It's been about a year and a half since my 69rt was stolen and almost that long since I posted on here. I found a 68 charger today, it's been sitting for over 30 years, no drivetrain, needs everything. It's perfect so it came home with me tonight. When I remember how to upload pictures I will post some, project to start this fall.

Glad to see you back. Even better you got another Charger. IMO 68s are better but that's just me. I hope you'll enjoy the 68 as you did your 69 R/T and hopes that you didn't just get a 2nd gen Charger to get a 2nd gen Charger.

Looking forward to seeing pics of your new pride & joy.

Welcome  :cheers:

Looks good, any idea on motor yet, got a 400 & 727 complete if you want to just drive for now. Pick up only but the price would be right.

I have a 440 6 pack with edelbrock heads ready to go and a 4 speed. I am thinking of selling the 6 pack and getting a blower though.

Thanks, the garage still isn't even done. I was building it when I found the charger, I wasn't really ready to get another charger yet but I couldn't pass this deal up

Like the others, that looks like a really nice car to start with. Hey, If your not to far away and those Alum Slots are fairly decent, and you're thinking of getting rid of them, I may be interested. Let me know.
