What would you do with this thing? :shruggy: It's pretty beat up and missing lots of parts but it might be one of the rare 383/4 speed cars. Would you restore it? Zero seller feedback is not real comforting either.

Im pretty sure its not an original 4 speed car, I think I'd pull the engine and trans, toss the rest. Pretty beat up, doesnt seem like worth saving. Maybe donate body to some cascar or racing museum?  :shruggy:

I agree. It looks like too much is missing and modified to restore it. Just make it loud, fast, safe, and drive the hell out of it.

no offense, but you fellas are negative!!!  Own a piece of history the 'charger' that made you KING of the road back in the day and still can be King of the road with its awesome power!!!  These things go up in value daily and will not come down one bit due to the popularity of the charger.

Buy this now or I will raise the price!!!!!!!!!

Unlike all of the fake Duke boyz clonemobiles out there, this car would be a much better candidate for a Dukes clone,  mainly because you really do have to jump through the window to get in and out odf it.

I must be crazy.....I'd restore it. However it would be the perfect candidate for a custom build.

You're buying the engine, trans with pistol grip and and 8 3/4 rear end.  The rest of the car is free.  Not bad.

If I had to spend the money (say before the Canadian Revenue Agency found out) I'd buy it and keep it as is. Take it to shows just like that.

How many 68 Chargers have a race history? Even if at a local level it means more than just another restored Charger. Sorry Bull but a 383 2bbl 4 speed may be rare but not the hotest setup back in the day, which is why it is so rare.

To far gone to restore and I agree with some of the others, make it street legal and drive it AS IS!

IF....I bought that car, I'd find a local dirt track and put Dodge back on an oval.

Perfect candidate for the next #22 Bobby Allison 305 test car.    About the same quality too.

I think if I got it (and could afford it), I'd just do a "daily driver" restoration on it.  That is, clean it up and make it mechanically sound and safe to drive on the road.  Then I'd go for a low budget body work job and have the racing paint job redone all new and shiny.

I mean, hay, to me, it'a always cool to drive around in a race car, and what better one than an old charger?  (and that way I could have the nice one for shows and such and the old race car one for cruising to 7/11!)

Yep. Good car for a NASCAR clone.
