Hi All,
Grew up around MOPARs. My Dad purchased his first - Chrysler LeBaron stationwagon fully optioned and Dodge Monaco Brougham. When I was 6 or 7 - I fell in love with a white Dodge Challenger from the movie Vanishing Point. Even bought a (still have them) matchbox version of it. Later, fell in love with the Dodge Charger after watching the movie Bullit, Dukes..., and Christine. Always loved the 68 best. Time passed and I moved on.
In the '80s owned everything from a '88 BMW M6, Porsche 911, Porsche 944S2, and even the very rare Audi UrQuattro! Still felt that I was ever hungry for the MOPAR. Sooo, last month I put out an ad in the paper stating I wanted a reasonably priced 68 Charger - one without a lightspeed capability engine or those tuner accessories. A person called - and as a result I became a proud 4th owner of a 68 Charger... Original panel!!! I love it. I have just started cruisin in it. Went to a car show yesterday and met up someone with a lot of knowledge to offer and he recommended this forum to which he too belongs and here I am... Lookin forward to learning lots.

Welcome, lotsa good folk here.

Welcome! This place is a waterfall of outstanding information, and im here holding a bucket to catch it all. Love it here and love those 68 Chargers! Tell us about yours! What engine/Trans, where's the shifter at, what wheels and tires, and ultimately what do you intend to do with it?

Conversely, if you have an issue with it, dig around on here and you'll find the answer. This site was instrumental in getting my Coronet road worthy in a very short time after sitting for umpteen years, now I drive it to work regularly! If you have the time, ability, and patience, anything is possible with your new love affair.

Again, welcome!
