I brought my Stepdad's '68 home almost 3 years ago after a 30 year stint in the shed. The goal was to get it running and stopping again, take my Mom on a ride and put it in my hometown car show. It's done. Mom was amazed and a lot of old men told me stories about my Stepdad this weekend. The...

Finally got new exhaust on the '68. I'm down to turn signals and getting the headlight covers to operate.

12/15/67 - There is more detail earlier in this thread.

It's been a while since I posted any updates. The 300 is a sweet driver these days. Still have a few bugs to work out but she is road worthy. A pix from this fall...

The red sled is loving the 650 Holley. Next big spend is a new exhaust. Keeping it single and hoping to make it stealthy with a big Walker muffler.

Cleaned the garage and got a photo opp.

Does anyone have a source for the two wings nuts and hold down bracket I am missing for this jack assembly?

I have one that was in the trunk of my '68. It's yours for $10 plus shipping if you want it. I am in Missouri.

Does this count? I am watching a netflix series called Hunters and saw what I think is a '68 300 Vert. Anyone here own it?

I drove the 300 down the road today. I bet I put a whole half mile on it! 1st time in 30 years on the road under her own power. I need to take it to muffler shop, get the turn signals working and it should be ready for inspection.

Not yet... I know you recommended we do so when we had the chance. Call it living dangerously. :D

The carb on the 300 just wasn't wanting to play fair so we are going to try a freshly rebuilt Holley 600 CFM.

Love your car! OP - Finding a local parts source...usually NAPA in my area, can help. That pump is common and if you find an old Mopar guy behind the counter it will pay off.

We did as you suggest re the bearings, etc. I have not touched the trim...that's a good tip. Gotta say, this site is awesome! So many helpful folks here .

I think you just sold two cans. One for the bezel...maybe, and one for the color match that runs thru the middle of the grill. Thanks for the tip!

Thank to you and PH27L7 for the detail. It's cool finding the history of this beast.

I think I am going to start there. That paint is so thin I can see primer though it in places. My Dad had two Mason badges stuck on either side of the "300" and that residue may not come off without the paint.

This car was built on 12-15-68 per the VIN tag. It may have been one of the last cars down the line that year.

Greetings and questions... The "bezel" for the taillights is Silver on this car and looks like crap. Is it a hard job to pull it for painting? Or, should I leave it alone since I think it's OEM. I am trying to stay rock stock but that thing is fugly. Also, the other 300s I've seen on this site...
