For sale this STUNNING 1969 Plymouth GTX in what can only be described as the ONLY color combination this car should have EVER been offered.
This was the muscle car for the upscale driver in 1969. More luxurious and more well-appointed then its stripped down Roadrunner brother, this GTX was meant to hammer the pavement, but pretend you were an adult. The GTX rumbles under your seat and GROWLS as you lean into the throttle. It transports you back to 1969 as you comfortably pull up to that stop light grudge match and effortlessly prepare to embarrass that local guy in his brand new Chevelle. You are calmly confident because your car is a BEAST from the factory and with its 440 Super Commando and its 375hp.

This car has been ENTHUSIASTICALLY and PROFESSIONALLY maintained and restored!
Let's start on the engine and drivetrain:
-ENGINE
This engine was rebuilt when restored a few years ago and drives wonderful! Only 46,300 miles appear on the odometer and the entire car shows as if its 4,000 miles. We believe these are original miles without an odometer rollover. The GTX roars to life instantly even when cool outside. And I mean ROARS! The exhaust makes all the right noise: a nice rumble at idle, a mellow growl at cruise and an explosion of lions when you lean into it. The engine leaves no drips and burns no oil. Even in 90 degree temps in traffic it does not run hot at all! Cool as can be! It was an occasional weekend driver for the owner, so at very light throttle tip in there can be a very minor hesitation that appears to clean up nicely as you drive. All the power is there and the engine is beast! The factory tach works!!! I'll say again - working factory tach!!! Turn the key, watch the tach rise and hear this GTX come to life! Check out the factory marked radiator and heater hoses!!!!
-TRANSMISSION
The TorqueFlite 727 trans shifts wonderfully and crisp and downshifts on demand with no issues!! The 727 is a legendary transmission is lives up to its lure!
-REAR END
The Sure-Grip posi rear is in great shape, makes no noise and has no slack at all. Slip the car in gear and there is NO lurch as the pinion and gear take up the slack!
Lets move to the suspension and brakes:
-BRAKES
NEW front and rear brake shoes that feel wonderful. No pulling under braking and with the power brakes feel fantastic. The braking system is controlled, powerful and stable.
-SHOCKS
Great feeling OEM shocks. They are soft on bumps and tight in corners. The car handles wonderfully!
-STEERING
The steering is tight and has no excess play and drives fantastic!!! The power steering is a treat!
Let's continue to the exterior:
-PAINT
The paint is very nice! It is a 9++ out of 10 easily. Nearly every inch of this car is factory fresh with only incredibly minor flaws. Any flaws are so minor they are near impossible to even see in close up pictures, there is a 1/8" chip on the edge of the drivers door right on the very edge. It's near impossible to see. And there is a scratch about 1/4" long and not deep on the passenger quarter panel. Could almost not mention it just trying to be thorough!!! They are it. I don't see anything else and themselves are virtually imperceptible!! The car was also finished in option code V21 black performance hood paint which is factory new shape!
-TIRES
BRAND NEW Firestone Super Sport Wide Ovals, Redline tires. 95%+ tread! How great do the Redline look against the red body stripe just south of the body moulding???
-WHEELS
The Magnum 500 wheels are in great shape and near new condition!
-GLASS
Not to let a pebble defeat this car, the windshield has not a chip and the side glass is clear and smooth. The rear glass has a minor scratch but in fantastic shape.
-BODY
There is not a drop of rust on the body this Southern California car! No bubbles, no loose paint, no issues!!!!
-FRAME AND UNDERSIDE
The frame is solid, the floors are solid, the trunk is solid, the car is SOLID!!!! This was not a trailer queen! It was driven as a weekend cruiser and will show signs of some chipping of paint or light surface oxidation from those chips or on the leaf springs, bolts from tool use, etc. The expected minor signs of use from a non-trailer queen! The undercoating is in good shape - see the below pic!
Onto the cabin:
-SEATS
The premium red vinyl seats are fantastic!!! There is NO tears, NO seams coming apart. They are supportive with no sags. The vinyl is soft and buttery and the foam and the springs are supportive with no signs of fatigue. They are simply gorgeous.
-DOOR PANELS
The door panels look fantastic! All of the panels are free of dents or defects.
-HEADLINER
The headliner is in fantastic shape! No sags, tears or issues and looks brilliant in the stunning red!
-CARPET
Gorgeous carpet in the car. Incredible cleanliness and quality and look the part of a brand new car.
-WINDOWS
The window guides are fantastic and smooth. The seals are tight and the windows have no dead spots.
-SEAT BELTS
-The belts are in great shape with no frays or issues!
-RADIO
The AM radio turns on!
-AC/HEAT
The GTX was ordered with factory AC and is all present! The heater core has no leaks and all vacuum lines and canisters are in place. The heater/AC control has been a little finicky lately but all components in good shape!
-MIRRORS
Drivers mirror and rear view mirror both in great shape!!
-STEERING WHEEL
The plastic wheel is perfect. No cracks, no scratches, it feels as it would in your hands from the factory!
-TRUNK
The trunk mat is in perfect shape and the trunk floor is in perfect shape!! The spare Firestone Wide Oval is present as well as an unused jack still with its wrapping! The inner quarter panels are in fabulous condition!!
