The Dodge Charger, introduced in 1966, initially sported a sleek fastback design and a luxurious interior. However, the 1968 model year marked a significant shift, transforming the Charger into a more traditional muscle car with a bold, boxy exterior and a focus on performance.
This iteration, powered by high-performance V8 engines, quickly became a popular choice among car enthusiasts, leading to strong sales figures.
Despite their iconic status today, many 1968 Chargers fell victim to neglect during the Malaise Era, resulting in a significant number of cars requiring restoration.
While the idea of saving these classic vehicles is appealing to Mopar enthusiasts, the financial reality of restoring a car often exceeds its market value, even in pristine condition. Unearthed from decades of slumber, this 1968 Dodge Charger is a classic muscle car in rough shape.
Sitting neglected since 1986, time hasn’t been kind. Rust has ravaged the once-vibrant green paint, and the interior suffers from serious weather damage.
The exterior is far from complete, missing the front grille, bumper, and crucially, the engine and transmission. To top it off, the fender tags, signifying its rarity as a two-tone model, are gone as well.
