i have a 68 charger 318 that still needs a little work, and i got offered a trade for a 67 GTO 400 rebuilt with rebuilt turbo trans, you guys think its a good deal? i mean i know there is nothin like a charger, but i could sell the GTO and buy a better charger.

I never liked the '66/'67 GTOs. I thought they had an ass-ugly front end. It's your car, your money, your choice.

Well, sorry everytime I try to buy and car to get my way UP, it never works out.  If you have the Charger I would keep it.  Just the way I see it.

Is the goat rust free compared to your Charger?

If it is a GTO and in equal or better shape then it would be a fair trade. A GTO for a R/T I'm not to sure about?  :Twocents:

Dude, 66/67 GTO are awesome looking cars! :slap:

Right on Pat!   67 GTO's were at one time considered the ultimate best example of a true Muscle car.  I think it's a fair trade considering condition of each.  The real answer lies with book value.  What is a 68 charger/67 Goat worth? Consider condition and do the math.  Funny how the 67 has a kinda fastback roof line like the Charger.
This car was sold many years ago to somebody in Wisconsin. I now am retired and living in Florida.

+1!!!!!! I never liked stacked headlights on any car. Keep the Charger, unless you're sure you can make easy $.

I prefer Charger body style but its your decision. If you're sure you can get your money out of it and make a profit (which you're trading it for) Id go for it.

You kinda answered you're own question in the first post. If the GTO is worth more, trade, sell it, get better Charger. Problem solved and you still end up with a Charger...

   You sure it is a REAL GTO? That matters quit a bit as a Lemans for a 68 Charger isn't a very good deal if they are in the same condition.

68 chargers are definetely better looking than 67 GTO's. 65's look pretty nice though, a little more boxy. Make sure that its still worth what you think it is.

If one is WAY rustier than the other, take the more solid one.

If they're relatively similar conditions, then I'd keep whichever of the two cars you'd want if money was no object.
