Removed my rear axle on my charger 69 rt/se
and found this on it.
Did some 69 charger 69 rt/se 440 come with this axle 8 3/4 ???







Also found this on my gas tank

3.23 ratio 8¾" axle was the standard rear for a 440/ auto '69 Charger.

Broadcast sheets are NOT available

Not sure on the gas tank markings....maybe it came from a salvage yard?

The "589" on the axle tube = 69 B-Body, Non Sure Grip, 10" brakes.

827 = August 27th

What is the build date of the car? - your 030 is incorrect


L98  is that L9B?

You should give us your tag info starting from the bottom line - left to right.

Is that a B30 or 830? If you flip the tag over it may be easier to read.....just backwards  :icon_smile_big:

Its 8/30/68

A01 is not your top color---A01 is for the Light Group (map, glovebox, trunk)

You also forgot the

H51--- Air Conditioning
V8X ----black stripe

"L98" is not a code....you are looking at the bottom line which reads "L9B"

L---440 engine
9---1969 model year

That is one loaded up car.....I would say the rear end is probably the original.

So far I have (3) F3 green, CRT tan leather, V1F green top cars in the registry (2 of them are RT/SE, the other SE)

The (2) RT/SE's both have a black stripes as well.....Bob's car is in Sweden & the other is in Norway! (imported from NJ in 1987)

Yes, uncommon for the most part.   Only have 57 cars in the registry with the N88 code (that I have full fender tag info on)

Thanks for the info guys!

Heres some pictures of my restoration this far.
Removing all the factory body on the undercarriage.
The steel are in amazing condition.
Even the rear inner fenders are totally clean from rust.
Removing all before sandblasting the car and then sanding the undercarriage
All my pictures are found on my site www.bobfist.com
