1968 Dodge Charger R/T 2 Door Sports Hardtop

The Fender Tag is read from left to right and from bottom to top.

To each letter of the alphabet belongs the number under it. If there is nothing stamped it doesn't have an option belonging to that group. It is the same with the first eight digits in row 3 as with the last three letters in that row.
