68 R/T on ebay with some fender tag questions

[Dino]

Has anyone asked the seller for the build sheet or info on the tag?  It may just be a reproduction.

The ad states that the car has been in the family since 1970.  Has anyone asked the seller if he has the build sheet to the car?  That IS the only way to link the fender tag to the VIN tag on a 1968. Also has anyone checked to see if the radiator support number matches the 090385 on the fender tag?  Also just to add "The Standard Black Sport Stripes on LS, WM, WS, and XS Models will not be coded on the Fender Tag."

I asked him if he had a broadcast sheet a day or so ago.  He said he did not.   Which is strange if his family has had the car since 1970 and they restored it in the 80's.  But again, it may not have been him who restored it, so maybe it was found and is gone now.  Who knows.  Sorry for forgetting to mention that I had asked.

Wouldn't the 420 code=R0=AM/8 Track; 421=R1=2 watt AM radio (musicmaster); 422=R2=5 1/2 watt AM radio (astrophonic)?

As posted above, yes.

To review....in either of the threads with code R/3 radios, has anyone been able to produce any evidence of a AM/FM radio coding 423 that would have been available in either of the cars?

I misunderstood what you were saying in the earlier post.  And no, I myself have never seen anything substantiating an R3 am/fm radio in a 68.  At the beginning of this thread I thought I had seen an R8 am/fm radio on a 68 but by now I have talked myself out of it having even been a charger.

I have found all kinds of info on the 423 option (R3) by now and stand corrected, I was unfamiliar with it.  As most here are saying, I don't think it is a valid code on a 68 which makes me suspicious of both these tags.

yeah was just looking at that on Ebay ,  better pictures this time  , looks a awesome charger    , but still a few things that don't add up to me ,  & of  course the iffy vin or allen head bolts to hold the vin tag on too
