Couple of questions...My '68RR is a hardtop. I am under the assumption that all of the hardtop models automatically came with the Decor package. Is this correct, and what exactly did the decor package give you? I'm mainly wondering about the rocker moldings. I know it gave the RR's a finish panel and upgraded interior. I dont have the rocker moldings on mine currently so I was wondering if it should even be a thought in my head. Second, what are the proper seat medallions for my car? In looking at a bunch of 68 and 69 RR's in Carlisle, there seemed to be several different types of medallions in these two cars. Pictures would be great. Thanks!

Thanks for the help. I have my tag, but no build sheet. What was/is the code for the moldings?

Option code 529 for "sill moldings", as Chrysler called them.

I have a NOS cover for the back seat. Here is a pic of what I believe is the "date code" & the emblems. The emblems are aprox two inches long like the ones in my 69 RR.

Very interesting! The ones I found in Pa are just like the ones pictured above. Somehow luck was on my side and I was able to find a set of 8. Now I just need to "restore" them and get the seats recovered. Winter project for sure.

Here's where it would be coded on the tag - 1968 Lynch Rd., St. Louis, & Los Angeles.

Very interesting. I definitely wondered if something like that had happened while walking around Carlisle. The vast majority were the tall skinny ones, but I even saw a few cars with both. No one was around to talk to however.
