Ready to Cruise
The styling difference from the 1967 to the 1968 model was the addition of Federally-mandated side marker lights: for the front of the car, he turn signals were made larger and extended to wrap around the front edges of the car, nd on the rear, he Pontiac (V-shaped) Arrowhead logo was added to each side. The front door vent-windows were replaced with a single pane of glass. The 1969 model received a major facelift with a new front end design but unlike its big brother the GTO, t did not have the Endura bumper. The instrument panel and steering wheel were revised. The ignition switch was moved from the dashboard to the steering column with the introduction of GM's new locking ignition switch/steering wheel.The styling difference from the 1967 to the 1968 model was the addition of Federally-mandated side marker lights: for the front of the car, he turn signals were made larger and extended to wrap around the front edges of the car, nd on the rear, he Pontiac (V-shaped) Arrowhead logo was added to each side.
