426 HEMI "j" Code, "A" 833 Four speed Numbers Matching Rotisserie Restored w@w

Marketing muscle in the 1960s took a big shift in 1968, and Plymouth made it happen. The company had seen sales fall in 1967 when it had limited the Hemi engine only to the new GTX, a well-optioned model created for well-off buyers. In 1968, the company came up with the new Road Runner, a taxicab on rocket boosters that broke the budget barrier. They sold 17,083 GTX 's of them with Hemi power, one of the highest-production quantities of that famous engine in a single model. On the other hand, just a mere 217 of the GTX 2-door hard top built in 1968 were optioned with that famous, the engine 426 Hemi!

Painted in QQ1 Bright Blue Metallic with a striking white interior, the car stands out immediately. The GTX chrome trim, the special cast rear tail panel plate, and discreet chrome accents make this Mopar stand out. The car rides on 15-inch Magnum 500 wheels with red line tires, giving it a classic muscle car appearance from the factory back in the day. Of course, Hemi callouts on the hood blister inserts and rear deck edge signal what lurks within.
