68 RR authenticity

You can not have a title to the car if it is not what you say it is. Like I tell every one with the car I got. Yes it dose not have the finder tag but all the body numbers match the vin number. The problem is over the years someone swapped the motor and trans also the rear end. But the motor is a roadrunner. I looked every where for a runner and their where rip offs on the enter web. So I said if I could walk up and touch it and the title was good then it was a runner. This car was owned buy only to other owner's. I have the paper trail with the title. Sold in Alabama till it was bought and brought to fla. By second owner. Well if their that hard to sell on it being a runner then they probably don't have the money your asking for the car. Someone will buy it that really want's a runner. Russ.

It should have 11" brakes and hd rear springs in the back if it is a RR. Also another clue is the exhaust hangers above the rear axle. One side will be welded on and the other side will be bolted on. Will also have sway bar tabs on the lower control arms. A lot of small details are overlooked when people are cloning RR's.

I think so as well.

Are these items true for both the 68 & 69? Or just the 68 we are talking about in this thread? The two are very similar. You really do have me curious as to how the restoration was done on my car now.

Yes 68-69 and pretty sure 70 but they are all bolt on clues.True the sway bar tabs are welded to the lower control arms but the arms bolt in.

Things I didn't know, thanks!

That car is probably in better shape than mine was so someone that is really interested will give you what you are asking. If they go into looking at what it cost to do a total restore on the car.

68 the vents were on the side, 69 were on the top

all 68 hoods were also non-functional i.e. didnt do anything, but looked killer?
