I haven't made up my mind yet on the drive train as I have a 6.1 and a 440 to choice from. Starting to lean more to the 6.1 as I checked a 69 barracuda done by another member who has the 6.1 and 6 speed set up. drove it to Cali and back and he says great things about the combo.

Very cool...nice to have another 2nd gen on board! Are you going to keep the bumpers black? The DC.com guys will hate it...and will say you've got great taste as that is what I chose to do as well, lol.
You can make comparable power with the 6.1 to a mild 440, but if you mate it up with the tranny you'll have a very fun car to drive with great street manners.
The car looks great as is and would be fine with either form of motorvation imo.
Are you going to swap in the cluster/seats etc? Definitely keep us posted on what you decide on and any progress...it is going to be a very nice 68!

I just finished putting the 545rfe tranny in my 70 Challenger and it fits with only minor crossmember work if you buy street & performance 2" tranny lowering kit. Fully electronic shifting with 5 gears is gonna be sweeeet! I've just about got all drivetrain in and wired up, just need fuel tank and lines for fi. Waiting on rockvalley for the tank. I would go with the 6.1 if it were my choice. same power but twice (maybe more) the fuel economy.

Man, that looks killer! It looks like a perfect fit and I like where you are going with the door panels.
Have you tried fitting the center console yet? This is something I've wanted to play with for the 69.
