Some more pictures, I got the car with a 69 or later steering wheel. Found a green 68 steering wheel that was all brittle. The repair shop did a great job, also the Ames repro spokes are fitting really good.

Second pic is in front of a Esso gas station with my friends 68 Charger R/T

My family aquired a '68 Tempest Custom 4-door sedan in late 1976. It was my older sister's college car. She let me drive it on a couple dates with my high school sweetheart.
Like Marv's car, ours was Verdero with a 350 2bbl and jetaway transmission.

Guten Tag. Die Familie meiner Mutter stammte bis 1945 aus Schlesien in Deutschland. Dann zogen sie wegen der Belagerung von Breslau in Leipzig um. sie hat meinen Vater 1963 kennengelernt, als er in Deutschland stationiert war.
Ich hoffe, das macht alles Sinn, da mein Deutsch eingerostet ist.

That is perfect German without a single mistake

My grandparents were also from Schlesien ( today it´s Poland ) they luckily escaped the red army and made it to Hanover.

thank you, that´s what I learned over the years. You barely see an unmolested Tempest, they were either used and crushed or cloned into a GTO.

But I´m sorry, I don´t know what a Z paper is

Meine Mutter war Petzold, bevor sie meinen Vater heiratete. das Haus der Familie Petzold steht noch in Rostersdorf (jetzt Trzesow, Polen) Mamas Mutter war etwas außerhalb von Glogau

I better go back to English. I orginally wrote that in half German and switched to Portugese.
