I know the 68 Road Runner hardtop came with
the decor group standard but what was included when
you ordered the the decor group on a RR coupe?
I have a column shift automatic coupe that looks mostly original but has had some interior changes over the years.
It has the basic seats but has the pillar
post moulding,the trunk appliqué panel,and rear armrests and door belt mouldings. It also has black carpet that looks to be the original. I have no build sheet or previous history.Fender tag code D4B
it is a late 68 built in June

Chrome exhaust tips also...

What I am wondering about is the interior trim,exterior mouldings etc that made up the decor group. Did the decor group on a coupe automatically get you the deluxe Satellite style upholstery with the 1inch pleats?Wouldn't a automatic come with a rubber floor covering unless you ordered the decor group?
I have 2 68 Road Runner coupes here. One has the decor group for sure with the Satellite type upholstery,trunk appliqué and deluxe door panels etc. The other has the tunk appliqué and belt mouldings,pillar mouldings yet it has the basic Road Runner seats and door panels.

Yes, they got the pleted seat covers and carpeting, chrome armrest bases, etc.

some of the trim and molding could be ordered but I think the trunk finish panel was only available with the rr with the decor package, not absolutley sure on that but I can't recall every seeing the finish panel without the decor package?

most of the '68 decor interiors except black are two tone with a darker trim or border that I've seen too.

blue, note the missing seat "buttons" they don't repo them so most are missing

The pictures above are the decor group interior like my other car. So it could be that the car I have is a standard equipment car with the tailpanel added later. Strange that it has belt mouldings and the pillar trim too. It is otherwise a very low option car. Wish I had the buildsheet.

heres an original in red.hemi rr

rear tail.

Learned somethng new. I didn't know that in 68 the 383 road runners didn't come with chrome tips.

My Jan 1, 1968 price & equipment guide book shows the RR Decor Group as a $79.20 option, coupe only (included on HT).
Had 2 of them. Black carpet on the 4-speed, colored carpet on the automatic. Satellite interior, 4 armrests with chrome bases, stainless B-pillar molding, Satellite steering wheel, more colors available than the base interior, trunk finish panel with RR decal in color and burgundy painted recesses that "connected" the tail lights (otherwise basically the same finish panel as Satellites had). I don't recall if rocker moldings were part of the RR Decor Group, but my automatic car had them. The Hamtramck Historical site probably has that info.

So would all road runners with the decor group have the pleated Satellite upholstery?
Would the fender tag indicate the decor group?
My 68 with decor group has the H4R code indicating the Satellite type upholstery in red
I looked at 2 68 Satellites and they too had the H4_ codes.
My other coupe has the M4B code indicating the regular seats in blue,yet it has the mouldings,appliqué panel.
So could you get the decor group and still have the regular seats?

No base seats or door trim with Decor Group; again, the Satellite interior was part of the Decor Group. No RR trunk finish panel without Decor Group. Some moldings were available as separate options. Sounds to me like someone did some parts-changing on the car.
