Hey all!
New member here from the South West... Namely Swindon. Just bought a 1968 Dodge Charger 7.2L V8 440 big block in R/T colours and logos (not a original R/T unfortunately). Before you ask yes it is the one from North Yorkshire with an eye watering price tag
but it's in pristine condition and well... It's shiny and I wanted it
Waiting on delivery now and trying to sort out insurance so I can get her on the road ASAP.
Does anyone have a rough idea what it would go for market value? Brentacre want an agreed valuation, I'm not expecting anywhere near what I paid for it but it would be nice to get a rough estimate. Cheers and enjoy the photos

Wow! very nice. You're in good company down your neck of the woods - lots of members down Swindon way.
Re Insurance valuations, I'd contact Tony Oksien (
tonyoksien@hotmail.com ), the MMA's official valuer
Check this thread too...

Tony can provide a valuation letter that you can present to any insurance company for use with an agreed value policy.
or... if you're planning on taking the car to Santa Pod at the end of the month - Mopar EuroNats - he can do a valuation there for you.
God luck

Cheers for the welcomes and thanks for the advice Rob, I've sent Tony an email. Charger should be arriving early next week so fingers crossed the insurance is sorted by then
I'm like a kid waiting for Christmas right now

Welcome.
Very nice looking Charger. I hope you haggled on the price.
Hopefully my 68 will look as nice one day!
