1967 Plymouth GTX Is a Head-Turning Survivor With a Big-Block Surprise Inside

You had to be fast if you wanted a GTX in 1967. Plymouth produced only 13,690 units, with the convertible accounting for just 680 cars.

With 12,010 units, the coupe was the more popular and affordable option, and you could have it for $3,178. The convertible started at $3,418.

The Super Commando 440 was the standard engine on the 1967 GTX, and at 375 horsepower, it was a powerful option that most people truly enjoyed. However, customers looking for additional power could pay an extra $546 to get the 426 Hemi.

The GTX that you see here rolled off the assembly lines with a 440 big-block unit under the hood, and as anyone can quickly figure out with a few clicks on the photo gallery, everything is still in working condition today.

Old cars still looking good and working correctly are pretty common these days, but what sets this GTX apart from the crowd is how original it continues to be after all these days. This GTX is a survivor, so it hasn’t been molested, restored, altered, modified, you name it, in any way since it waved goodbye to the assembly plant.

The car is in immaculate condition, eBay seller esgkag promises, and the provided photos confirm these claims. The paint is top-notch, and the interior looks mesmerizing, considering the vehicle’s age. However, the seller admits the GTX is 99% rust-free, so the remaining 1% is something you’ll have to take care of after the purchase if you’re interested in a perfect-10.

The big-block engine under the hood works perfectly – this is a genuine survivor, so the engine has never been rebuilt. It’s paired with a 727 automatic transmission, which also works perfectly.

The odometer indicates close to 67,000 miles (about 107,000 km), and they are all original.

A 1967 Plymouth GTX is rare, especially when the car is still unmolested and flexing a show-winner condition. This model also sells with the original build sheet and other documents, so whoever buys it will own a small piece of automotive history.

Unsurprisingly, buying this GTX will require a massive financial effort, as a car this rare can’t sell cheaply. The seller listed the vehicle for auction on eBay, and despite the digital fight starting at $40,000, they also enabled a reserve. As a result, this is only the starting price for the auction, but buyers will have to send higher offers to secure the GTX.

Anyone who wants to get their hands on the car without a fight must pay $55,000 to trigger the Buy It Now option. The owner stores the vehicle in Erieville, New York, but reach out to them to discuss all details before an in-person inspection. The auction ends in a little over two days.
