Barn-Born Beast: 1968 Plymouth Hemi GTX Convertible Heads to Mecum

A barn-find 1968 Plymouth Hemi GTX Convertible—one of just 24 Hemi convertibles from 1968—was found in upstate New York after more than 50 years, retaining matching-numbers 426/425 hp Hemi V8 and TorqueFlite, with about 34k miles. It has undergone mechanical recommissioning (brake lines, fuel system, distributor, exhaust, radiator, etc.), a new top and interior, and will cross Mecum’s block later this month. The car exemplifies Plymouth’s ‘gentleman’s muscle car’ ethos and is among the era’s rarest production muscle cars.
