OT 68 Charger R/T identification
« on: August 12, 2011 - 09:10:09 AM »
Hey guys, I know its not Ebody but regarding a 68 Charger RT. Are there any VISUAL features of the R/T that identify it as such, other than the R/T emblem?  Not talking about vin numbers and all that jazz but stuff like the grill being different or something like that. I know the R/T had the stripes on the rear but anything else?

thanks

I have a friend who's a Charger guy that I've been trying to get to log in here for a while. I'll see if this maybe provides the impetus to do so and answer your question.

No other visuals I can think of other than the 440 under the hood, heavy duty leaf springs in back.  Go to DodgeCharger.com and you will get all the Charger info you will need  :thumbsup:
