Bought a 68 charger today and drove 150 miles back home. It's a good 5 footer but will get a complete restoration after we finish my son car.
Thanks!

Let's hope that doesn't happen.  It's always great to see a Charger in someone's garage. Better than in a junkyard.  They look better on the road though. :2thumbs:

If only mine looked that nice!

I would save your money and switch out that green interior or dye it and just enjoy it as is.
