Radiator Size Confirmation Needed

[The Rebel]

Looking at the code 2898045, I can't see any listing in the parts catalog for a 68 Charger.

Code 45 on my BS: Radiator: 22” 383/440 w/AT “B” Body

Thanks in advance!

Thanks Wayne! Yep it's an automatic. Any idea why it wasn't in any of the parts manuals?

I actually looked in the 1968 parts manual while I was in the shop and that is exactly what is listed for a 383 in a Charger with Auto and regular heater.

Thanks Wayne. I definitely missed it then, thanks a million for your help!

Hey Wayne, where did you find it listed as I re-looked at the 68 parts catalog and there is no number listed

I'll get a pic later today out of the true '68 manual, didn't have my camera in the shop yesterday.

First pages of the manual state Coronet and Charger are both "W" 's

Thanks Wayne! How come the 68 parts catalog I downloaded from My Mopar is so different from the original? I figured these were the exact same books?

I can only guess because the one you are looking at was printed in March '69.. superceding April '68. My parts book is April's superceding Dec '67's. Maybe they had stopped making -045 radiators by the time they printed your parts manual!?

I can only assume the -045 is correct, since we have another member looking for one for his '68 Charger in the WTB !

Excellent point!
