This should be an interesting
discussion - but hard to draw any conclusions without knowing more
about condition of both cars.
If both in the same condition, I think the GTO wins as to value -
more GM $ interest and more Intermediate $ interest and frankly
the 63-64 Letter Series were not the most sought after of the 300
Letter Series.
If the 67 GTO is complete rust free and needs engine work and
interior, probably not a good trade for the GTO guy. If its a
rustbucket or missing parts, probably not a good deal for the K
guy.
As to the K, same argument - but first make sure its a K not just
a Silver Edition/Series. I thought the Silver Edition was a summer
promotion applied to the non-letter series - but hopefully someone
more familiar with 64s will chime in. Repainted white is a turn
off to me on an original silver car. What else is not original /
correct?
If the K is sound mechanically and runs while the GTO is not /
does not, then it might be more interesting for the GTO guy, but
still need to know more about each car to judge.

Hello folks in 300 land. I was at a
show this weekend and ran into a guy who told me he
has a 67 GTO that doesn’t run and needs a
restoration. He told me he knows somebody that
wants to trade even-up his 64 300 K ‘silver edition’
for his 67 GTO. He told me he drove the 300, so it
does run. But he said somebody repainted it white.
I told him right away that I didn’t know much of the
64 K, (except that it was a letter car which defines
cool right away) and never heard of a ‘silver
edition’. I checked a 300 book I have and it
mentioned a ‘silver series’. Are these the same?
What do you guys think? Would he be
better off trading his GTO for the K? I guessed he
would be, but then I would probably trade a GTO for
a simple K car, but that’s just me.
MOPAR or no car
thanks

Day 2 - great cruising - cool, foggy, drizzly
morning in OK. Sun finally appeared this
afternoon; warmed up to 90; John's top came
down. Amarillo to Alamagordo in the morning.

Had an eventful day today. Made it to
Effingham as my generator died. Stopped by
Spanky's, pulled it and took it his local
rebuilder, reinstalled it and back on the
road. While waiting for the rebuild,
Spanky took us to a local Mopar muscle
restorer buddy of his - great cache of
mid- to late-60s iron. In mid-Missouri
tonight with John Begian. Also met up with
Michael and Linda Burke this morning.
Targeting Amarillo tomorrow.
