This rare and powerful 1968 Dodge Charger was sold by Mecum Auctions, featured as Lot T166 at the 2020 Indianapolis auction. Its rarity was up for sale to the most aggressive bidder! Only 211 factory-built 426 HEMI models equipped with a 4-speed manual transmission were built for 1968. Other details of this street beast included a beautifully executed frame-on restoration, flawless factory-matched EE-1 Dark Blue paint with white bee stripe, and a host of other upgrades like new front suspension, exhaust, and clutch. It also kept its original floorboards, with an original white interior, seats, dash and inside door panels! When the gavel finally dropped, it sold for a staggering $160,000!
Auto World has replicated this beautiful 1968 Dodge Charger R/T just as it looked rolling across the red carpeted stage! This Mopar is painted in factory- matched EE-1 Dark Blue paint with contrasting white interior. Under the hood is a high-detailed HEMI powerplant funneling power to the Magnum rims!
