I found a guy on craigslist in Vancouver selling some '68 Charger parts so I went out there and had a look. The grill is broken in spots but by some miracle the guy saved all the pieces that had broken off so all I have to do is reattach them when I do the restoration and it will be complete and in one piece. There are no broken teeth at all, just one corner broken off and a spot along the bottom of the plastic bezel. The driver's side fender is in fair shape but it has some rust. There are two small spots that rusted through and one larger long, narrow spot but I've seen much worse. I have no need for the fender and the beat-up valances but they came with the deal - all for $375.

Damn Bull.... slap that grill on ebay in the condition it's in and you'd probably get upwards of $800 for it as is.

Great score bull.  Too bad you weren't closer, the orange 69 needs a front valance.

KA-CHING!! Nice job! :2thumbs:

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

That is great to hear bull!  You've got a promising oppurtunity to obtain the carb you've been after.

I'll PM you for email address, and shoot you a pic and a paragraph about the orange Charger project.

The fender look pretty good but the grille is missing the cheese grater in the centre.   :nana:
