Oh.....    my...........      GAWD!!!!! 

Damn nice car! And, a HEMI car with floors like THAT?!?!?!?!?? Terrific find.

[RT DAVE]

I have to ask.  How much $$$$ did it take to end that auction.  Sorry if you don't want to say, that's cool too.  Beautiful car all the way around.

Not as much $ as you might think. It was more persuasion and charm . It's a long story.

Just spent the last 4 hours replacing the carpet and using Mar Hyde spray dye to dye the carpet on the console. It looks much nicer.

Well raise my rent...that's one damn fine car. Is the original paint Dupont LL-1? I have a 68 R/T 440/727 with LL-1...but it's in pieces! Some day...

Looks to be QQ1, bright blue Poly.. Ron, is that correct? My avatar has a closeup picture of my LL1 Med. Dark Turquoise Poly hemi Charger R/T's 'Hemi" badge.....

Ron, sounds like you're having a lot of fun getting here all squared away.....

You can also go here direct for the voltage regulator lettering if you find a proper OEM version....

Cool.. Just got off the phone with them.. Very personal and nice... He's sending me some literature/flyers of their work.......

Before I bought my vol. reg. from Almost NOS, I bought one from Herbs that is pretty close but not exact, and it does not have correct lettering and such. I'm almost done with the preliminary work on the interior and I will post some more pics this weekend if possible. If time permits I'm going to do some work on engine. Maybe start work on underside.

It was miildly restored about 25 years ago and I'm doing another incomplete resto. Much of the car is original.I'm about 80% done with the interior and about 70% done with the engine compartment.

              nice looking HEMI charger    , there is something about them original 15" wheel covers that  make the charger look (not old school ) but  nostalgic  a real look of  a automobile from the past  , awesome stuff ..

Should be 475. Whenever I get the "Production Figures" part of the site back up it will be easier to research...
