Instead of looking in Larry's tool box I jumped on FB and started looking for a service truck. I can't thank you both enough for such a great weekend and all the knowledge you two shared with us... oh, and for getting the car running/driving again.

    Awsome. Who does not like a car story like this one. I am 63 years old and my second car in 1979 was a Green 69 Charger R/T. I already owned a 1972 Hemi Orange Duster. The Charger was a 383 automatic. I put an Offenhauser 2X4 bbl intake with 2 Carter avs 4 bbl. I graduated High School in 1978 and let my brother drive my Charger to school the next year. As long as he took my girl friend and her sister to school and brought them home. He sure treated that Charger well. Kept it clean and drove it like it was his own. What a memory. Thanks and good luck with the 68 Charger.

THANKS Dylan and all you other hardworking professional guys restoring all the classic cars.

    My Dad (car collector and Drag Strip racer) bought a new 68' Charger in triple green with the 383 4 bbl engine Auto PS PB no A/C. It's only problem was vapor locking in the summer months when it was hot. One of his cool cars out of many. Those times were the best for car choices and growing up with them! I'm glad this family held on to theirs and everyone is still alive to enjoy it. A proper restoration in this color combo with the center console automatic/buckets would be awesome. Th 318 was a great engine and much better on gas so it could be a daily driver once again.

He had a 1968 Dodge Charger same as this one. But it was a green color with a 318 I bought it . Not to many people can say there first car was a 1968 Dodge Charger. I have always love the 68 over the 69 / 70. Always wish I could have one today. It would be a dream come true. That car is Beautiful. ❤

    I had a 72 Roadrunner with a 440 when in high school. My friend had a 68 charger with a 318 in it. We agreed to a challenge on the highway. He said 1/4-mile I said 1 mile. So we agreed to both in one run. He blew my doors off in the first 1/4 but I waived by-by to him thereafter hitting nearly 160 mph. We met up afterwards about 5-miles down the road at a Dunkin' Donuts and laughed it off. Memories of muscle cars are "FOREVER!" - jfm

      I was telling her that the patina thing was pushed because people can't afford to pay or don't know how to do it themselves. Which is fine but people pretend every car should just be "original"

    I cannot fathom someone leaving that car in a barn. I love that body style so much, I could NOT ignore it.
    The engine was obviously a 318 but I noticed it had dual exhaust which was not usually factory issue. I suspect when the factory pipes rusted they saved money by eliminating the crossover and went with duals. I did that on my 74 Dodge van. The crossover cost more then the extra muffler and pipes.

    Mopar keys are not upside down, that is the correct orientation for locks, homes included.

BTW, I ran (& still rusting in the yard) A '73 K-30 with a '66 Highway service body, for construction for a few decades. Creeper 4 sp., ft. lockouts, & A 350- 30 over, 11/1 comp, 375+/-hp, was far too much fun, even at 9200# ! Nice work! Thanx !

    That was an awesome revival collaboration video 👍 You need to collab with Dylan more often. How about a collab where you help him put together an old Dodge Service Truck so he can take it to revivals that are in the woods. Vehicles that he needs to get running & driving before he can put them on the trailer to take them home or give them back to the owner. That way he'll have all his tools in the Service Truck instead of carrying around the toolbox & other stuff he has in the back of his pickup that always slides around. If he has service truck that wouldn't happen. He could have an air compressor on board instead of carrying around a tank that has limited air. He could have a welder, I've even seen them with cranes for lifting engines. He could even have a generator for powering lights if it gets dark. I think it would be awesome if you guys could find an old Dodge Pickup Service Truck put a Hellcat motor in it & set it all up so he can take it on the road. It'll probably be a multi-part series, & that will be even better. More content for the both of you. That would be a McCool Sally's Speed Shop build. Maybe even invite Kevin down from Junkyard Digs he's a hoot you guys will definitely have a blast. Or maybe even Derek. You might not get anything done if you invite Derek LOL All four of you together now that's a party. Just like that one night at power tour. When you guys were rebuilding the engine in the hotel room. Everyone was drunk & they all were like shh shh don't make too much noise we don't to get reported for a noise complaint. Meanwhile everybody's banging using power tools. Then someone took one of the luggage dollies to use for engine & they brought it through the damn lobby.😂 How were they not going to notice an engine for a car going thru the lobby 😂 & the oil on the luggage dolly LOL. The was a blast watching that 😂😅 Your friend Eric

    i'd get rid of the vinyl on the top before it rusts out. sand it down and primer it at least. that thing is worth restoring.

    Thank you Larry for laying the groundwork for us modern day truckers. I'd LOVE to see the history of what he drove back in his day.

    I grew up in Fort Worth where I had a car paper route delivering the Dallas Morning News. My boss let me drive his brand new '68 Charger delivering extra routes when others failed to show up. The car was a beautiful shiny black with a white vinyl top and white bucket seats inside. The black newsprint ink turned those white seats gray from contact with thousands of copies of the News. What a shame. It was an automatic with power and air, a family luxury car with a modest muscle car pedigree, to me the most beautiful car I had ever seen despite its soiled seats. I was too much of a good employee to try to do burnouts with it. Sadly that 'career' lasted only a few months, and I never got a decent car of my own until many years later.

    That is an awesome thing you are doing for that family, SUPER COOL! that mans baby, and the way life USUALLY works, you dont usually get to keep a car you buy when you're young until you are eighty, i've got some age, and i've seen it happen too many times, you get something you like and life happens and the car is gone,
    To see his face after you got it to run,
    I am a car guy too, and i felt his emotion too.
    And loving mopars, this car is a diamond in the rough that has'nt been left long enough to change things,
    THANKS FOR THAT DUDE, WAY COOL MC'COOL

    I definitely say it looks better with hubcaps that's the way it came new that's the way it needs to be I'm sure you can find one of them hubcaps somewhere it's some junk yard if not I know there's a hub cap junkyard that has a lot of hubcaps at bernardston Auto salvage in bernardston Massachusetts but it definitely needs a hubcaps guys.
