RT optional, and super bee Standard 68-69
no rally dash for Plymouth until it was standard in 1970
@MarPar One thing I notice on your car... it has the early production round vent pulls. The were replaced by the angular ones that said “vent” on them early in the ‘68 MY. Does your car also have the early slide down ash tray?
I am not the PO. I just bombed his thread
I have a 68 GTX
But the drivetrain serial #s started later on in the year..
I have 3 68’s from Lynch Rd. that don’t have the SON on the rad support. But a St. Louis that does. I think a lot of that number stamping was transitioning that year. By ‘69, it seems all cars got stamped.Couldn't have. I just worked on a one owner 68 R/T with the same 9/67 build date and it had the partial VIN stamped on both the engine and trans. Maybe different plants had different policies regarding that practice, but it must have been done during the entire '68 production run.

My St Louis built GTX has the SON on the rad support and trunk lip, but nothing on the block by the bellhousing.
There were a number of changes made during '68. (RC has a thread about this) I have a late April '68 car with the sliding ashtray. Not sure when that was phased out.@MarPar One thing I notice on your car... it has the early production round vent pulls.

I wonder if it could even have been the dealership who wrote on the window sticker. Whomever did it tried to erase the typed LL1 before writing over it.It would be nice of people didn’t write on the original paperwork. @64BEL Thanks for posting this again.
Yeah. It seems like they were one of the first plants to implement the “hidden numbers” for LEO’s. But since all the records of the 68’s were supposedly lost in a fire... without a fender tag, BS, or window sticker, how would you connect the two?
No numbers here.My St Louis built GTX has the SON on the rad support and trunk lip, but nothing on the block by the bellhousing.
