Default Re: Need help buying a '68 GTO

The 1968-69 4-4-2 is a bastard child compared with the 1970. Same thing with the GS. The 1968 SS396? I don't think so, although it doesn't have the COPO option like the 1969 does. Camaro? 1969 seems to be king, but I don't think the '68 is a bastard in comparison; if you did, then would you consider the '67 in the same manner? What about the '68 Nova SS? Well, they made a lot less of them than in 1969, so perhaps it's an unfair comparison.

The marketing in 1969 was more sophisticated than in 1968, but I think that has little bearing on determining bastard child status.

I still only believe the '68 Vette is the true bastard. :-)
