Goldie 68 Hemi Ember Gold

1968 Ember Gold Hemi Road Runner built November 6, 1967

General Description

Ember Gold (J1) Hemi Road Runner (J Code) build on November 6, 1967 and sold to original owner on November 13, 1967 at Interstate Motors in Bristol, TN. Purchased the car in January 2018 from prior owner who had it almost 20 years. One of the prior owners has documented all owner titles and some other ownership documentation for each owner including copy of MSO from Chrysler Corp to interstate motors to allow the car to be titled. Its rear end gears are over 4:1 ratio so it runs up considerable RPM even at highway speeds. I have read in blogs that the low speed rear causes one to get passed by lowly modern cars on the open road.

I hope to keep it in as good a condition as it is now. Underside is painted to match body color.

Look's good on top and on bottom. Mine will be bed lined on the bottom. Should act like the mud they put on them back in the day. Keep on Running Runner.
 
Looks awesome. Also looks like we might be neighbors. Do you know of any good Mopar mechanics nearby ?
 
Their is a mopar club in tampa. I am going to join them when the car is finished. If you get a hold of them they may have some insight on who work's on the older car's in your area. I grew up in Brandon and Gibsonton. Moved to lake wales after my service in Nam. What kind of issues are you having or it just general work needing done. Russ.
 
Well you can talk private message's also in conversation's. Go to your call out name on the right side and a page will come down pic conversation's and pick whom you would like to send a message to. That is awesome to have a car that has been in the family so long.
