Mecum 68 Hemi Charger

[69 OUR/TEA]

Was fast forwarding thru Mecum's Fri night lineup,this was a great looking color combo,the EE-1 with white int !!!And must say,looked great without a vinyl top.NTM,that looked to be a pretty good deal on the car.

Awesome!!

My car was/is EE-1  Have been debating painting it back to the stock color. I think I will, I don't see many examples of EE-1 floating around.

What's with the wrong radiator? While it looks very nice in the pictures, I think the selling price is an indication of the level of quality.

22 " radiator on a Hemi car    , i think that was possible  , but i'm no expert , cant recall seeing a  Hemi second generation with a 22"

No way Jose.

All 66-71 street Hemis had the upper radiator hose on the passenger's side.

I've been around hemi cars for 35 years and I've never seen a 22" radiator Hemi car.  Does that mean I know everyhting?  I'm sure I don't, but a 22" radiator and an 8 3/4 rear with a 4 speed?  I don't think so.  This car was advertised as a "68 Charger R/T".  In the description it says .."with a 426 hemi.  Never says "original Hemi car", like every car that IS original says in the description.  From my perspective I suspect a car that was not advertised in the clearest language and possibly a buyer swept up in auction fever.

Where was this buyer when it took me 2 1/2 years to sell my REAL 4 speed 68 Hemi Charger and I ended up taking $64K for it?

sure ive seen a 22" with  Hemi motors   , must of been a none stock set up or got confused with something else ,

To put in the bigger radiator wouldnt you have to change the front panel to the bigger opening one.

The 70 hemi charger was also a beautiful car.... And claimed $200k purchase! 
I think that was the most Mopars I've seen at mecum!  Lots of Cudas, super bees, coronets.

a Hemi automatic car with no performance axle package (meaning 8 3/4 rearend with 3,23 gears) should have a 22" radiator

[Mytur Binsdirti]

Ahhhh, no.

[charge69]

Mine has the original radiator. It also has an 8 3/4 rear 727auto, and 3.23 rearend with suregrip. Yep, it is a 26" radiator. Never seen a second gen Hemicar with a 22" radiator.
