2nd Gen Console

[MM1R/T]

Did all second generation Chargers come with a console or buddy seat? In 1968 specifically, could a 4 speed R/T have been built without either the buddy seat or console?

No, not all came with a console or buddy seat. I've seen more than one R/T with a column auto and nothing but carpet on the hump. And similarly the four speed cars could be found with just a floor shifter on the hump.

Actually, let me rephrase that. I've seen one R/T with a column auto and no console or buddy seat but I don't think it was the only one made by any stretch. If it was I should have bought it.

Yup like Bull said.....

Thanks. It looks like that '69 is a radio delete car, too.

Was the console an option or was it standard equipment that had to be deleted by special order?

My bronze 68 with 318 and column shift auto had no console whatsoever.

Both the console & the center armrest "Buddy Seat" were an extra cost option....both could be deleted (at least for the '69 model year)
