Where did the R/T badging and stripes come from? Not original!

Howcome you see every single Charger with an unrestored dash cluster has a faded speedo face plate and this "survivor" does'nt.

Another thing bugging me is when you see GG's name added to an advertisement, the price triples....

IMO just someone who partially restored this one but did'nt want to spend the money on new paint.
I think we are going to have to sit this "survivor" era out till they are really gone so sellers will stop this crap themselves....

As a side note I think it still is a very good looking car that deserves a good home but I guess at that reserve price it wont go anywhere....

NOS is nice, turbo's are neat, but when it comes to Mopars, there's no need to cheat...

Nice car but the story doesn't match the pictures.  Is there a red flag smiley?   :shruggy:

We've discussed this car before have we not?

This is nit picky to be sure, but at the very least that trunk has had some fresh paint applied.  The rust stains on the bottom of the trunk mat appear to correspond with the rusty, rough places on the trunk floor, but they are bright gold rather than nice rusty brown.  Though the originality may be a bit embellished, I'd still park it in my garage!

I've seen the "curley" at the top of the grease penciled "C" on broadcast sheets from other 69 Chargers (here's once from Nov. 20, 1968).  Is there a significance to that or was there one guy doing a lot of cars who had unique handwriting?

Yessiree, looks like old "curly" with the uniquely formed "C" on Broadcast Sheets was doing all of them ?

Here is mine, same / same distinctive "C" as yours, and done the same day Nov 23rd 1968 by "curly" at work, same day as the one in the Charger Ad.

 have the same , on mine  ! all be it CRX ,

 my SPD was /is  22nd November 1968 - B22  , 

got to be the same Guy !! on all the Hamtramck 69 charger broad cast sheets ,  that has had the trim code  crayoned across it , its  the same writing style  ( not all Hamtramck sheets ive seen had them though  , may be , the ones with out the trim code written across it, were for a different department  :shruggy: & or these sheets were found in a different place to the rear seat back ,   one more thing , ive see on one  69 charger broad  broadcast sheet , from the  Hamtramck assembly plant  ,  the trim code written it Crayon ,& it was  a different style   :o  only one I've ever seen that style of writing .
 (i'm far from a expert on this stuff , just my own observations  :yesnod: ...)

It is interesting how the discription never calls the car an R/T, but never mentions the R/T headlight tag or the tail stripe. I guess that way if a newb buys it and is surprised to find out later it's not a real R/T, the seller can always claim he never said it was.
