Troy, Isn't that like the one you had?

Troy,if you stillhave any pictures could you post them up,please?
I really love the black interior and the white is a bit too delicate but with the LL1 might look good  :scratchchin:

Thanks,
That was the other Troy: hemi68charger

His was LL1 with a white top and interior - and it had a Hemi. I had one in turquoise with black top and interior (although it was originally gold). I *have* a bright blue one with white top but a black interior (still a project). I prefer the white - but they are harder to keep clean. I owned a black/white/white 68 Charger, still have a bronze/white/white 68Charger, had a yellow with white interior 73 Barracuda, and also have a bright blue with white interior 70 Mach 1. The white top on any of the blues really sets off the color. The interior in 68 is a "pearl" white and can be tricky to get right. The good news is about half of it is black so if you started with all black it wouldn't be the end of the world.

Here's some threads on Troy's:

This was mine (can't guarantee that the color is "correct"):

Thanks Neil!

She is at my friend's house and she isn't too bad.Roof,window corners,channels,sail panel,cowl,top of the quarters are excellent ;D
Frame rails aren't that bad and the torsion cross member is only bad on the outside where it joins the rockers.My friend 1nasty69z will go through it and make a list what i need to buy!

Still can't believe it,i own a '68 r/t 4 speed charger :drive:

Yes... it actually looks better than I thought it would !  Roof , drip rails, cowl , a-pillars , all look better than my car...Looks to have one repaint on it, red over turquoise ,  has original doors on it still. Have to go over it better this week. Best part its a Dana car ! I was a little scared to see it when it got here, they always seem to be worse than they look in pictures. But Im happy with it so far. It will take dedication , patience, and $$$$$ but will be worth it in the long run.
