Hey gnag..
A friend of mine just bought an original '68 LL1 Hemi 4-speed Road Runner from the Vancouver area. The trunk has this vent plumbing and we're a little lost on exactly what it is. I'm not used to seeing this. My former '68 Hemi Charger R/T didn't have this. His car was sold new in Arlington, WA @ Ben's Chrysler Plymouth... Here are shots from inside the trunk and under by the sending unit..

Cheers,
Troy

not sure what your asking,but that is your fuel tank vent,from tank up into trunk,back out trunk so fumes escape under car not in trunk,other end should be open

Troy,

Those are the correct venting for the gas tank, glad to see they are still in place. I can post a pic or two from my 68 Runner.

I don't think the Charger had it due to the qtr mounted filler neck.

So,, this would be on all B-bodies except Chargers? I've own only one non-Charger of the '68-70 model year, a '69 Road Runner...

Thanks..

As far as I know. I'm on the flip side of what you have owned, only 1 1970 Charger out of all my B bodies.
