Super Rare 1968 Charger RT Powered By A 426 Hemi 

There might be cars that go faster, handle and stop better, but none of them will ever be, look or sound as cool as a 68 Hemi R/T Charger.

Tesla can never duplicate that experience.

laughed out loud seeing the cameraman get launched back the second some power was put into it lol

My first car was a 68 R/T Charger. 2 owner car .1977 was the year. Plenty of stories I have about the time .

This car is immaculate.. 68-70 Chargers will always be my favorite Mopar and car in general. God willing I will have mine someday 🙏

Originally nicknamed the elephant because of the sheer size of the engine, actually. Fantastic car and refreshing to see a pedigreed car actually being driven, as opposed to merely stored somewhere safe. Nothing - I mean *nothing* - sounds like a 426 hemi at full song. - Ed on the Ridge

Bought my 68 Charger R/T new and still have it.

I like how he opens the hood and the whole top end is aluminum heads/ intake. Lol probably runs better then a factory 426

Finally a REAL HEMI!

So Beautiful. 1968 Charger. 🎸🎸🎸⛽⛽🐱

Holy smokes I’m sitting on the couch watching this and when you kicked it down I felt like I got sucked back into the couch. That’s one hell of a Beautiful machine you have. The nicest 68 I have seen. 👍👍 wow

I've read that the base engine for the '68 Charger R/T was the 440 Magnum, and the optional engine was the Elephant 426 Hemi.. I once drove one of these cars with the 440 Magnum and it could really scoot down the road. I can only imagine what one with a Hemi could do.

Growing up we owned a 68’ I was a little kid and didn’t understand the significance of the car, mom drove it mostly but people stared and point, sometimes we got mobbed by people that asked about it, wanted to buy it,wanted to race against it, tried to steal it ect’ it started to get unnerving it was like driving the Batmobile around mom traded it in for a olds 98 Holliday coup which was a very quality car 455 rocket 👍but we miss the charger and wonder where it wound up.

This car is a 1 of 4 already. The hemi makes it a 1 of 1.

It's so nice to see a car with real horsepower! None of that electronical BS, like you said that's real raw American horsepower naturally aspirated balls to the wall baby

That's a nice one, came back to see it again. My brother bought a Charger in 1968 with his bonus when he returned from Vietnam. 😊

This is my EXACT dream car

4:50.."I dont want to smoke the tyres..."... 5:00 *smokes tyres* 🤣 Epic! Fantastic! 😁

There isn't enough road for that car. Enough safe road anyway. Its awesome.

A black 68 Dodge Charger keeps reminding me about Bill Hickman in BULLITT

That was awesome !!! Nice 68 r/t !!! I had a 1968 r/t lime green charger back in 1984 I wish I still had it ! My brother had a 1969 r/t in dark metallic green with a 383 ! I love those car's my favorite year's and car 68 & 69 charger r/t

You lucky mutha. That is my dream car. For 40 years. What a gem

5:00 Well.....so much for being nice to the tires and wheels!! 😂😂😂 Gorgeous car in sinister triple black with that monster Hemi rumbling under the hood.

I would luv to have a 68 69 or70 hemi charger RT

Thumbs up just for the opening shot alone, which was badass.

What a car. Simply awesome!

Possibly the coolest car ever made... GOD I love this thing! AND THAT NOISE!!!🤤🤤🤤

Those engines are a thing of the past unfortunately. Iv always heard of this engine and this video gave me the first dose of what their really about. All I can say is wow and I’m infatuated even more now!

I would rather have ONE of these than ten of the new chargers.

Like the fact he says no reason to beat on the car! In the end he does a burnout anyway!!👍😎

OMG that is one mean Black Betty right there. I can see myself showing off at every green light!! Whoo I see it, I claim it, I win it! Yes sir. ❤

Nice nice an 440 an or the 383 was an neck snapper too

Never been in a hemi car did take a spin in a 70 Challenger 440 six-pak car. Big block torque just can't beat it!

The sound of those Hemi mufflers are music to my ears. I was lucky to have owned a '69 Charger R/T that needed a bunch of work. Should have kept it of course ☹

omg what a sweetie i wiil always be a mopar guy owning 2 challengers 71 74 and a 66 coronet only i with hemi a 58 imperial with 392 in high school shop we put glass packs on it lol

Damn would love to have this car

I don't want to beat on the car, like doing a burnout. Then does the mother of all burnouts. NICE ! ! !

What a sexy car

Upon returning from his Army time in Vietnam my uncle went to buy one but the insurance was double the cost of the 440 Magnum. His R/T had the 440. Blue with white vinyl top. I remember riding in the car as a youngster. His family owned it until 1981 or ‘82. A stranger approached him and offered cash for it and packing to move out of state he sold it on a bill of sale receipt. Good thing he did because two weeks later he was approached by leo who tracked the R/T back to him. Seems the Charger was used as a get a way car used in bank robberies in the Bay Area and was eventually found abandoned after another successful escape. Uncle was cleared due to bill of sale and alibi of on being on guard on duty at Walla Walla prison during the robbery dates. He had a nice ‘57 Bel Air too.

"I don't want to burn the tires." hehe

Saw that, felt the power, drove me back to yesteryear and the greatest rush of my life. And yes I was born in the early 60s, grew up owning, driving and ultimately being all things Mopar crazy, wouldn't have it any other way. Love is one thing, however lust is what I feel for that piece of muscle history and the more I look at that car the more I would sell my mom to get it , sorry mom, I do love 💕 you. CAMERON.

Faaa amigo que Nave tenes!!!!! El Dodge Charger es puro poder!!!! Saludos desde Argentina

Absolutely perfect!

The crickets in the end killed it.

Bugger hooks lol!! TY for the point of ''dont touch the paint'' a pet peeve of mine.

Had a friend in highschool with a 69 roadrunner that had an elephant motor and factory stickers that said factory test model and not intended for passenger use

This car is epic, a classic in the auto world.

and also doubles as an awesome crop duster ... 5:02 😍👍

I Had the 69 383 4 on the floor and still think it is the altimate style dodge ever made

Good thing you are not being aggressive. Getting new tires is a good reason to burn up the old ones in my opinion as well. Thanks for the ride.

Most beautiful car ever made

My dream car!

My first car was a 67 charger, second 70 Challenger and third a 73 charger SE,, have 9 classic cars now only one Mopar 45 dodge pickup very rare ,, but I have a bad ass 68 Torino that would out run all the Mopars l owned, it's the coupe, really resamples the 69 roadrunner

"No need to be too aggressive on the car." Proceeds to do a burn out right after saying that😂😂😂

Makes my heart race.

thank god for straight roads!

Awesome Machine!

Dammnnn !!! Just once in my life would I love to drive a hemi powered car... my brother had a 69 RT 440 6PACK car in the 70's by was to young to drive at the time

Holy buckets…these old muscle mopars take off like missiles!

Awesome car, it's funny at 3:35 when he gets on it you can see the camera man being pushed back because of the power of that elephant 😂

Doesnt wanna be aggressive continues to do a burnout🖤

Big block Hemi Beast❤

The holly grail of muscle cars the best bar none 68 charger

THE MASTER!!

Looks to me like there could be a little Barton in that engine, regardless, one beautiful car, and one hairy HEMI.

Lusting is great!!!

Не машина - а мечта!!!

Thanks !

I'd give a kidney just to hear that thing rev infront of me.

426 Hemi 🤤

"I don't want to smoke the tires.." proceeds to lay down 200 foot blackies..

That is very nice I myself have had a few of those 68 9 charger one of them was the 383 4 speed the rest automatic the one of the 69 Charger Factory Orange from the factory sure wish I'd have that one or any of them of one I had was a 69 RT that I bought for a hundred dollars they were never that nice they were just old cars at people are going to get rid of anyway this was back when you could find him sitting in the local junk yards out of all the old cars I've had those got the most attention you couldn't go to the grocery store get gas or any go anywhere without somebody coming up to you and saying hey man your car is cool or they would want to buy it now if it was for sale would love to have another one just a 383 automatic a driver but I can't touch him they're so expensive now

For some reason I thought it would be a little faster than that. ……….JK. Beautiful car

Rewound this Video like 30x's in a row Ha HAHA hA ha....... I luv it.

Great car no doubt

We're not going to roast pavement" stomps the gas" miss my 68" SE power steering power brakes, power windows (hate em pulling window motors out fo Newports,furys ext ) original A/C car, matching no# 383, 323 torque flight , had a built 383 030 904 heads, monster cam that made the head lights not want to open (vac) neutral lil gas" open sesame , had a TCI 2500 stall cheetah manual shift valve body solid motor mounts, 4:10, 4:88 center chunks, pull out the axles drop the drive shaft, to swap ezpz, but 4:88"s was like first first, & first, broil meats down the street" don't miss lashing the valve train " that car had a reputation on and off the track, the biggest mistake I ever made in my entire lifesince I pick that car up in the 80s for next to nothing and now they're worth a ton of money$$$$$$, white , white interior painted red metal flake stripe, wanted to do B5 blue paint my 2 nd car , first car teen ager was a 70" cuda 3 on the floor clutch car 6 cylinder , slower than ketchup, but in great shape 950$ yup" for a complete running car they needed nothing, was going to do it 340 motor swap paint louvers and the go wing but found the charger and had to have it" your video brings back fond memories that you sir" I needed that" wanted to do a 671 blower but it was fast enough , nowadays I would have did twin turbo, born under the hood supercharger, for sure ,

Nice.....

WOW RUNS GOOD AS A VW

Is this a factory stock 426 hemi?😳 i knew they were powerful but i didnt expect this.

fk'n beautiful! i don't blame you brother, i'd baby dat thang too. all #americanmuscle

Awesome

It will be the last car I buy when I retire.

I Like It!

It must of Ben a 4 speed car ...I seen the yellow reverse lite on the dash down low

See you in my dreams queen Mopar👍

What a Monster ....how fast is it on 100M/ h ?

Worries about the paint being damaged by people's hands. . . Proceeds to blow the tires off 😂

How much does such a beauty cost, if you are lucky enough to buy one ?

3:36-4:04-4:15-5:01

Has it hawwspowa? Yes. Can you show me?

OH NO! it's a corner!

Hemis for the street are vastly over-rated. The 440 Six-Pack outperforms it in almost every way.

For such originality it’s a shame about that stupid shifter and large tac with aftermarket gauges

I never realized there were so few 68 hardtops built. What was the draw of the vinyl top?

383 Dodge Dart!

I just crapped in pants 💩👍

Looks like Wisconsin

Where can i order one 😭

🥰🥰🥰🥰♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Want you I think U missed the window cause movies have made price through the rouph
