426-425 HP HemiMessage from the seller
INTRODUCTION: Just 2 owners, numbers matching, all original sheet metal, and only 26,684 original miles! Only 219 were produced, and just 100 were equipped with a 4-speed. The documentation is as good as it gets: order form, invoice, finance contract, down payment receipts, 3 build sheets and more. The glovebox pouch is complete with manuals and certicard. This is one of the best, most authentic Hemis we've ever owned-the condition is phenomenal, and its originality is unquestionable. Add in the highly desirable 4-speed and its stunning color combination, and you've got something truly special. And best of all, this engine runs absolutely sweet. EXTERIOR: The fit and finish are outstanding! This car still retains its original sheet metal, and it is absolutely laser straight. The panel alignment is precise throughout, and the doors shut with that solid, new-car feel. Everyone loves the round marker lights unique to 1968. It's been repainted in its original B5 Bright Blue, and the metallic is laid out evenly with a deep, high-gloss, mirror-like finish. It even features the correct painted-on pinstripe down each side. All of the stainless trim is straight and beautifully polished, and the chrome has been professionally replated and it even retains its correct original antenna. The vinyl top is fresh and fits perfectly. The stance is dialed in just right-sitting on classic Magnum 500 wheels, all wrapped in brand new BFGoodrich tires, extra fat in back. INTERIOR: it's a factory white interior car, and it's practically brand new inside from the carpet to the headliner. The dash area has been completely restored, including all the bezels, rally gauges, knobs, and even the glove box liner, which is pristine. The seats have excellent cushion and have been properly reupholstered. It features all new reproduction carpet, door panels, headliner, visors, and more-everything fits and presents beautifully. And the best part: a 4-speed shifter rising out of the floor between the bucket seats-exactly how a car like this should be. ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It has its original, VIN-matching 426 HEMI that has been completely rebuilt and professionally bored and stroked to 484 cubic inches. It was dyno tested at an impressive 634 horsepower and 581 lbs of torque! This engine is dialed in-the sound alone is pure music out of the tailpipes! The engine compartment is completely restored and detailed to factory-correct standards, the only variation are the headers which really unleashes this Hemi's potential. It features the proper fuel lines feeding dual Carter carburetors, a correct air cleaner, crinkle-finish valve covers, and even reproduction spark plug wires routed just as original. The cooling system is correct as well, including reproduction hoses and clamps. Everything is proper: the horns and squirters are hooked up, the wiper motor is restored, it has a reproduction battery and even has correct overspray on the negative cable. The entire bay is beautifully painted and detailed and the original fender tag is still attached. TRUNK COMPARTMENT: It's finished just as nicely as the rest of the car. Everything is painted in the beautiful B5 Blue, including under the trunk lid, the jambs, and inside. It's detailed with the correct reproduction sticker, weatherstrip, and trunk mat. It also includes a restored jack assembly and a painted blue rim fitted with a reproduction redline tire-just as it would have come from the factory. UNDERSIDE: It's just as pristine underneath as the rest of the car. The floors are spotless, clean metal finished in the correct slop gray primer with authentic blue overspray from the body. The suspension and steering have been completely rebuilt and detailed to assembly-line standards. The brake system has been fully restored with all new lines, and the emergency brake is properly hooked up. The fuel system has also been replaced, including the tank and lines. The exhaust sounds fantastic-factory-style dual exh
