1968 Dodge Charger Base Hardtop 2-Door 6.3L

Description for Dodge Charger 1968

Check out this awesome classic! Up for sale we have a 1968 Dodge Charger in beautiful Lime-Gold paint. This car has a 383 Magnum engine and an automatic transmission. The car has an aftermarket exhaust (which sounds good!) The car runs and drives very good with plenty of power. It is a very nice car and we have never had any issues with it. It is what we would consider very nice driver condition. The Lime-Gold paint is believed to be original as well as the car to be numbers matching but we have not confirmed either. It turns heads wherever you go so be prepared for thumbs up and lots of attention as we always got compliments at the car shows we've taken it to. We are liquidating a collection and will be listing several other classic cars so please feel free to check out our other auctions. If you have any other questions feel free to ask. Buyer is responsible for pick-up and we will help in any way possible.

Designer Richard Sias developed a double-diamond coke bottle profile with curves around the front fenders and rear quarter panels. Front and rear end sheet metal was designed by Harvey J. Winn. The rear end featured a "kick up" spoiler appearance. inspired by Group 7 racing vehicles. On the roof. a "flying buttress" was added to give the rear window area a look similar to that of the 1966-67 Pontiac GTO. The Charger retained its full-width hidden headlight grille. but a vacuum operated cover replaced the electric motor rotating headlights. The previous full-width taillights were replaced with dual circular units at the direction of Styling Vice President. Elwood P. Engel. Dual scallops were added to the doors and hood. Inside. the interior was completely new. A conventional rear seat replaced the bucket seats were gone. The console remained the same. but there was no center armrest. The tachometer was now optional instead of standard. the carpeting in the trunk area was replaced by a vinyl mat. the rear seats did not fold forward and the electroluminescent gauges disappeared in favor of a conventional design. The standard engine was the 318 cu in (5. 2 L) 2-bbl until it was replaced in mid-year with a 225 cu in (3. 7 L) slant-six. The 383-2 and 383-4 remained unchanged. A new high-performance package was added. the R/T ("Road/Track" with no 'and' between Road and Track). The R/T came standard with the previous year's 440 "Magnum" and the 426 Hemi was optional. In 1968. Chrysler Corporation began an ad campaign featuring a cartoon bee with an engine on its back featuring models called the "Scat Pack". The Coronet R/T. uper Bee. nbsp;Dart GTS. and Charger R/T received bumble-bee stripes (two thin stripes framing two thick stripes). The stripes were standard on the R/Ts and came in red. white or black. They could be deleted at no cost. The 1968 model year Charger sales increased to 96. 00. including over 17. 00 Charger R/Ts.
