The 1967 Pontiac GTO didn't receive many significant changes, as The General focused mostly on improving the big models rather than on the goat.
This doesn't mean the GTO didn't receive any love. It did, but aside from the redesigned taillights, most changes happened under the hood, where the famous 400ci engines finally launched.

Customers could choose from a lineup of four engines. The first engine was fitted with a two-barrel carburetor and could only be ordered with an automatic transmission, producing 255 horsepower. The top configurations were labeled as High Output and developed 360 horsepower.

The 1967 GTO in these photos still has the original 400ci block, but the owner explains that the heads and the intake have already been removed. The transmission is still in the car, but that's all the information on a GTO that seems to have been forgotten in the bush.

The car landed on Craigslist without many specifics, as the seller decided to let the photos speak for themselves. Unfortunately, the images aren't as detailed as a GTO guy would expect, but the photos included in the Craigslist post could easily make many people walk away. The reason is not difficult to decipher.

This GTO looks like it's been sitting outside for a long time, and while the body still seems straight, you'll probably need a thorough visual inspection to determine its actual condition. However, the biggest concern is the rust that has probably invaded the undersides, so whoever wants this car must first remove it from the bush and put it on a lift to inspect the undercarriage.

The owner says on Craigslist that the car sells with a bill of sale to their father.

A Pontiac GTO is typically a very desirable project, but considering the lack of information, you'll have to contact the owner for answers to the most important questions. For example, I wish we had more detailed photos of the car's body, engine bay, and interior, as it's the easiest way to determine its condition more accurately.

Then, the owner should detail if the car is still original and what parts are missing. They claim they need more feedback before listing the car for sale in early December, so if you're interested in this GTO and need more information, you have enough time to contact them and discuss all these details.

It's unclear how much the GTO is worth, but the owner listed a $10K price tag, claiming it is just "a suggestion." The final price is unknown, so it'll be interesting to find out more information about this GTO and see how expensive it'll end up becoming, especially once it leaves the bush and we can get a clear look at everything.
