Jim,
Is the car an automatic on the column?
Taxicab interior
Did you used to live in Iowa?
If so, PM me. I may have some history.
Yes, Yes, No. I'm good with the history of my car, with the exception of the first owner who had the car less than a year. (Anyone know Mr. Richard Dick from the Buffalo, NY region in 1968?) The car stayed in NY until '87 or so and then it has been in the Norfolk/Virginia Beach area since.
I'm always game for another story especially if it involves a car that looks like mine...moonshine runner? bank robbery? Hollywood models?

I have a REAL soft spot for red, 1968 Hemi Road Runners. That is a very nice looking car.
....there is nothing like driving my 1968 Hemi Dart around town and having people looking at you like you're nuts!!

Jim, congratulations on getting it together, you've truely done a top notch job on it. It looks and sounds awesome (I love the sound of a solid lifter motor). Also, thanks for the compliments to the shop. I was glad to be a small part of this special project, and it was a pleasure dealing with you. Now go take some big trophies with it and drive it!
