Marking the end of the original generation of Pontiac GTO came about in 1967, with only a few styling changes to further enhance the exterior. They included a wire mesh front grill, wider rocker sill moldings with GTO emblem moved from the fender to the forward portion, and redesigned rear tail lamps. This final year Goat also features a slightly longer body and wider wheel track for added stability, along with new Federally mandated safety features like padded dash, new dash knobs, and energy-absorbing steering wheel & column. The engine size grew for the first time to an even 400ci, available in three horsepower packages.
This well-survived 1967 Pontiac GTO Convertible comes finished in Cameo Ivory over code correct 224- Parchment interior with matching Ivory White top. Optioned with its original, numbers matching WS-code 400ci High Output V8 engine, Hurst-shifted 4-speed wide-ratio transmission with center console, power folding convertible top, Rally instrumentation with in-dash tachometer, 14” Rally II wheels wrapped in BF Goodrich Silvertown Radial Redline tires measuring 225/70R14, AM push-button radio, original Custom Sports steering wheel, 3.55 Safe-T-Track rear axle ratio, and added power-assisted brakes & steering for easier maneuvering.
This GTO Convertible was built in Pontiac, MI and sold from a dealership based in the Grand Rapids area when new. It was last located in St. Clair Shores, MI near Detroit in June 2011 showing 39,840 miles on the odometer. Some evidence we have is a Michigan title showing 'actual mileage'. This fact, and the overall condition of the car itself did support such a claim, but it will be sold as mileage exempt. Having seen only an exterior cosmetic restoration about 35 years ago that included a complete repaint to the current color of Cameo White (originally very rare code M- Plum Mist) along with new interior carpeting, the balance of the car remained wonderfully original. This included the original seat upholstery, dash pad, door panels, seatbelts, instrumentation, exterior trim and bright work, etc.
The paint finish continues to hold much gloss but has begun to show signs of aging. It was parked for many years, so in June 2013 new tires were installed, the heater core replaced with new hoses & clamps, transmission removed for the flywheel to be resurfaced and receive a new clutch assembly & throw-out bearing. To improve overall driver enjoyment, the power steering assembly & pump were added along with a new master brake cylinder & booster system and a full brake adjustment. It would sell on to the next owner in February 2014 adding it to a large collection in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada for the next 10 years.
Recently, this GTO returned to St. Louis in April 2024 and received the following attention to ensure it's ready for the next owner to drive and enjoy immediately. A new white convertible top was fitted along with new window weather stripping, a new stainless steel gas tank installed with sending unit, all new Waldrons correct HO exhaust system, new rocker panel molding kit, new spark plugs/distributor cap/rotor/wires installed, new air filter, fresh engine oil/filter, all new front & rear brake shoes with hardware, new rear drums, new front bearing and wheel seals, and fresh wiper blades. Inside, the car received a new center console top plate and rear box bezel, and door sill plates.
It will come with complete PHS documentation and clear Missouri title. The current odometer reading shows only 40,386 miles. Rarely does one find the opportunity to own one of only 9,517 convertibles produced in 1967, especially an original High-Output version equipped with a 4-speed transmission! It continues to possess the correct '670' heads and complete date-code correct components throughout!
