Picked up a 69 Gto and a Trans am

[Gear_Jammer]

i have a g-body hard on for one with these..

Me too. Without question, the 3 all-time coolest factory shifters are the Lightning Rods, the His/Hers and the Pistol Grip.

[cool cat]

just had to google his/hers shifter. pretty sweet! kinda the precursor to the "red key" for the new boss 302 and such.

god bless.

More of a precursor to the manumatic transmissions that have come out the last few years in the wanna be sporty cars. C4 ZR1's, had the extra key in the console to allow for partial or full power.

in 69 the gto went to a slap shifter, drop it in first and you could reach over and slap the shifter to the side for second and again for third. they didn't work all that well and only got worse as they got older. mine didn't work all that great before i did my 5 spd swap

The easiest way to tell the difference between a '68 and a '69 is the side vent windows. They didn't offer those after '68. Plus, Whiteboy's has a His/Hers shifters, which is another thing they didn't offer after '68.

That looks to be Verdoro green. Do you know whether that's the original color?

My bad its a 68. original color 80k original miles

I'm trading the 77 t/a for a 68 gto complete 400/400 motor and trans and 12 bolt rear all out of another gto guy did a ls1 swap its ready to drop in and go.

I do have the correct long block out of this car but its been sitting in the weather

68 and 69 are similar cars but 68 had vent windows, ignition switch in the dash not the column, his and her shifter, a/c controls located is different place, brake lights in the bumper, dash gauges and dash are different, rear quarter panel reflector different, arrow head on enduro bumper, front fender emblems , front seat fold down release is different, plus several more little things that are not the same. I am not knocking your car in any way she is a very good looking car and looks like a very easy build, just trying to show some of the differences between them. check the vin a true gto has 242 in the vin code if that is not there beware of a cloned lemans. please post up with the build and have fun

Thanks for the info. 242 vin.

my parts car if anyone need anything

[69gto]

what shape is the drivers fender in? and are both doors gone? and again i am not trying to be an asshole but GTO's didn't have 12 bolts in them welcome to the world of BOP 10 bolt 8.2 where everything costs more

I need to check and make sure but the inner fender wells should be same as chevelle. What shape are ft inner fender wells?

My 73 Grand-Am had a ratchet (slap) shifter. Mine worked pretty good. I didn't have to worry about accidentally pushing it into neutral.

There's one on craigslist that had a fire behind the dash pad. It doesn't look too bad in the pics. It could be a nice driver when it's done.

Edit. It's gone now. It was only 4500.
