Car Overview











Description
The Plymouth GTX earned its “gentleman’s muscle car” reputation from the moment it debuted in 1967. Where the Road Runner was deliberately stripped and budget-focused, the GTX offered Mopar’s most powerful engines wrapped in a more refined, better-appointed package. By 1970, the GTX had adopted bold new styling and one of the era’s most iconic performance features — the functional Air Grabber hood, which rose dramatically at wide-open throttle to channel fresh air directly to the engine. It remains one of the most visually striking and collectible B-body Mopars ever produced, combining show-car presence with genuine performance credentials.
This example has undergone a full ground-up, nut-and-bolt restoration and presents in its original B5 Bright Blue Metallic with black side and hood stripes. The body was stripped to bare metal, meticulously prepped, and refinished to a high standard with consistent panel gaps throughout. The functional Air Grabber hood remains fully operational, and the staggered Boyd Coddington wheels — 17×9 inches up front and 18×11 inches in the rear — wrapped in Nitto NT555 Extreme tires give the GTX a muscular, planted stance that backs up everything under the hood. Since completion the car has been kept in climate-controlled storage, presenting exceptionally well with just 7 miles on the restoration.
Under the hood sits a professionally built 472 cubic inch Hemi V8 featuring an Eagle crankshaft, Manley rods, JE pistons, and aluminum Indy cylinder heads fed by dual Holley four-barrel carburetors — rated at 770 horsepower. Long-tube coated headers and Flowmaster mufflers deliver the exhaust note to match. Power is transmitted through a correct A833 4-speed manual transmission to a Dana 60 rear axle with 4.10 Richmond gears, a limited-slip differential, and Strange axles. Aerospace Components four-wheel disc brakes and adjustable QA1 suspension with rear coilovers provide the modern control this level of power demands.
Inside, the GTX’s upscale character is preserved with white vinyl bucket seats, a woodgrain-trimmed center console, matching rear bench, and the standard Rally gauge cluster. Black carpeting with custom GTX floor mats and woodgrain dash accents maintain the period-correct atmosphere, while a discreetly installed Pioneer head unit with SiriusXM capability adds modern convenience without disturbing the classic presentation. A full restoration photo album and build receipts accompany the car, documenting a restomod that honors the GTX’s legacy while delivering performance well beyond anything that left the factory in 1970.
