You're welcome, now you can update that thread with a "found" and watch all the other ones come out of the woodwork. Speaking of "update", your profile needs to include that latest 2 purchases.

Couple things, is it the 4 speed you hoped for and are you putting a red rump stripe on it?

I bought this last Monday in Ohio. Should have it home here on Thursday. True 440 RT. Thanks to jimynick and 303 Mopar for their help in this.

Hell ya! Welcome to the '68 Charger club! So glad this worked out, and sounds like you scored on all the extras.  We want video of the delivery too!   :needphotos:

Black Charger. Bad to the Bone. AT or 4 speed?
I must say I had the previlage to ride in a triple black 69 HEMI Charger almost 40 years ago and it is a life long memory that got me into Mopar. Congratulation.

I wanted a 440 4 speed because my Challenger is a 340 auto. This one is also an auto but it ticked all the other boxes and I'm not really a 4 speed guy anyway so I'm cool with it. I will be changing the tail stripe to red so it falls in with the colour scheme of my Challengers. I'm also going to go back to the original hood. And I ordered vanity plates.

Beautiful!!

If you ever get the 4 speed bug again and want to trade for a 4 speed R/T let me know. :cheers:

Hey! The first couple of those photos look mighty familiar!LOL So, you finally let the cat out of the bag, eh? The car IS nice and we gave it a pretty good looking over, up and down. It not only looks good, it sounds good and despite Murray's vow to change the tail stripe, I think he may come around to that black one. We'll see. Murray, congrats on purchasing not only your, but many other's wish car and I can't wait to see the look on Doug's face when you take it over to his place! A 4 pack! How many guys are THAT lucky?  :cheers:

Good plan on changing the hood.  Once you see how  :wowzers: black stripes look on top of black paint, I think you'll change your mind.  Red stripes look great but flat black stripes on a black car look  :wowzers:
