INTRODUCTION: Just 2 owners, numbers matching, all original sheet
metal, and only 26,684 original miles! Only 219 were produced, and
just 100 were equipped with a 4-speed. The documentation is as good
as it gets: order form, invoice, finance contract, down payment
receipts, 3 build sheets and more. The glovebox pouch is complete
with manuals and certicard. This is one of the best, most authentic
Hemis we've ever owned-the condition is phenomenal, and its
originality is unquestionable. Add in the highly desirable 4-speed
and its stunning color combination, and you've got something truly
special. And best of all, this engine runs absolutely sweet.
EXTERIOR: The fit and finish are outstanding! This car still
retains its original sheet metal, and it is absolutely laser
straight. The panel alignment is precise throughout, and the doors
shut with that solid, new-car feel. Everyone loves the round marker
lights unique to 1968. It's been repainted in its original B5
Bright Blue, and the metallic is laid out evenly with a deep,
high-gloss, mirror-like finish. It even features the correct
painted-on pinstripe down each side. All of the stainless trim is
straight and beautifully polished, and the chrome has been
professionally replated and it even retains its correct original
antenna. The vinyl top is fresh and fits perfectly. The stance is
dialed in just right-sitting on classic Magnum 500 wheels, all
wrapped in brand new BFGoodrich tires, extra fat in back.
INTERIOR: it's a factory white interior car, and it's practically
brand new inside from the carpet to the headliner. The dash area
has been completely restored, including all the bezels, rally
gauges, knobs, and even the glove box liner, which is pristine. The
seats have excellent cushion and have been properly reupholstered.
It features all new reproduction carpet, door panels, headliner,
visors, and more-everything fits and presents beautifully. And the
best part: a 4-speed shifter rising out of the floor between the
bucket seats-exactly how a car like this should be.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It has its original, VIN-matching 426 HEMI that
has been completely rebuilt and professionally bored and stroked to
484 cubic inches. It was dyno tested at an impressive 634
horsepower and 581 lbs of torque! This engine is dialed in-the
sound alone is pure music out of the tailpipes! The engine
compartment is completely restored and detailed to factory-correct
standards, the only variation are the headers which really
unleashes this Hemi's potential. It features the proper fuel lines
feeding dual Carter carburetors, a correct air cleaner,
crinkle-finish valve covers, and even reproduction spark plug wires
routed just as original. The cooling system is correct as well,
including reproduction hoses and clamps. Everything is proper: the
horns and squirters are hooked up, the wiper motor is restored, it
has a reproduction battery and even has correct overspray on the
negative cable. The entire bay is beautifully painted and detailed
and the original fender tag is still attached.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: It's finished just as nicely as the rest of the
car. Everything is painted in the beautiful B5 Blue, including
under the trunk lid, the jambs, and inside. It's detailed with the
correct reproduction sticker, weatherstrip, and trunk mat. It also
includes a restored jack assembly and a painted blue rim fitted
with a reproduction redline tire-just as it would have come from
the factory.
UNDERSIDE: It's just as pristine underneath as the rest of the car.
The floors are spotless, clean metal finished in the correct slop
gray primer with authentic blue overspray from the body. The
suspension and steering have been completely rebuilt and detailed
to assembly-line standards. The brake system has been fully
restored with all new lines, and the emergency brake is properly
hooked up. The fuel system has also been replaced, including the
tank and lines. The exhaust sounds fantastic-factory-style dual
exhaust with a crossover pipe and chrome tips exiting below the
bumper. Looking up at the drivetrain, it features an extra-capacity
oil pan to help keep the engine running cooler and cleaner. It
retains its original VIN-matching 4-speed transmission, along with
the correct heavy-duty Dana rear end equipped with 3.54 Sure Grip
gears.
SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and reputation. Therefore, we
built a 2 million dollar, 10,000 square ft service center, and
hired a team of technicians to service the essentials on every car
we sell.
CONCLUSION: I am confident the next lucky owner of this car will
not regret their decision, everything about this car is amazing. I
should be keeping it myself!
