The GTX is off to final body work, prep, & paint.
And the ugliest trailer ever.

My dad and I built some sweet "Pro-street" Mopar models when I was a kid. Fond memories. In for pics man. I can't wait to see it finished.
Nice! My dad is the original owner of a 1968 Roadrunner that we still enjoy. What all is done to the GTX?
Looks like a very solid car, what color is going on?
I'm gonna guess purple. :rockon:
Regardless....it'll require a lot of paint...that's a big car. Can't wait to see it....gonna be badass.

this vehicle reminds me of the punisher. It would be cool to see that logo on the roof in ghost form. haha
I will always love the big body mopars.
Sorry, I've been busy. Here are some answers.
The colour will be gloss black with a satin black hood. The body is very straight so it should look good.
The engine is a 69 440 bored .030 over. It's not the original engine but it is the correct year. It has a comp xtreme energy 268 cam with matched springs, about 9.8:1 compression ratio, dual quad Edelbrock intake, 600 CFM Eddy carbs, Hooker headers, 727 trans with a TCI 2800 rpm convertor, 3:23 rear gears, and 2 1/2" exhaust.

The gears are a little on the short side but all good things in time. 
Nice GTX. Ive got a 68 Charger R/T up on the rotisserie getting the full treatment. I cant wait until Im at the paint and bodywork stage...your car is motivation.
nice ride toretto.. jk, cant wait to see pics.
Nice!!! Me and my dad are restoring a 68 gtx. I would love to get to the paint and body work stage lol post up some pics when its done. What are your plans for the suspension? Were trying to do a bolt on pro touring setup, I don't want to hack up the car but want it to drive less like a truck lol.
Side note the damn 4spd trans in that car is by far the heaviest I've installed.
