How many Hemi's did they produce that year? I was looking at a restored Red '68 Hemi on ebay at lunch today. If wanted to work until 90 I could own it lol. :D
 
Bob,can't really say,or I don't really know... For Sure... Found this online,if you can believe it, production numbers sounds right,but the rest dosen;t.

Check the weight for a 383 car,than a Hemi car.. Oops.

1968 Plymouth Road Runner Production
Model Number Body/Style Number Body Type & Seating Factory Price Shipping Weight Total Production
DR2-M RM21 2 Dr Coupe - 6P $2,870 3,405 lbs 29,240
DR2-M RM23 2 Dr Hardtop Coupe - 6P $3,034 3,400 lbs 15,359

jonw; there was a build sheet at onetime or another,if your not the original owner,someone before you might have found it. They did hide them in some strange places..

Finding a Mopar, Chrysler, Dodge or Plymouth Broadcast Sheet Carchaeology 101.

The most common places to find build sheets are:
In the seat springs of the rear seat back cushion
In the seat springs of the rear seat bottom cushion
In the seat springs of the front bucket seat backs, behind the plastic or metal seat back cover
In the seat springs of the front seat bottom cushion
Under the carpet, commonly on the driver's side in front of the front seat, but I've found them on the passenger side (common with Hamtramck cars) and under the rear compartment carpet (commonly on the driver's side with St. Louis cars and later M-body and F-body cars, though I've seen them on the passenger's side as well)
Taped to the top or the back of the glove box liner
Taped to the heater core under the dash

The most uncommon places to find them are:
Stuffed in the headliner above the driver's seat (found in a St. Louis car)
In between the gas tank and the rubber gas tank mat (Los Angeles car)

Keep looking it's most likely there...:thmbsp:
 
Quote: How many Hemi's did they produce that year?
CB.
My best guesstimate is around 810+, I can't tell you how many were 4speeds,and how many were auto.....

Found this video done by TNN,this car is the same as mine except it's a 4 speed and has that red stripe down the side.:thmbsp:

Yeah CB, ole Norm was quite the innovator back in the day. I loved those GSS440 Darts. Liked the 440 cars better than his Hemi version. I remember there was a CP dealer in Minnesota that built Cudas like that also. Norm,and the CP dealer were the first with the tri-power 340's before the factory did it. Can't remember there name. Heres a link with some more history on the cars,and driver for Norm.
