smith Motor Company in Laurens, South Carolina, the car was found abandoned in a Texas autobody shop, when it later underwent a complete frame off (1/16) rotisserie restoration in 2016. The car has its numbers matching Pontiac 400 4bbl with 335hp, three-speedTurbo-HydramaticTH-400, which was equipped with aHurst Performancedual-gate shifter, called a "his/hers" shifter, that permitted either automatic shifting in "drive" or manual selection through the gears. Everything works as it should and it is documented that the car has been driven less than 2600 miles since restoration. It has always been stored in a climate-controlled garage.

The car comes with restoration documentation as well as Pontiac Historical Society’s documentation of the special paint code and window sticker. It received the “Restored Auto” award at the 2021 Good Guys car show. All sheet metal is original other than the hood which was purchased after the original was damaged by the sand blasting process. The exhaust and headers were replaced during restoration and provides a great rumble from the stock 400.

Designed by John DeLorean, the Pontiac GTO is considered of the most desirable cars of the muscle car era. The 1967 is often considered the most desirable, featuring sleek design updates to the hood, grill and taillights. I am sad to see my baby go, but it is time to turn over the keys and let someone else enjoy this classic icon of American car history.
