 For sale is a numbers matching 1968 Charger RT.  The photo with the white interior is how I received the car 6 months ago.  Absolutely all original body panels (floors, trunk, doors, valance), minor surface rust on the under carriage, no holes or patches.original drive train (engine, transmission and rear end 3.23 sure grip).  Original 4 wheel drum brakes (power).  The interior was originally white.  After purchasing different seat covers and door panels (upper and lower) it became obvious that all the white 'colors' would not match so I opted for black.  That means the complete interior was replaced, including the console, dash, seat covers, door panels (upper and lower), arm rest and base, door handles, window cranks, steering wheel (power steering), carpet, seat belts and headliner (headliner comes with car, complete with bows but not yet installed).  The car has new bumpers, bumper support brackets, side markers (front& back), LED tail lights, emblems, hood blinkers, 18' Magnum tires and wheels (or original 14"), trunk liner, headlights, windshield, windshield rubber, windshield chrome, rear window chrome, headlight bezels, antennae, radio, under dash wiring harness, battery, dynamat insulation.....the list goes on.  You can check my eBay purchases over the last 6 months which total well over 10K spent on this car.  Another 4K spent outside of eBay and an additional 6K on the paint.  Of course this does not include the cost of the rust free, numbers matching, absolutely straight body 1968 RT.  This car does not have a fender tag which can be ordered but does have a Tennessee title.  I never registered the car since they do NOT issue titles in Georgia and would have kept the title I have.  Also have new 68 Charger tailpipes and hangers which may or may not be installed by close of auction but will go with car.

The paint is 3 months old and has not been completely buffed out.  There are flaws in the paint. nothing major but I believe in full disclosure.  The original color of the car was burgundy.  The new paint is a Dodge color, Wildberry Pearl.  It is absolutely stunning.  I tried to match the original burgundy as close as I could so I would not have to pull the engine to paint the engine compartment.  The engine was rebuilt 5 years ago before the car was but in storage and started every 6-8 months by the previous owner.  It runs great.  I changed the carburetor to a period correct Carter.   The wheels on the car are 18 inch but the original 14 inch magnum wheels can be substituted.  The pictures speak for themselves.  This car is not that pricey given the fact that it is an original numbers matching car.  I've sold two XP cars that were no where near as nice for more than the reserve on this car.

Please do not ask the reserve, as the auction will run its course.  Only an unrestored, non numbers matching (or rolling) 68 RT will be considered as partial trade ( I have a 426 Hemi I need to find a home for).

I am sure I have left out a lot of information so feel free to ask.

FCA is setting a five-year strategy: Here's how the last one played out

Thu, May 31 2018

We're slightly more than four years removed from Sergio Marchionne last five-year plan for FCA, a tell-all where the Italian-American automaker divulged its plans for the 2014 through 2018 model years. It was a grand affair, where Sergio told FCA investors that all was right in Auburn Hills, Alfa Romeo and Maserati were making comebacks, and the fifth-gen Dodge Viper received a mid-cycle refresh. You can read every last one of those past predictions right here. We're on our way to Europe to see Sergio's sequel, coming out Friday straight from FCA's Italian headquarters. (Bloomberg reports a plan to expand Jeep and Ram globally, combine Alfa Romeo and Maserati into a single division for an eventual spinoff, and downsizing Fiat and Chrysler. Also, EVs.) But before we arrive in Italy and find out exactly what Marchionne has planned for 2019 through 2023 as his last act as CEO, let's take a minute to tally up the results of his last term based on the same scoresheet we used in 2014. Now, we're only five months into 2018, so much of this — including vehicles like the Ram HD and Jeep Grand Wagoneer — could still debut this year. For those, we'll mark things TBD. We're not going to draw any conclusions or make any objectionable remarks. We're simply going to let the stats speak for themselves.

Stellantis wants to outfit cars with AI software to drive revenue

Tue, Dec 7 2021

MILAN — Carmaker Stellantis announced a strategy Tuesday to embed AI-enabled software in 34 million vehicles across its 14 brands, hoping the tech upgrade will help it bring in 20 billion euros ($22.6 billion) in annual revenue by 2030. CEO Carlos Tavares heralded the move as part of a strategy that would transform the car company into a “sustainable mobility tech company,” with business growth coming from features and services tied to the internet. That includes using voice commands to activate navigation, make payments and order products online. The company is expanding existing partnerships with BMW on partially automated driving, iPhone manufacturer Foxconn on customized cockpits and Waymo to push their autonomous driving work into light commercial vehicle delivery fleets. StellantisÂ’ embrace of artificial intelligence and expansion of software-enabled vehicles is part of a broad transformation in the auto industry, with a race toward more fully electric and hybrid propulsion systems, more autonomous driving features and increased connectivity in automobiles. Ford and General Motors also are banking on dramatically increased revenue from similar online subscription services. But the automakers face immense competition for monthly consumer spending from movie and music streaming services, news outlets, Amazon Prime and others. Stellantis, which was formed from the combination of PSA Peugeot and FCA Fiat Chrysler, said the software would seamlessly integrate into customers' lives, with the capability of live updates providing upgraded services over time. New products will include the possibility to subscribe to automated driving features, purchase usage-based car insurance or even increase the power of the vehicle with a tune-up to add horsepower. As a baseline, Stellantis generates 400 million euros in revenue on software-generated services installed in 12 million vehicles. To meet the targets, Stellantis will expand its software engineering team of 1,000 to 4,500 in North America, Asia and Europe. More than 1,000 of the expanded team will be retrained in house. Stellantis also announced a new partnership with Foxconn to develop semiconductors to cover 80% of the companyÂ’s needs and simplify the supply chain. The first microchips from the partnership are targeted to be installed in vehicles in 2024.

Mopar Hellephant is sold out, but here are 4 other awesome crate V8s to try

Mon, May 6 2019

Despite a relatively enormous $30,000 price tag, Mopar's 1,000-horsepower supercharged Hellephant crate engine sold out in just 48 hours. Some enthusiasts may have missed out on the crazy engine due to lack of funds, or they just assumed there would still be some Hellephants down the line. But worry not, swap-happy gearheads. There are plenty of V8s in the world to pick from, and we highlighted four favorites. They're not as powerful, but they're all cheaper, and still have a lot to offer. Mopar 6.2L Hellcrate Odds are a lot of prospective Hellephant buyers were Mopar fans to begin with, so we'll start the list with the next-most-potent offering: the Hellcrate. This is the same supercharged 6.2-liter V8 found under the hood of the Dodge Charger and Challenger Hellcats and the Grand Cherokee Trackhawk. It makes 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque like those cars, too. It's also about $10,000 cheaper than the Hellephant engine at $20,020, and that leftover money can be used to finish the project or for aftermarket upgrades to get it closer to the Hellephant's output. GM LS9 6.2L The Hellcrate isn't the only factory supercharged crate engine on the market. From General Motors comes the supercharged 6.2-liter LS9 V8. This is the engine that was used in the C6 Corvette ZR1. At 638 horsepower and 604 pound-feet of torque, it doesn't make as much power or torque as the Hellcrate. But it does boast a dry sump oil system. So instead of pumping oil out of a pan at the bottom, the engine uses an oil tank mounted remotely that pumps oil into the engine. This means the engine is shorter overall, and can be mounted lower for a better center of gravity. It also means that there's almost no risk of running the engine dry in hard cornering, as could happen with a normal oil sump where the oil can slosh to the side without the oil pump. Basically, it offers some major benefits if you want supercharged V8 power for a road course car. It's also a tad cheaper than the Hellcrate at $18,149. But get one while you can, because GM is only selling what's left from when it was building the C6 ZR1. Ford Aluminator 5.2XS Our pick from the Blue Oval lacks a supercharger, but it's still pretty sweet.
