I have seen many restorations and this ranks in the top percentage of cars relating to originality and quality restoration. This vehicle was built at St. Louis Assembly Plant. The GTX was to be an exceptional blend of style and performance. What differentiated it from a normal Belvedere was its special grille and rear fascia, shared with the Satellite, chrome "pit stop" fuel filler cap and optional racing stripes. For the performance aspect of the vehicle, a heavy duty suspension system was made standard. Standard also was Plymouth's 440 cu in (7.2 L) V8 called the "Super Commando 440". The engine was rated at 375 hp . Buyers in 1967 could pay an extra $546 and replace the 440 with Chrysler's 426 cu in (7.0 L) Hemi. The 426 was nicknamed the "Elephant." The B platform or B-body was the name of Chrysler's midsize rear-wheel drive passenger car platform from 1962 through 1979. The 1967 B bodies continue to increase in value. The Hemi powered Dodge and Plymouth cars are increasingly becoming one of the most sought after US domestic built cars on earth. The Hemi B bodies have always commanded higher prices than any other like pony/muscle car by any other manufacturer. The rarity, collectability, combined with exceptional quality of the restoration makes this Plymouth GTX a solid A grade investment based on the following points: Known owner history Well documented Date correct engine Date correct 4 speed transmission with Inland shifter Color combination: Blue exterior and interior Original B body with an excellent foundation that is rust free The originality of: o Exterior sheet metal and paint o Chassis, frame and floor pans Vehicle Reference Information Comments Updated Report Date TBD in the future Report Date: 1/12/16 Original Physical Inspection Date: 12/28/15 Vehicle Year/Make/Model 1967 Plymouth GTX Hemi Original Selling Dealer Unknown at this time Original Vehicle Price Unknown at this time Delivery Date to the original owner Unknown at this time Mile showing that appears to be original 40,615.5 Estimated vehicle production 1 of ~45 hard top 4 speeds.
