Still dark outside, but I am ready to dig into my new project. 1967 GTX 440 4-speed car. Bright Blue with Black interior and Black top stripes. It is a console car too. Lots of parts and a good straight first time car. Needs lower quarters and some floor work, but it is all there.. WOOHOO!!!

Well, it's a console stick car...no wonder you can't sleep! Looks like a good place to start, for sure. I look forward to seeing more on this one!

Nice score there Mike!
Hope you will take plenty of pictures along the way to restoring this beauty. It was my uncle's 68 GTX 4 speed that gave me my first taste of "stick you to the seat" acceleration.

I never go over it.

Great car to fix up there. Don't see many of them with 4 speeds around.

Only one is, I've never seen an NOS one before.

Thanks all for confidence boost. I think payed "all-the-money" but it is what I want so I am not looking back.

Mike, I have just one as well. Maybe they are
opposite sides. The NOS one is the one with the
brown sanded primer.

I believe the part numbers are the same for both sides. Like BB heads.

The '67 GTX hood scoops are R and L. The outside edge of each scoop is a little taller so they lay flat on the hood. The bezels are different too so they all should have different part numbers.

I have a Blue '67 440 4 speed R/T. I love the '67 GTX's too, I've restored several of them and know them inside and out!

Can't wait to see your progress. Any questions along the way, shoot me a email!

Well, I know what it feels like to lose sleep over a car, I done that a dozen times or more. I have seen a blue 67 GTX restored and they look great in that color. Have fun and get that checkbook ready!

You clearly have fine taste in cars. Fall 1985 and too cool for school.

When I was in high school in the mid 70's, cruising in my Road Runner, one gal's dad had a blue R/T that was the family car.
