Why it matters

In 1969 the Charger R/T could be ordered with the 426 Hemi, and a four-speed manual gearbox made the car rarer still. An auction catalogue citing the National Hemi Owner's Association counts 207 Charger R/T Hemis built with the four-speed for 1969.

Independent counts (e.g. engine and colour) are never combined into a calculated figure. Surviving examples are never presented as original production.

History

The Charger was built at Dodge's Hamtramck Assembly Plant in Michigan. One catalogued four-speed Hemi R/T was assembled there on 18 October 1968 and is described as retaining its matching engine and gearbox.

Catalogue descriptions list heavy-duty options on such cars, including the Super Trak Pak Dana 60 rear axle and power front disc brakes.

Identification guide

How to tell an original from a replica or later conversion.

The catalogue describes the car as an authentic 'J-Code' Charger R/T Hemi, with the VIN (XS29J9B...) stamped on the engine and gearbox to match. The fender tag, broadcast sheet and a Galen Govier history report are the documents cited to support authenticity.
