Welcome !!
That is one fine 68 notchback you have !
I'm glad you're fullfilling your dream.

Welcome! You do know that owning one Mopar makes you susceptible to buying more?!!!

This may have been a dog-dish car originally. A full wheelcover car would have had black wheels. or someone just painted the wheels red.

It’s weird. I keep searching the forums for cars for sale. Lol. I have no place or money for another one now but I do have a plan for the future. This was my grandfathers car that he rebuilt. I want to get a roller one day to make my own.

The wheels were painted red. I need new tires and may get new wheels as well. Although I think the red on the wheel looks good, I’m not a fan of the caps.

Love the notchback! dog dishs and trim rings on a painted rim are another option.

Welcome aboard from another fish owner. Nice notch!

Did the 318 equipped Barracudas that year that you guys have come originally with the 727 Torqueflite or was the 904 Torqueflite original equipment? Thank you.
