Description for Dodge Charger 1968

Started life as big block 68 charger. Has had a quality fiberglass Daytona conversion kit installed. Eric Nelson built the metal headlight assembly, metal wind supports, and stainless A pillar mouldings. A new Cheetah pump was installed, but not quite enough to operate headlights 100%, needs an additional pump or have to prop to keep them opened all the way. It has the original 383 rebuilt, 727 rebuilt, 8.75 rear with 3:73 gears rebuilt. Rims redone, new tires, new exhaust, new disc brakes in front, radiator recored, almost everything new for drivetrain. All interior has been redone: seats recovered, new carpet, new headliner, new dash pad, new lower door panels, ect. New Vintage air system installed, but still working out the bugs. As for the body: solid car, original metal with the exception of rear valance, rear frame rails professionally capped, some filler in the quarters, original vinyl top, original trunk floor, 70 fiberglass fenders, 70 steel hood. New rechromed rear bumper. The wing is signed by Richard Petty, and latch tray signed by Bruce Larson. Richard invited the previous owner down to the Richard Petty experience and was able to run this car on the track 139 mph. Previous owner had all the work done to this car and lots of love applied. It made inside a couple magazines, and has won some cars shows. As you can see from the pictures, a boat load of time, and money has been put into the car. Too much work done to list. All receipts go with the car, total in the $50's. I felt I had to have this car, but priorities have changed and I must let it go. Not interested in trades.
