by As a result, it’s really not a big surprise the GTO has millions of fans not only in the States, where the muscle car trend was born but pretty much everywhere around the world too, though it goes without saying that getting your hands on such a model beyond the borders of America is much harder.
What we have here is a survivor of the model year 1969, so in theory, everything is supposed to be as original as it gets. But more importantly, it’s a barn find, according to the folks over at Delray Beach Motors, so the car has recently been pulled from storage in the condition you can see in these photos.
And speaking of its condition, a barnfind in such a good shape really isn’t that common. The GTO looks like it needs just a little TLC here and there, with the interior coming in a fairly solid condition.
The body looks like it does require a bunch of fixes, especially on the driver’s side, and while some parts might be missing, a visual inspection should help any potential buyer figure out just how much work this GTO needs to get back in the mint condition that makes it a genuine head-turner.
Unfortunately, the garage selling the car hasn’t provided too many details about this GTO, and while we know there’s a 400 V8 under the hood, we have no idea if it’s running or not. But given the car’s overall condition, it should at least turn over by hand, though we expect the car to be ready to become a daily driver with just a few touches here and there.
The price of the car seems to be a little bit too ambitious, as the bidding starts at $20,000, while the reserve is set to $26,500.
