Any idea how many MM1 or bronze metallic chargers they made in 68
68 charger colors
- Thread starter davjeffrey
- Start date
Well, although not exact science, but there were roughly 5% of the 258 cars on the 68 Charger registry that originally came as MM1 bronze.

Ok
thank you. I have a 68 Rt and am looking at selling it. Would like to get a value on the vehicle. I would consider it a good driver.
Numbers matching engine/trans? Fender tag & broadcast sheet? Damage/rust? Modified?

Bronze on a 68 is beyond rare. I drove them when new and thru 1986 as drivers, and I have owned many. But i have seen only one Bronze Charger, in 1978 in Phoenix.

Without factory records, there is no way to know color distribution for 1968 especially if we rely on personal observation and memory.
As far as I know, the MM1 was a '67-'68 offering, although I have spoken to someone I met at Carlisle that said his '66 Chrysler was an original MM1 car.
EDIT: After a little research with PPG factory chips the MM1 appears to have been available from 66-68.

Anyone know where I could find a 340 AAR Cuda motor? I have a project I am working on.

I really can’t decide if I should sell the charger and focus on the cuda.
Looks like birthday #53 coming up
What's odd is that it's an ordered R/T but no designation for either receiving a bumblebee stripe or deleting it.

Does the gender tag not describe the rt stripe?
Under the S to the right of MM1 there should be some code number for black, white, red, or stripe deleted. That would be interesting to see what the broadcast sheet would have designated for your car. I know a guy that has a 68 R/T since '82 and his sheet says black stripe, but the fender tag says stripe delete. I'm sure things like that happened more than we know.

As you can see there is a B on the left of the MM1 does that help?
That's for black upper door frame color.
