THIS IS A PRIVATELY OWNED 1968 DODGE CHARGER. IT COMES WITH A 440 V8 ENGINE WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WITH HURST SHIFTER. THE ENGINE WAS BUILT IN 2018 BY JOHN WOOTEN AUTOMOTIVE AND TUNED BY FRANK TEAGUE RACING HICKORY NC. ILL START BY SAYING IF YOU DO NOT LIKE ATTENTION, THIS CHARGER IS PROBABLY NOT FOR YOU. IT TURNS HEADS, GETS PICTURED AND HAS PEOPLE TALKING TO YOU EVERYWHERE IT GOES AND TURNS HEADS EVERYWHERE AS WELL. THE ENGINE RUMBLES AND SOUNDS GOOD WITH A MILD CAM. I WAS TOLD BY THE ENGINE BUILDER THAT IT HAD A LOT OF HIGH END ENGINE COMPONENTS WHEN IT WAS ORIGINAL BUILT. THE ENGINE IS STRONG AND SOUNDS GREAT. THE TRANSMISSION CHANGES SMOOTHLY AND RUNS FINE. THIS 1968 CHARGER ORIGINAL HAD A 318 V8 ENGINE BUT WAS UPGRADED YEARS AGO WITH A 440 V8. IT HAS DUAL POSITIVE TRACTION REAR END. THE ODOMETER DOES WORK AND SHOWS 90,565 MILES. I HAVE NO IDEA IF ITS CORRECT OR NOT.IF YOU GO TO ALMOST ANY CAR SHOW, YOU WILL SEE MULTIPLE MUSTANGS, MULTIPLE CAMERO'S AND MANY OTHER DUPLICATES OF OTHER VEHICLES. YOU WILL RARELY EVER SEE A 68 OR 69 DODGE CHARGER. DON'T BE FOOLED BY PRODUCTION NUMBERS, THE "CASH FOR CLUNKERS" AND TIME HAVE MADE THE 68 CHARGER A VERY RARE SPECIES.THE EXTERIOR IS BLACK IN COLOR AS PICTURED. I WOULD RATE THE PAINT AS GOOD CONDITION. I BELIEVE THE PAINT IS APPROX 20 YEARS OLD AND DOES SHOW IMPERFECTIONS AND WEAR SUCH AS SCRATCHES AND CHIPS. ITS HARD TO SEE IN THE PICTURES. THE PAINT IS NOT "SHOW WINNING QUALITY" BUT GOOD FOR DRIVER AND LOCAL CAR SHOW. ITS NOT PERFECT AND DOES HAVE SOME RUST IN DIFFERENT AREAS THAT DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE "ACTIVE" ITS PARKED IN GARAGE NOW AND NEVER SEES RAIN. IT HAS SOME RUST IN WHEEL WELLS AND DIFFERENT PLACES. IT HAS ALOT LESS RUST THAN MOST YOU WILL FIND IN UNRESTORED CONDITION. THE CHROME BUMPERS ARE IN NICE CONDITION AS PICTURED. THE TIRES ARE ALL 4 NEWER COOPER RADIAL TIRES AS PICTURED WITH EXCELLENT TREAD. IT HAS A COMPLETE SET OF CRAGER CHROME POLISHED WHEELS AS PICTURED IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE TRUNK AREA IS IN GOOD CONDITION SHOWING TYPICAL WEAR FOR THE YEAR AND UNRESTORED. THE FRONT END NEEDS TO BE REBUILT AS IT DOES SWAY SOME WHEN DRIVING. A FRONT END SUSPENSION MASTER REBUILD KIT IS INCLUDED TO BE INSTALLED BY THE NEW OWNER. LIKE ALMOST ANY OLDER VEHICLES, IT DOES LEAK SOME OIL AND FLUIDS. ITS NORMAL TO SEE AND ALMOST ANY OLDER VEHICLE LEAK FLUIDS.THE INTERIOR IS IN GOOD CONDITION AS PICTURED. IT HAS FRONT BUCKET SEATS WITH FOLDING CENTER ARMREST AND MATCHING BLACK VINYL BENCH SEAT IN REAR. THE CARPET IS BLACK AND IN GOOD CONDITION AS PICTURED. THE HEADLINER IS INSTALLED BUT COMING DOWN IN DIFFERENT AREAS ESPECIALLY TOWARD BACK WINDOW. THE WINDOWS ALL WORK FINE AND ROLL UP AND DOWN. AN AFTERMARKET AIR CONDITION WAS INSTALLED SEVERAL YEARS AGO. IT BLOWS HARD AND COLD AND WORKS FINE. THE DASH AND TRIM INCLUDE SOME ORIGINAL AND SOME ITEMS THAT HAVE BEEN CHANGED. THE TRIM AND DASH ARE NOT PERFECT AND IN GOOD CONDITION FOR 52 YEARS OLD. IT HAS A NEW PROFESSIONALLY INSTALLED KENWOOD EXCELON KDC-X303 STEREO WITH 2 SPEAKERS MOUNTED UNDER DASH AND 2 SPEAKERS MOUNTED IN REAR WINDOW AREA. THE STEREO SOUNDS GREAT. THE ORIGINAL DASH HAS AN AFTERMARKET DASH PAD INSTALLED. IT HAS AFTERMARKET GAUGE SET INSTALLED AS PICTURED. THE SPEEDOMETER DOES WORK, THE ODOMETER DOES WORK, GAS GAUGE WORKS, OPENING AND CLOSING HEADLIGHTS WORK, INTERIOR LIGHT WORKS, CLOCK DOES NOT WORK. ALL GAUGES ARE PICTURED. ITEMS LIKE RUBBER TRIM ARE EITHER ORIGINAL OR HAVE BEEN CHANGED. SOME OF THE RUBBER DOOR TRIM / WINDOW RUBBER TRIM WILL NEED CHANGED IF YOU DO A FULL RESTORATION.
