HP = High Performance Pics of those stamping would be helpful - they might be originals and poorly stamped H =383 9 = 1969 E= Los Angeles factory 164108 = serial number Trans seems to be a "match" missing the leading "9" (the model year) and "F" is actually "E" Block seem too much commonality...

That's either: 6 22 June 22nd 1969 or 6 2 2 June 2nd 1969, 2nd shift ....I think....

I'd suggest you check the VIN stamping on the block (and transmission on the passengers' side) and compare to the dash VIN - to determine if they are original to your car. Edit: Add reference image lifted,cropped and scaled from Hamtramck Historical

Invalid casting number - possibly 2468130-8? -130 is a 383. Maybe look on the other side for the casting date - should be right below the casting number. Better yet, look at the pad under the distributor for the letter-code before "383": D=68, E=69, F=70, G=71; or VIN down by pan rail if '69...

Well - obviously. Here's a few links. Have fun. filler tube Tank grommet Trunk floor boot 9/24 Edit to lose the redundant links and add info from the Mitchell for OEM part number searching. There are numerous other sources where this info can be found by a simple, free search.

R/P/HP on the pad? (2bbl vs. 4bbl / G vs. H) Edit - Either: XP29G9B346134 or XP29H9B346134 was the car then. A quick google was empty for both.

What size engine is this? We can complete the prospective VIN for search/publish purposes: X_29_9B346134 Have you found the "E(cu.in.)" on the upper engine pad? - a 1969 casting date is often insufficient.

The "B" in the engine VIN stamp is the code for the plant that the car was built at - Hamtramck. In front of the B should be a numeral to indicate the year; 9=69, 0=70... maybe faintly stamped? Might need to scrape paint. They built Chargers at Hamtramck in '69, so it's certainly possible...

Geez - what a find. On those screws, I would try lots of Blaster/vice grips from underneath to get them turning/more Blaster/extract from top. Here's a big ol' SWAG at what I think I might see? View of the back is usually better. Edit: Maybe J45 "Hood Pins" preceding M21? A J42 Pistol Grip...

I'm sure he does - there's a wealth of information available to all of us over at Hamtramck Historical - which is where this image was lifted from and cropped.

Similar - but definitely not the same. The letters on the R/T-500 panel are have very short mounting pins that are bucked down (crushed - like a machine rivet) to clinch them to the thin aluminum trim panel. This decorative panel assembly then sits tight to the body's structural, painted tail...

In case the car is still around. Around Des Moines IA, I guess. 1968 mopar 383

From another thread pic

@MMorgan A gent over on Abodies indicates the 'E8' is a Spring Sport Special package Code 368 for Barracuda. Barracuda E8 on abodiesonly (E-bodies came about in 1970) The included chart showed the options that package added. Possibly compare this with what you see on the actual vehicle?

Simply should not exist. I guess never-say-never with Mopar, but I'd guess it's a misread of a "G" or "L" engine? Cropped image lifted from Hamtramck Historical; 383 was largest you could "specify" in a Sat or Sport Sat; shaded boxes = "not available"

Possible, but I don't see reference in the parts - maybe the Mopar parts manual would differ. Only thing I see is Hemi and Non for the gauge and that's the diameter of the pick-up tube and fuel lines I believe.

Original 273/318 w/ AC in '68 would have been a 'thermal drive' clutch 2536 675, and 2863 228 fan. (Edit: - grain of salt on this combo...seemingly a mis-match?) A '68 440 w/ AC would have been a 'thermal drive' clutch 2658 456, and 1985 513 fan (Edit: Mitchell disagrees with Hurd and I think...

The original radiator would have been 2898 041 (w/ 318 max cool/AC). If it had been a 440 car, the max cooling would have been 2949 054; if 383 or 440 with A/C, then 2898 047. I don't 'think?' there were vapor return lines in '68?? Pic of fender tag or broadcast sheet if available? Edit: Only...

In '68, the Dodges had the round ones higher at the panels' midlines. The Plymouths (A/B/C) were all low - more centered on the bumper ridge plane (except the rear ones on wagon's were a bit higher). In '69, all of the lines/models went "low". I'd have to go googling to see what...

As stated: buckets were standard on GTX and Sport Satellite in '68; console or buddy seat as options. Your fender tag would read "P6X" under "TRM" (trim)... P=premium grade; 6=vinyl buckets; X=Black. On the top-most lowercase alpha line, "a" would be blank below it indicating neither console...
