Thanks, the andy440 site was great. Looks like it had all the codes except the tires. Mine is a 31 code and it did not list that one. It decodes to 68 Charger with a 383 4 barrel, 4 speed, white outside with black interior, console, and bucket seats. Did they list the steering on the tag? I could not find a code for it. I did not realize this car was as rare as it is. I've heard numbers of only 259 383 4 speeds. Is that right.

do you have a picture of your fender tag.

As was recently pointed out to me:

Code 31 is a 7.35 x 14 black sidewall tire.

Power steering is not coded on a fender tag.

From what I've seen there is an issue/problem with the '68 Charger transmission numbers as printed for the last couple of decades in Galen's "white books".
With almost 100,000 Charger built: the STANDARD transmission on V8 & /6 Chargers being the manual 3-speed column shift transmission, but GG's numbers show "ZERO" built and only a few "KNOWN" to exist.

The 1968 Model Year WARD'S "Automotive Yearbook", shows transmission breakdown based on the total number of '68 Chargers built for USA, Canada, & Export = 96,108
automatic = 90.4% ~ 86,882 units
3-spd manual = 2.4% ~ 2,307 units (ALL unaccounted for in GG's numbers) these would be 225 & 318 Chargers
4-spd manual = 7.2% ~ 6,920 units   (3,633 unaccounted for in GG's numbers) these would be 383 2bbl, 383 4bbl, 440HP, & HEMI Chargers

GG's numbers are consistent with WARD'S for other OPTIONS such as "power steering", "disc brakes", and "sure-grip".
