Well, this is just a curiosity question. I just purchased a 68 charger, and the VIN is later than any 68 i've ever had. I was just wondering who on this site has a really high 68 VIN number, as in the 400's.. For example.. XP29F8B400000.  Mine is 452. Anyone out there have a 68 with a higher VIN?

4493xx has a July 5th scheduled production date. Actual production dates can vary and can't be documented in any way I'm aware of.

July 9th?  Dang, weren't the 69 year models already being built?   That's got to be one of the last 68's built.    :2thumbs:

Does it have one of those funny grills?    ;)

Seriously, the latest one I have in my files is a 383 4-bbl 4-speed. The vin is XP29H8B451805. I've attached a few photos for fun.

I know of XP29F8B454505

But, the cars were not produced in VIN order, so the last one made, well, there is just no way to know.

well 454 is definitely the highest i have heard of. Not that it mattered i just thought it would be cool if i had bought one of the last or the last 68 produced. 452 is quite a ways off though, oh well. Thanks Dan and Barry!

Original paint? If so, post some pics. Or if not post some pics. ;D

Here's a few.  The green is clearly visible under the poorly applied primer paint scheme.  Bad enough to leave it alone since it fits the "patina" trend, but just as tempting to carefully remove the primer and let it wear its original green until it gets a repaint.
