The 1968 Dodge Charger R/T Hemi was a muscle car with star quality.Charger's new hidden-headlamp grille, curvy body, elegant recessed backlight, refined tail, and spare use of chrome represented a styling high point for '60s muscle cars. And in R/T form, its performance justified equal praise. For $3,506, the R/T came with the 375-bhp 440-cid four-barrel Magnum V-8, heavy-duty brakes, R/T handling package, and F70Xl4 tires. The rear bumblebee stripe could be left off, while inside, the original Charger's space-age interior gave way to less flashy, more functional decor.
The engine is a new rebuilt 383 300HP, with a strong rebuilt 3spd automatic transmission and power steering. This is one fantastic engine compartment with everything painted and plated like it came straight from the factory. One update on this gorgeous car is a Flowmaster exhaust, giving it that throaty sound a 383 is famous for. Restoration of the car spared no expense with all mechanical parts new, rebuilt, painted or replated. There are original rally wheels and red line tires on the car that give it the final look that made these car such a hit in 68.
