If you're looking for an immaculate 1968 Dodge Charger R/T, but don't want to pay the premium price for a numbers matching all original R/T, then this is the car for you. This car is truly beautiful and mechanically exceptional. I would love to hang onto it, but time for someone else to enjoy it. I have been the proud owner since July of 2001. The previous owner had put a lot of time & hard work into this car. Upon completion in 99 the car was stored and driven from time to time on the weekends and to regional car shows. When I purchased the car in 2001 the odometer read 32,349 not actual, original mileage is unknown the Car now has roughly 34,400 miles on the odometer now. I estimate that the car has accumulated around 5000 miles since completion. This car is sold “AS IS” and is void of warranty. A $1000 deposit must be made within 24 hours of winning this bid. The remaining payment is due within 7 days after auction close. A cashier’s check or a money order is an acceptable form of payment. I will also accept paymentthrough Paypal.
