This is a genuine, unmolested Hemi Road Runner. #s matching, born with drivetrain. Original metal with a $45,000 paint job. Mechanics were completely rebuilt by Mopar expert Kilpatrick Engine ($35,000). Only 1,109 Road Runners were born with a Hemi in 1968. This one is an outstanding driver; it has rare power steering and power disc brakes too. The car has 61,121 actual miles. A very fussy customer/collector bought it in all original condition. He had it restored while retaining its original components. He would go out of his way to rebuild parts instead of replacing them. He has put 1,000 miles on the car. He says as good as the car looks; it drives even better!
EXTERIOR: The original paint was stripped to bare metal. It was taken down to a shell including the entire front clip was removed. We have photo documentation. All original metal with minimal repairs. Every inch is laser straight, no issues at all. The panels fit precisely. The original B5 Blue was reapplied better than new. It is polished like a mirror, no issues. The black hood patch was correctly painted. Door jambs are spotless. Rechromed bumpers. The grill and tail panel look new. The door handles are new, stainless trim is polished. Windshield was replaced. All the weatherstrips and seals were replaced. It's rolling on 15 inch painted steel rims, wider in back with poverty hubcaps. They are wrapped in radial BFG tires.
INTERIOR: Door panels, upholstery, carpet and headliner look like new. The dash was apart and restored. The bezels, knobs, heater controls are all excellent. It's not cut or broken. Factory in dash tachometer and Am 8-track. Original glovebox liner with ink stamp. All the bits and pieces are very nice- armrests, visors, steering wheel etc. Complete set of seatbelts. It does have Cobalt oil and temp gauges under the dash.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The original born with, vin # matching Hemi. The 426 was built by Mopar expert Kilpatrick Engine. It was completely rebuilt; spec sheet and invoices are included. Rebuilt original dual 4 barrel carbs. It was upgraded with TTI headers. Original chrome on the air cleaner. Every component looks like new, everything was installed properly. Detailed out with correct plug wires, hoses and clamps and a Mopar reproduction battery. The engine bay is pristine metal painted as slick as the car. Original fender tag, # on core support matches. 2 very desirable factory options include power steering and brakes.

Original 727 Torqueflite automatic was completely rebuilt by Kilpatrick. Original torque converter was rebuilt and reused. Rebuilt driveshaft. Rebuilt heavy duty Dana 60 with 3.54 Sure Grip gears. All original rust free floors, frame rails, rockers etc. It's a factory undercoat car, the bottom was cleaned and freshened up with some black paint.
Conclusion: This is one of a small amount of Hemi Road Runners that still exist and actually have the motor they were born with. This one is also rare to have power steering and brakes. It's a "right" car, no surprises other than good ones! Excellent investment, I remember selling these for $35,000 and that seemed like a lot at the time. Lol
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car make an appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car, your admission will be refunded and you will be given a 1 year membership.

Let us know if you have any questions or feedback. Thanks for watching!
I wish I could afford that beautiful RR. Remembering my beloved 69 RR when I was a teenager. Thanks for the memories.
LUV IT! Back in my day a boyfriend had a Trans Am w a 455 cu. So some black dude pulls up beside with his hemi Road Runner on Southern State Parkway, Long Island and blew us away! Closest muscle car I could afford, a 1972 Duster 340 w 4 on the floor. Me the old lady sold it. Bad Toni! The things we regret looking back, MOPAR MUSCLE cars!
Gorgeous Roadrunner ! Great color too !
It sure is! 😎
Paint Code QQ-1 ELECTRIC BLUE.
Beautiful 68
Beautiful car If I was in the market for a Road Runner that is exactly the one I would want.
Perfect example of a 1960's Muscle Car. Biggest Engine in the least expensive Body.
If I had this car, the first thing I do is replace the wheels and tires. Other than that, it looks stunning!
In 1968, a Road Runner with the Hemi option was an additional $714. That equals about $5,700 today.
I have a 2002 Ford E350 Box Truck and it has the 7.3 Liter Diesel Engine which was a $5,000 option.
Wow!! Power steering and power brakes on a Hemi car?? Beautiful car! My guesstimate, I’ll say a modest 150k. That’s a steal, imo.
Yep....beautiful car, but for 150K+ it should have a 4-speed as listed, not that grandma 727 auto trans
Haven’t checked yet, but my guess is $120 - $150K
Killer street racer back in the day. Should have “beeped” the horn.
Surprised he didn't!
Yes the 426 HEMI is a super engine. In retrospect he should have beeped the horn. I wonder if someone makes a reproduction of the "beeb-beeb" horn?
1968 only year for round marker lights👍🏽
One year for the roadrunner that is one nice car if I must say so myself
Beep beep and you Are out of the batcave, gourgeus car My favorite colour, such a superb car, awsome stunning and fast, thanks Jay grams president of volo auto museum from tom your friend always 🤩,
👍👍
Absolutely gorgeous! Knocked another one out of the park Jay! 👍
Thanks! 😎
A buddy of mine bought a blue one just like that when he got out of the military in 1969 it was the old model new stock he ran into the back of a semi fall asleep he had rawhide boys ranch rebuild the car it was like new again minus the transmission was a four-speed with a 383 coyote package.
If i ever get the money, i'd take it home...WOW
The round marker lights were used only in 1968.
Only 68 on the round marker lights..
1 year on the round marker lights. 68 only
It's an Automatic so you can let your Girlfriend drive it and not worry what gear she's in, for example 20mph, 4th gear and going up a steep hill trying to acellerate thinking if you just push harder on the gas pedal, the Car should go faster.
My girlfriend would be lucky to sit in the passenger seat let alone drive it.
Beautiful.
Awesome car 🚗
Nice Blue Color.
Russel is a first class photografer, My wife Dorthe worked in the movies for 29 years now retiree, she say he is good, i love your shirt 😎 cool 😎 😎
That is very impressive!! 😮😎
one lucky man gets this one this one just to cool
Colfax Wisconsin is 20 minutes from me.
Wow, what a nice Road Runner love the colour. Should have left the exhaust stock as you won't be running this car on the dragstrip. Seems odd not to see bucket seats in this car. I wonder how many came equipped with this type of bench seat?
No buckets in 1968
Most of them had the split bench seat.
My 68 RR, that I bought in 1972 had a factory installed front bench style seat. My 68 had a 383 hemi, 4 speed stick shift tranny. On some weekends I took it on the racing track of Detroit Dragway. Had to be careful about damage to the engine, trans, and body during racing down the track. It was my daily driver to high school and work after school and weekends. Wish I still had that cool baby. 😎
Now it looks like a trailer queen
PS My wife Dorthe Was a colorgrader, and cutter and Rush print special, we Are in to movies and cars, our son Jimmi grew up in a movie theater, Even at home we had home movies, super 8
Thanks very much for the kind words from your wife Tom! 😃
@@VoloMuseumAutoSales PS valoue your friendship very much 🤩 🤩
I'll take it!
Me too!! 😜
Should have left in survivor condition
Looks like the battery cable is too short at 10:24
Fuel line is touching the rad hose at 10:51
Agreed! No way was that the way an OEM starter cable went. That absolutely should be replaced, IMMEDIATELY, because it is carrying a lot of current and is a fire hazard.
Wow sounds like a Mouse in a podracer from mos eysley spaceport 😎 😎 cool car 🤟 😎
Your description says 4 speed??
That was corrected now.
$156,998.
Considering the condition of the car and how many were made I think it's a good price?
It’s not perfect. I swear I saw a stone in one of the tire grooves.
😜 Should have pointed that out! lol!!
I thought the price would be closer to 500K
The "new" Hemi's under the Dodge Challenger hood sort-of took the steam out of the old Hemi classic's? More HP and they run just fine on today's no-lead gas.
68 Hemi RR have sold pre-covid almost exclusively in the $50k-$80k range.
Nice expensive bird
Kinda looks like B7 blue
🤤
Uhh, excuse me sir. No drooling on the cars please. 😜🤣
I think you should get us a price

@@VoloMuseumAutoSales so why don’t you just tell us the price.
@@tracyraley4003 He told you, go to the web site for the price. Geez.
@@tracyraley4003 He doesn’t tell you the price here because the price may change. He wants you to go on the web site to see what the price starts out at. Didn’t you follow directions in school? Pay attention!
why do you start some cars and not all the cars
This car has a starting & backing out segment starting at 11:51 . Very rarely do we not include it, are you referring to a specific car?
.3
The speedometer says 120..lol
Lol
Lol
Lol
Lol
A quater mile at a time.
LOL!!!!!!!
This is pure BS , if anyone buys this car for what their asking , then you deserve to be screwed over . This is why I purchased my collector car somewhere else . You might as well call them volo mecum , or volo jackson !
Generally, Auctions are a true reflection of what people are willing to pay for a Car at that moment. I follow Mecum Auctions and look online at 5,000 Cars per year along with how much they are selling for.
Not that far off Bubba. They left a little wiggle room of course. One problem, he is over selling it. He should shut up and let us see for ourselves. Car is worth maybe 120,’s . Not mid 130’s. My drop son
