Highlights
1968 Dodge Charger, finished in blue with a black interior. This Charger has been reportedly restored and it's fitted with a Gen. III 6.1-liter Hemi V8 and a Viper-sourced T56 6-speed manual transmission.
Dodge introduced the Charger for 1966, and the second-generation model launched for 1968 stood out with sportier-looking styling and, later in the production run, an available straight-6 engine. The second-generation Charger spawned several high-performance variants, including the aerodynamic Daytona, but it's best remembered as General Lee in the television show The Dukes of Hazzard. Production ended after the 1970 model year, though the nameplate lives on and remains part of the Dodge range today.
Power comes from a Gen. III 6.1-liter V8. Output is sent to the rear wheels via a T56 6-speed manual transmission.
