Just to chime in hear on Barry's post.....
Over the weekend I was going to mention this update of the 1968 Dodge info that was added to Barry's web site, but I wanted to let Barry post it here first.
 This material came from Barry Dodge in Brockport, NY. (no connection to Barry Washington) It was loaned to me by Jack Barry who's father owned the dealership from 1964 until he passed away in 1990.
 A couple of weeks ago I got the ok from Jack  to scan some of the material and forward it to Barry Washington so he could post it on his website.
 I'm still digging through more of the material and when I get the chance to scan it. I will be sending it off to Barry for posting on his site. Barry is number one in the Mopar world when it comes to sharing this kind of info for everyone and at no cost. I'm just glad I have been able to help him add to his huge Library of Mopar data.

On a foot note.  Some of you might recall that my Charger was sold new at Barry Dodge in January 1968. The building still stands today, but the Dodge dealership is now gone, as it was shut down a few years ago by the Chrysler bankruptcy.

Thanks, Jon. This information is priceless....

Thank You   

[36 Dodge Brothers]

Great info! Thank you.

What's also cool about this 1968 Dodge ordering information is the Police car and Taxi listing.  At first I wasn't going to scan those pages, but then I thought that there is very little known on what was standard or optional on those fleet car packages. 
  I still have a load of 1968 Dodge Truck info that I have not scan. But doing that will be up to Barry. That is if he is interested in truck data for his web site.

[Alaskan_TA]

Yes please. 

I love seeing the data for the common bread & butter cars / trucks. They are a big part of what kept Chrysler alive for so long.

[pullrock]

Thank you!

[Tilar]

Very cool! Thanks to both of you! 

[Charger_Dart]

Thanks Jon for taking the time to scan this information and share it.

Interesting...

1/15/68 - Hood mounted turn indicators no longer required. Also a wide sill molding option starting in February (code 529). What is that?

1/24/68 - Six-cylinder Charger now available starting February 1.

1/1/68 - Full horn ring steering wheel available. My '68 Charger R/T has this though, and it was built 12/28/1967.

5/20/68 - All 426 Hemi 4spd Chargers built after 6/1 will have flush exposed headlights and chrome windshield reveal.

Bulletin #14....

[rarefish]

Thanks Jon for taking the time to scan this information and share it.  

I should have got this material out to the public a long time ago.  Jack Barry had been sitting on this 1968 dealer info for around 20 yrs. I always thought Barry Washington's web site had these records already. It was just last month that I found out that it was not the case.  Better late than never.......
Jon,

[FastbackJon]

Any 1966 or 1967 dealer info like this?

[Alaskan_TA]

You can see what we have available for 1966 & 1967 so far at http://www.hamtramck-historical.com/library-2.shtml

None of the years are 'complete', so they are added as folks find, scan & submit them.

[XS29J8]

Thanks Jon & Barry! I feel somewhat vindicated for stating the fact that the 68 HEMI Charger 4spd would only be available as aflush grill exposed headlight car after June 1st 1968. I have this bulletin in my archives but have hidden it from myself.........

5/20/68 - All 426 Hemi 4spd Chargers built after 6/1 will have flush exposed headlights and chrome windshield reveal.
