RARE 1969 Dodge Charger R/T SE - Will It Run And Drive 1500 Miles? Hot Rod Power Tour 2023 Road Trip

[@joebacarella2829]

I was born in 1962, I lived this era, and, Dodge and Plymouth ruled, when I was 16 you could get a nice Charger or Cuda for $1,500, all day long, in 1977, $1,500 was a lot of money, I worked at a gas station, when we used to pump gas, it was 62 cents a gallon, I made $65 a week, you had to save a long time to come up with $1,500. In my 30`s I bought a 1970 road runner, I did the body work myself, had it painted Limeliight, new tires and wheels, new H pipe dual exaust with headers, rebuilt 383 with a 727 trans, got a divorce and had to sell it, I loved that car, never been able to afford another one since, Mopars are through the roof these days. I bet my road runner is worth 50 - 60k today, loved the video, brought back memories, I love the Charger green, is that F8, I never seen a green vynal top, most were black, this is a pretty rare car, SE, air, I love the green on green.

[@IcelanderUSer]

NJ is the last state where it’s illegal to pump your own gas. Although I hear that’s coming to an end. Are there any other places in the US where it’s optional to have someone pump your gas? Back in the 80s some stations had it for premium fuel.

[@tomwinkle1597]

$500 when gas crunch hit.

[@paulpennington-mv7rt]

Forest Green.

[@roadwarrior1450]

That car is a keeper. When I got my license in the 70's U could pick 1 off these for a few hundred dollars. Now clapped out one's are 20 grand. Insane.

[@peterphillips1493]

Crazy the amount of money being asked for these old cars.when I was a kid my neighbor wanted to sell me a 69 Camaro for 100 bucks because it had a broken shock mount from the dreaded air shocks

[@600wheel]

Completely different type of car but I imported a Mitsubishi Lancer evolution from Japan in 2010 for $10,000 I live in Canada which means I can do it 10 years sooner than the U.S can now that that car is able to be imported into the United States it’s worth close to $30,000 and when I bought it it was absolutely pristine now it has the dreaded Evo roof rot that happens that I wasn’t aware of when I bought it that’s why it’s only worth $30,000….only. The automotive resale market has gone nuts since Covid like everything else. I remember in the 80s late 60s Camaros being less than $1000. In 2005 I bought a rust free completely mint completely stock 1989 fox body for $5000 now you can get a roller with mismatch body panels for $5000 so I did the smart thing and put $80,000 into it. Look left👈

[@wolfxblade4936]

Agreed that there so overpriced now, it’s my dream to own one but I haven’t been lucky at all, it’s rough

[@ionracer24]

Very true

[@GeorgiaBoyd-u5m]

A clapped out one with 426 hemi maybe ,.....lol I had 69 super bee 440 3 deuces ,....... lol Had a chance to buy a 69 road runner 426 hemi 1500 bucks but did not have that much bought a 68 road runner for 300

[@jesterr7133]

I had a small part in a similar revival. There is no greater feeling. My mom's neighbor had a son who fell in Viet Nam. He had a nearly brand new '67 Cougar. It never moved again after he left for the war. He left it in the drive way, but put cardboard in the windows, and put it under a tarp. The car was immaculate, and had less than 40K original miles on it. I tried many times to buy it from her over the years, but she would not sell it. In 2009, she sold it to another neighbor for $100. I guess he came at the right time, lol. I worked in an auto parts store at the time, and he came in buying parts for a '67 Cougar. When I asked him where he got it, my heart sank, lol. I sold him some parts, and ended up giving him a hand on it. He ended up putting about $4,000 in parts in it, but it is back on the road today, and the car is beautiful. It meant a lot for me to see it come back to life. The guy got the steal of a lifetime.

[@todddenio3200]

That reminds me of 3 58 Chevy Impala's. One was in a back yard in the town I live in and the parents refused to sell their sons car, but when the husband died the widow sold it within a few days... It turned out it was her husband who refused to sell it. Unfortunately it wasn't me who got it. It was a black 2 door hardtop with red interior, Continental kit, and the 348 tri-power. She sold it for $150 in the 90's. The other 2 were in the yard at a farm about 35 miles from here. One was a 2 bbl 283 powered green and white interior Impala 2 door hardtop and the other was a 4 bbl 348 powered black with red interior Impala convertible. I missed buying them by 1 day.

[@Musclecar1972]

All I can say is I hope you folks have better luck than I did back in 1969, I bought a brand new triple black, SE/ RT Charger, nothing but problems from day one, huge electrical issues, which were never resolved in the 2 months I owned it, it was the epitome of a true lemon. Beautiful car, just refused to stay running, even the dealership got disgusted with it, traded it on a new 1969 Yenko Camaro, and let it be someone else’s problem, and never looked back! Good Luck, will be beautiful when it’s finished. 👍

[@HHWheels]

Thank you! Sorry to hear that, but the Camaro definitely wasn't a bad choice either! Cheers! Thanks for watching!

[@RogueOne11]

I worked for more than 30 years as a car mechanic, most of the time with old cars here im Brazil, we have Charges, Darts with the 318 small block. Your video brought me lots of memories. God Bless you guys and keep you safe.

As someone who watches car videos just to listen to while gaming, this is the first video that truly had me glued to the screen. As I was watching the video, I had the idea that you were a multi-hundred thousand subscriber channel only to realize you're sub-10k. The quality and content you put into your videos speaks volumes and I guarantee you'll be in the hundreds of thousands one day. On top of that the journey you both had is quite amazing, which is heightened by the bond you share. Thank you for sharing such a superb video!

[@HHWheels]

Reading this really made my day! thank you so much for taking the time to write this comment. We put a lot of time into our videos and this means the absolute world to read this! Thank you so much!

The plus side is it'll be lighter than when new at the next car show. Very solid survivor so was it a tranula😮?

@@HHWheels just came back to see you're at 20k! Congratulations!

[@vicswanby454]

I missed power tour this year but thanks for taking me along. That charger is too good to be true. You've got a few extra passengers that are riding with you the first one is that young man that bought the car and paid the ultimate price for our freedom and your brother. The fact that you got the car signed is a cool touch also. Looks like a great time with 30,000 friends with the same goals in mind finishing the long haul and enjoying the experience is priceless! Great video and you just got a new subscriber to your channel. Looking forward to seeing you guys pickup the free car and doing something fun with it too.

[@HHWheels]

Thank you for watching!

[@briansawdo6245]

Great video! It’s nice to see you guys having fun and taking us with you. When we lived in our old house 2 years ago the neighbor across the street had a dark green r/t with the black top sitting in his garage with stuff piled all over it. He bought it out of a junkyard without the motor. Of course he wouldn’t sell it to me.

[@darrininverarity4297]

Bless that mom who never gave up on her son’s dream,she did good.

[@antoniobattle2036]

Wow!!! I truly loved watching this great adventure from start to finish. Awesomeness!!!!!

[@HHWheels]

Thank you so much! We really love this car. Thx for watching!

[@jasondrinovsky7962]

Any B body Mopar is definitely worth saving, especially an R/T and it being an SE is the icing on the cake. They are so rare, and getting harder to find. And, tougher to afford! Good luck with the project.

[@HHWheels]

Thanks for sharing!

[@Eamstr]

Glad you guys had fun! I actually went myself for the first time and had a blast. You can even see my GT500 chilling in the background at 44:58.

[@HHWheels]

Sweet! GT500🤙

[@greggstankowski5073]

Best muscle car I ever owned , 69 charger, I rebuilt the 383 with high compression pistons,the biggest cam I could get ,almost had no brakes, headers,highrise,780 dual feed double pumper with mechanical secondaries..4 speed holy crap! Loved it. But before that was my 64 GTO 389 tripower,,,,,memories

[@CRUSH71]

It's sad looking at this car and thinking about the soldier, and his mother. Glad to see this beauty getting the attention it deserves.

[@jessicawells5145]

What saved the floor pans was the factory undercoating.thats the best 25 or so dollars any one could have added to the option list!!great find, enjoy it

[@DjNikGnashers]

I'm from/in the UK, and being honest, I'm not really much of a fan of American Muscle cars, BUT ...... We did get the Dukes Of Hazard on tv here back in the 1980's and I was a massive fan, so the 69 Charger is one Yank Tank I do have love for. That is what initially got me watching this, but I have to say, the whole video was incredible, I had to watch till the end. Thank you so much for such a great piece of film, I absolutely loved it from start to end. The whole vibe, the interaction between you all, the scenery, the cars, the music, it all complements each other. I am a petrolhead of course, but being from the UK I am a fan of small fast saloons, hatchbacks and coupes, as this is what I grew up with. Currently driving a 2017 M140i tuned to 455bhp/634nm.

[@HHWheels]

Thank you so much for watching it all. It means a lot to hear that you enjoyed it! We love making videos like this, so this really seals the deal for us! Cheers from the US

[@williambrasure2504]

Best thing I found all day, have 1970 torino since 1974 , you all rock, thanks dad..great job

[@That_AMC_Guy]

The "SE" package was definitely NOT "just" a dealer option. It was very much a factory option as well. Yes, it could be added at the dealership, which is why the numbers on them are a little muddied. Regardless, all it added were Leather front seats, a Woodgrain Steering wheel, the woodgrain dash appliques, and the stainless rocker moldings and SE badges. The build sheet, or even the fender tags will tell the whole story.

[@ABRetroCollections]

This was not a factory R/T. Options were checked at the dealership to add SE features to this R/T. From the factory, you either had an R/T or SE. There was no mixing at the factory.

[@That_AMC_Guy]

@@ABRetroCollections Say WHAT?!?! If it's not a factory R/T.... then it's not an R/T. The ONLY way to get an R/T was from the factory. The dealership could NOT add R/T pieces because there are chassis parts (ie: torque boxes) that are welded-in at the factory and are only present on R/T cars. Also, the only way to get the 440 or Hemi was to step up to an R/T. Top engine in a base Charger was the non-Magnum 383 4 barrel. There are many pieces that make up an R/T car. Leaf springs, torsion bars, front skid plate; the only way to get a Dana rear was to step up to an R/T. The dealership could NOT create an R/T. BUT, they could add the SE trim pieces to the car. OR, you could order an R/T SE right from the factory with all the bits already added. The build sheet, data tag, even the VIN will tell what the car was born as. And there were three ways the car could come: 1. as an R/T 2. as an SE (SE package was available on base Chargers) 3. as an R/T with SE package. Here: www.xr793.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/1969-Dodge-Charger.pdf Read an original brochure that tells the whole story.

[@eugenepiurkowski5439]

@@ABRetroCollections Only available from the factory was the :Charger Special Edition Package" (N.A. w/426 Hemi) Code A47. at a price of $151.85. It included Leather & Vinyl Front Bucket Seats, Sport Steering Wheel, Pedals Dress-up, Deep-Dish Wheel Covers, Wood-Grain Instrument Panel, Hood Mounted Turn Signals and Light Group. In today's money, quite a bargain Back then, it was two car payments. Of course your salesman could order the SE Package on a regular or R/T for you, but they were all built at the factory. Not dealer installed options. These quotes all came from a 1969 Salesman's code and price book that I found on line. The package options also are shown in the 1969 Catalogue. What a wonderful car!

[@dirtlump]

@@ABRetroCollections You need to keep quiet because you don't know what you are talking about ! The '69 Charger R/T with the "SE" Pkg added was most definitely a FACTORY installed option making it a 1969 Charger R/T SE as denoted on both their Broadcast Build Sheet and Fender Tags by the "A47" code. NO SUCH THING as a "383" Engines 1969 Charger R/T..... because the standard Engine for thew "R/T" model was the "E86" code 440 Magnum with the only "option" up from there being the 426 Hemi.

[@joeshermenti2082]

Almost every 1969 charger I have ever seen was RT. SE

[@freddymardiceii3273]

You guys always out do yourselves and this one is no exception!!! Fantastic, and legendary video! That Charger looked like it sat at the bottom of the Titanic, but you guys are real deal!! Love you guys and your contribution to the automotive community and all things legendary!!

One of my favorite cars. Thank you rescuing it and bringing it back on the road! I saw wild Mook in the corner for a moment. Some of my favorite KZbinrs in one spot. Congratulations on getting your car signed! 🙌👍 I love it. The Power Tour videos from you, @JunkyardDigs and @flyingsparksgarage, to name just very few, make my day. These feelings of community and family literally get a hold of me through the screen. 🤗 Over here, we'd have to fight of grrens and environmental activists / extremists for even trying something like Hot Rod Power Tour. My heart wants to go immigrate to the US. My mind says it makes no sense, due to my medical needs. All the other challenges and issues I could handle, I think.

Hi. Phil from New Zealand here. I was born 1960 and love this era of cars. I'm a mechanic by trade. I have just started watching your videos and can't stop now. haha Very interesting for me...

[@splender88]

You guys have a great project car there and it's great to see a family all in it together. I'm a Charger guy I was trying to find these cars back in the 80's and it was tough then. Most of them were rust buckets then found one very good one that was out of my price range at $900 for a 70 RT with no rust and a 383. One of the biggest regrets of my life I should have found a way it needed very little even had a luggage rack on the trunk lid lol!

[@valricogarcia]

I just happened to come across your channel at random and was really glad I did. This was a fantastic video. Such an awesome car just as it sits. Getting Freiburger and Dulcich to sign it was awesome. I'd love to meet them someday. Back in the early-mid 80's I spent 3 years building my first Hot rod (69 mustang fastback) from ages 19-22. I drove it around town for 300 miles then me and my brother, along with my buddy in his '77 camaro, drove from New York to St. Louis for the Car craft magazine street machine nationals. I still can't believe we did that. No cell phones, no GPS. Just a couple of kids with a Road atlas and a sense of adventure. Caroline's youthful excitement brought those memories back. Thanks for taking us along on your adventure. subscribed.

How i stumbled across this video i have no idea...I was hooked the second i saw the Charger in the Yard find. Grew even more interested as you moved through the Power Tour. I wasn't aware of this Tour but it is definitely something I want to join in on next year. I moved back home to the Shenandoah Valley a few years ago and when i realized where the tour took you guys i realized just how small the world can be....I lived in Weaverville NC for over 30 years before moving back home to Virginia and was tickled to see you guys riding through there on your way to Bristol....Great video, very well edited and produced. Maybe next year I'll stand on my big truck holding a sign for you guys to sign my ride!! Take care and keep posting those hot rod videos and any of the fury if you have it!!👋

[@Dallen9]

Couldn't tell if it was a trap door spider or a tarantula.... All you need to know is either way it was just going to hurt like hell if it bit anyone. And a flaming spider running at you is a terrifying site to behold when one of those comes charging.

In late seventies my buddy just missed a70 six pack GTX that the father of a son who died in Vietnam finally could bear to sell it. He was jacking with “now I will ask the bank”. Guy from Ohio had money when he showed up. A couple years later, I worked at a full service gas station. A Pentecostal woman would come in on occasion, in a pristine 396 SS Nova. I told her I liked seeing her come in with it. He said “it belonged to my son”. I never pressed it, as I lost a brother in the military and saw the same pain my mother had at times. Great to keep the story of these cars .

[@HHWheels]

That’s awesome!!!! Thanks for watching!

[@eugenepiurkowski5439]

Thanks for the memories. Back in 69, couldn't afford a new Charger, so I settled for a Coronet 440 two-door hardtop....same color green. Drafted a few months later. In 1973, back home and bought a new...... 1973 Charger SE Brougham. Nicest car I ever owned. Bronze and white exterior and white interior. My current toy is a 71 Challenger Convertible. What's the story on the engine in your Charger? Is it a numbers-matching 440?

From the fall of 1968 into the spring of 1969 I work for a small town Dodge dealer in River Falls Wisconsin. In March 1969 I left and join the US Army. On the showroom floor of that Dodge dealer was a green charger identical to the one being featured here. It was an absolutely beautiful vehicle. This story reminds me of the countless Mustangs, Camaros, Chargers and other automobiles that were bought by young men heading off to war.

[@HHWheels]

Great story man!! Could probably talk with you about those time with you for hours. Thank you for your service! 🇺🇸

Right on guys!! 69 Charger was my first car I bought in 76 for 175 dollars. Was just a little 318 auto. Other than needing one fender painted the car was in excellent condition and ran like a top with only having one problem and that was the starter got stuck, pulled it off and when I heard it click as soon as I got the second nut loosened I just tightened it back up and drove it many miles until I let my best friend drive it and slid it into a ditch up against a telephone pole right behind the passenger door. What I would give to have it and many of the cars I have had in my time here on earth. By the way I was 15 when I bought it.

Geez her vibe and personality is just like my youngest daughter. What a cool life you both have.

[@amnril]

First video of yours I’ve seen, thanks random KZbin AI thingy. I really enjoyed this and it’s lovely to see a dad/daughter combo. Hello from your cousin from across the pond 🙂👍

[@HHWheels]

So so glad you enjoyed! Thanks so much for watching!

[@justinraystyles3537]

Upstate south carolina native here!! Pretty cool I swear I've seen this car and heard thus story about the boy that owned it!!

[@marshalloveracre3204]

I suggest doing your own. I used rolls of stainless on my 65 fb and various braided lines at the corners and rear end. Used flaring tool from Titan #51535. Worked well enough on the stainless. Wouldn’t recommend the other cheap style flare tool for stainless anyways. Nycop is definitely easier to work with. Just doesn’t look as cool. Good luck.

Thanks for the tip!

Thanks, interesting video of wrenching & the Tour…..my first viewing of your Wirks/ Channell, but :lots of time driving through same area ,& working on old cars…. And recovering from COVID ……..etc.

[@stanhutchins4365]

Absolutely incredible video, what’s the plans for the ‘Friz’ restore it or keep it like it as with a little fix here and there. That car is definitely a keeper for life.

[@HHWheels]

We are just going to do upgrades and fixes as needed. Friz is telling a great story right now and we just want to keep opening up new chapters 🤙

[@bobtucker8875]

My dad had a black 68 charger beautiful car,so i know how you feel about the charger,so cool you got it signed by roadkill awesome video

[@stevehenri4719]

You guys are living the dream! How could you not do one burn out with that car? My brother in law had one same colour best burn out ever!

[@ajaks7636]

Great Car, Great Repairs, Awesome Video!! I was watching John Schneider on YT, and I think he said they had to dress up a bunch of 68's as well. They couldn't find enough 69's. Thank You.

[@HHWheels]

Thanks 👍

[@stevenchambers754]

Love the charger, fell in love with it when I first see the dukes of hazard but I'm in the UK keep doing what you do best love the channel ❤️

[@slickone9135]

Wow. Flooded with memories. I'm in HS in 82 and there is only 1 musclecar in the lot. Its a 70 Charger RT/SE, a 440 car . Same color as this one. It's Iowa so its rusted beyond belief. I asked her every week if her dad would sell and it was always no.

[@V8Deuce]

Weren't all R/T models equipped with 440 Magnums as standard ? Optional would of been 426 Hemi? I have never heard of an R/T with 383.

[@rustynails9659]

Yes. no 383s in a R/T someone ether charge the motor or just put the R/T emblem on it

[@mellowgunny7885]

Only a few built special with a stroker! Even more rare!! Thanks for turning that negative into a pisitive!!😊

[@ThomasSmith-hh8fp]

​@@mellowgunny7885Stroker??,

[@JohnDoe-ls1vd]

I bought the same car in 1975 for $200. My 1st car, my first job..I made payments lol. I was washing cars and 1 of the salesmen was showing the car, backed up..door open and the door hit a snow bank and bent the door all the way back. Bad for him..good for me. New door, and fender and I was rollin. The good old days! Thanks for the memories.

[@G77799]

I just stumbled upon your channel I subscribed. I like the way y’all mesh together 🛞Get after it ‼️✝️🇺🇸

[@HHWheels]

Thank you! Thanks for subscribing and watching! More to come on this charger! ❤️

[@lukesmith8547]

When they signed your car technically Dave and Steve dubbed it worthy to be part of the roadkill family

[@HHWheels]

Yeah, Steve really liked it. David tried to trade us the duster. I was like, “Nope”

[@bradleymadosh911]

Jist found your channel andni love it. So cool that yous bought a 69 charger. My best friends Dad had a 74 or 75 Roadrunner and it was so bad ass. I cant wait to watch more videos yous have

[@blixxxx7]

Wow is right. Restoring it to drive everyday would be a dream. One could make that car look like you have something people like me would be very very proud of, in any condition from that point on. No lie. Your very lucky. And blessed.

[@HHWheels]

We agree with you! Thx ✌️

[@alanstant9356]
