For Sale: 1968 Dodge Charger in Volo, Illinois

Vehicle Description

Totally sweet, not sour! This Lemon Twist Charger R/T will leave you with a good taste in your mouth. The second generation Chargers are super hot and super hard to find. A 1968 is the most rare, valuable, and difficult to find of them all. This one features a detailed rotisserie restoration, factory a/c and a very unique color combo that will turn heads everywhere!

EXTERIOR: One year only round marker lights and round taillights! What's not to love about this car? The body is completely straight, the gaps are nice and smooth right down to the bottom. It was repainted Lemon Twist Yellow and is polished to a glass like finish. Factory white bumblebee stripe around the tail and the pearl white vinyl top was replaced as well. It has a new windshield, and all the moldings are in excellent shape. The tail panel, lights and emblem looks to be in mint condition. The grill looks great too and has hideaway headlights. New chrome pop up chrome gas cap. All the weatherstrips were replaced. It has working turn signals built into the hood. She's sitting real proud on some new 15" chrome Magnum 500 wheels wrapped in BFG radial redline tires.

INTERIOR: According to the tag this is a factory born pearl white interior. Overall, it looks to be in really nice shape. The door panels with map pockets and armrests have been replaced. The seat upholstery looks very nice and is complete with a set of original seat belts including the shoulder belts. The carpet was replaced and looks great. It also has Lloyd's embroidered mats. In front of me I'm looking at a very clean dash pad that has been replaced. Also looks like a new steering wheel. The center console in between the bucket seats is in very nice shape; better than most I've seen.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The detailed engine compartment has the correct 1968 440 Magnum engine. Appears to be stock: valve covers, air cleaner, manifolds etc. It's also a factory air conditioning car, and that has just been serviced. It has a Mopar radiator with the proper shroud fan and cap. It also has reproduction clamps on the hoses and the windshield squirters are hooked up. The engine bay is clean and painted yellow. The number on the core support matches the number on the fender tag at the bottom side of the hood. It's equipped with power steering and the Optima red top gel battery is properly secured.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Inside the trunk is all painted yellow. It has a wide oval tire for a spare plus the jack assembly is there, including the lug wrench. It also has a trunk mat and even a working trunk light.

UNDERSIDE: She was flipped on a rotisserie so the bottom could be made as pretty as the top. All the metal is beautiful and clean and painted Glossy Lemon Twist Yellow. The steering and suspension look to have been rebuilt, front and back. It also has a dual exhaust system with polished stainless steel Dynomax mufflers and the correct chrome tips. The fuel system has been replaced including the tank and the lines. The brake system was completely rebuilt plus the e-brake is hooked up. Looking up the motor it is spotless and has 1968 casting codes on the side of the block plus the starter was replaced. The 727 Torqueflite automatic transmission also looks fresh. That transfers power to the 8 �" rear end that's been totally apart and serviced.

SERVICE: After our inspection of this car we secured the wiring under the dash, installed a reverse light switch, repaired the original radio, fixed the dash lights, fixed the wipers, serviced the air conditioning, replaced the heater valve, fixed the hood turn signal indicator, replaced the cigarette lighter, replaced the steering gearbox, replaced the power steering pulley, repaired the loose vent window frame, replaced the window regulator, lubed the rear window tracks, freed the proportioning valve and bled the brake system.

This one has a lot to offer including a color combination that you are not likely to see again. With prices steadily increasing, clicking the "buy it now" tab is the smartest decision you can make right now!
