1968 Dodge Dealer price sheets. Do they exist?

[HWYCRZR]

I see examples of window stickers from time to time but have not seen any dealer price guides. Do they exist?
I am curious on pricing and options. If you have any’68 examples of the window sticker or a dealer price guide please post.
Ultimately I would like to create a window sticker. But really want the whole option price look for Polara’s.

Not sure if this is exactly what your looking for but here goes. The window sticker on the left is the dealer invoice with the price they paid for the car and options, sticker on the right is the copy that would have been on the car, shows the mark up . Hopefully this helps, if your looking for a specific price for a certain option I'll try and help you out, I have all the paperwork from this dealership.

I will have to take a look at these on my big screen.

Back in the middle '60s, one of the "benefits" of subscribing to some financial magazines and "Consumer Reports" was their "Confidential New Car Price Gujde" . . . which I wanted to see, back then. But in the later '60s, it was possible to find some price guides on the newsstands. The ones from Edmunds were the best, listing option codes, dealer price, and retail pricing of the cars and the specific options. Only thing that was not in there was the "Transportation" charge, which varied with where the car/pickup truck was shipped. Still have them archived somewhere.

When I found "the good ones", I'd manage to buy one. I spent hours running various cars' prices and such. Dreaming of which one's I would like to own. Good, clean, time-spending activities, back then.

In the later '80s, the repro window sticker industry seemed to come of age, for Mopars. As I recall, some vendors were better than others. I never did compare what they had to what the old price guides had for pricing. I never did test them for price accuracy, just suspecting they'd be good for display purposes and their novelty value.

Just some thoughts,

@kyle340 Thanks for the info this is very helpful. I am putting together and excel sheet for now for how mine was built. So far I have a couple of questions.
First is the column descriptions on the top line. They are not very clear. I got Description but what is the column name between that and factory wholesale price?
Also on the customer side what does the column read between description and weight?

I wonder why they have the engine printed twice, but with only one price? A misprint?
As for option price this covers most of them. 2dr ht vinyl seats, vinyl roof. I have heat only, my assumption is that that is standard.
I have the radio and lights package.
The only thing that is really not covered is I do not have the White Hat Special Package. I have most of the options like the std hub caps, sill molding and wheel lip molding, but not the bumper guards or deluxe hubcaps.
Thanks

Here are a couple better pics of the prices, yes I would say it's a misprint that the engine is listed twice, I've been through 15 years of paperwork from this dealership, and tons of mistakes and words spelled wrong. If you still have trouble reading them I don't have a problem mailing you a few copies of different invoices from 68 polara's .

What you need to find is a book like this but for Dodge. This is Plymouth only but I notice that the option order numbers the same. Basically shows everything that was available for each model.

That is exactly what I would like.
Thanks at least I know what to look for.

I have referenced this site quite a bit. I have only found pricing in the salesman pocket book, but the Polara sections are not there.

Thanks

I asked my buddy if his Dad had one of these books I could look at. Vic has collected a lot of late ‘60’s early ‘70’s Mopar’s over the years, but hasn’t run across these books.

@kyle340 I will put together my options this weekend, or next week and maybe request an invoice copy of something close.
thanks
