----I bet there's a problem hiding under that steering wheel wrap. It would look better with the optional wheel anyway. Great GTO, especially with the Rally 1's on it......Bill S

Bill... I would expect it to be in excellent shape as is the rest of the interior. I would love to remove that cover and detail the entire wheel!! I do agree, the custom sports wheel is far more attractive.

When closing the hood of a ‘68 and ‘69, never ever pull it straight down.

Keep hood hinges lubricated and “push” the hood towards the windshield.
Works every time and does not bend / buckle the hood.

Trust me, I’ve seen many bent hoods on these years.

Beautiful ‘68 HO.

I'm not sure what those dopey little reflectors are on the headlight doors, hopefully just adhesive backed add on. The steering wheel wrap could just be to address the same thing I hated on my 68, the stock wheel is so skinny it's almost uncomfortable to use. Based on the condition of the rest of the interior (if original), especially the dash chrome, I'm guessing it's ok underneath.

Nice car. That dealership must have Armor All fed through a paint gun.

I did this once in the 80s.
