The Plymouth GTX of 1968:

For 1968, the GTX was moved upscale with the addition of the budget Plymouth Road Runner. Both with the Coronet shared the same redesigned Belvedere platform.

Plymouth was still using in 68, the nickname: "THE BOSS"

Luxury still was the high point of the GTX. You could order a full catalogue of option, like in 1967. Also the buyers had the choice of eight interior colors and eighteen exteriors shades. Power front disc brakes ware optional as tinted glass

Styling changes included a new hood design with different non-functional hood vents, a new grille, and revised taillights. In keeping with its upscale image.

The GTX was available as either a two-door hardtop or convertible, whereas the load Runner was only available as a pillared coupe.

The Road Runner came with a strength 383 cid V8 as standard, while the GTX came with the 440 V8 standard. Both had the mighty 426 Hemi as the only engine option.

The GTX came with the TorqueFlite automatic transmission as standard, with a four speed manual transmission as a no cost option.

The GTX came with the well-appointed Sport Satellite cabin featuring shiny details and fake wood grain. These differences were reflected in the base prices, serious racers loved the Hemi, but only 414 hardtops and 36 convertibles were ordered with the option.

The 440 were easier to tune, and churned out a surplus of low-end torque, which was more useable on the street, than the rev-happy Hemi.

But overall, the GTX was a true gentleman's super car.
