Thanks for letting me join.
The ride?
A '68 Dodge Charger purchased over 20 years ago jointly with my step-father. It is now in my possession and I will be looking for info.

Sweet looking 68! What's the history of the car?

Sweet looking 68! What's the history of the car?

We bought the car about 20 years ago and agreed my step father could hold it as long as he wanted. He passed from this world on May 1st and did not take it with him. I guess he did not want it.

We put about $8000 in car and some repairs then. I am in the process of changing rear springs (one broke recently), fuel tank, bushings, seals, and tires now. Next year I want to address body issues (floor pan, and 1 rear qtr panel on the bottom), A/C, and carpet. The seat covers are original. The 383 was bored 0.40 over, 4bbl added, and a little different cam.

Cool! Let's get some interior shots as well!

A good place to get springs here. I replaced my original sagging springs from here: http://www.eatondetroitspring.com/

The color on driver's front fender is reflection of my bricks on the house. Not body work
