The last of the old guard, this â™71 GTX is from the final year it stood alone as its own model. Compression ratios were still up, emissions equipment was sparse and the new look bodies were like spaceships compared to the cars built just the year before! Rare to find in fully restored condition and rarer still with two tagsâ™ worth of options this bright blue bomber is the perfect way to celebrate the end of the X!

Start underneath. Beautiful GB5 paint (thatâ™s a new shade for 1971 and not to be confused for the earlier color) covers the floors and frame rails. The fuel tank and lines, parking brake cables and more were correctly installed before the wheelwell undercoating was applied in assembly line correct fashion. Components front and rear were properly detailed and marked. The steering, suspension and brakes work exactly as they should. A new TTI exhaust system is in place from the manifolds to the cool chrome tips. The 8 °3/4 rear out back is rebuilt, detailed and features a 3.23 Sure Grip center section. There are some miles on the car since its completion so you can be confident itâ™s ready for whatever road you throw at it! Inside, youâ™re in for a comfortable ride. New Legendary bucket seats and door panels merge with restored original pieces. New carpet is on the floor, a new headliner is above and thereâ™s a clean dash pad up front. The center console is in excellent shape as are the gauges. This car was built to personal tastes rather than for the fender tag sticklers so youâ™re going to see a lot of cool options that wandered onto this car after it left St. Louis. Thereâ™s a tach in the cluster and an AM/FM radio in the dash. Clean seat belts, an excellent steering wheel and excellent dash trim complete a very nicely done cabin! Pop the hood and check out the 440 mill inside. A â™70 vintage piece itâ™s been completely gone through functionally and cosmetically. Correct parts run from one side to another with the right battery and cables, date coded spark plug wires, an original date coded voltage regulator, proper heater and radiator hoses and more. A 959 radiator is up front next to the reproduction washer fluid bottle and new receiver drier. The rebuilt compressor, lines and condenser are there to keep you coolâ'this A/C blows ice cold! Open the trunk and look around. The paint in here is easily as nice as the topside, and thereâ™s a proper jack, trunk mat and a brand new Polyglas tire on a new rim. Outside the carâ™s a stunner. Brilliant blue paint is accentuated by Plymouthâ™s best options. The factory (and very rare) rear window louvers look awesome in body color and join high profile options like the hood pins and performance hood (and fender!) treatment. A super rare elastomeric front bumper and matching painted rear unify the color scheme while the Go-Wing and 15â rallye wheels with G60x15 tires increase the sport factor. The GTX model was rolled into an option package on the Road Runner and the car lost its specific identity in 1972. With killer looks, a fender tag and a half, and attitude to spare, this X is everything youâ™d want in a dual purpose show car and grand tourer!
