Hello all.
What is the value hit for a 1968 RT with only a date correct replacement engine?
thanks!

Is it the car you mentioned in this thread (http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,130757.0.html)?
Yes.
Its a restored 68 RT.
Is there a value bump downwards?
thanks
JWW
Yes.
Hard to say on what percentage.....depends a lot on the condition and options etc.

:iagree:
Was it an OE-type (correct/NOS parts, primered floor pans, overspray & runs in the orange peel paint, ect.) restoration aiming at the upper end of the market, or a YearOne & shiny paint resto? There's a market for both - but one is more heavily impacted by the lack of a numbers-matching engine/drivetrain.
I'm guessing the car is also missing its broadcast sheet?
No broadcast sheet. No history papers.
But its a high end, factory-correct everything car.
Vin says real RT 440, auto.
Concours paint.
The block is date code correct with a "C" on the front pad for 1967.
Car was built in Nov. '67.
thanks!!

Without a J-code VIN, "factory-correct" doesn't apply and has marginal bearing on the value apart from the separate value of the engine itself (and that is still a function of whether the mill has original parts/components). The "C" on the front ID pad is for the 1967 model year, produced from 8/66 through 7/67.
It might be a great car, but its value isn't tied to the car's heritage nearly as much. In the eyes of the market for pricing purposes, it's a HemiCharger clone.
:iagree:
Its a 440 RT, not a semi clone.
Ive been told condition is just as important when value is concerned.
thanks
JWW
How much is it?
Is the original 440 engine still around?
Original 440 long gone.
Im not selling, actually.
thanks of the help.

So it does, or does not, have a hemi engine in it now?

I thought you were thinking of buying it....was curious as to the asking price.
