Numbers on front axle. What do they mean?

Recommended Posts

Hello

First off I want to thank everyone who has answered my questions lately!

I am doing my first restoration am new to the forum but have posted several questions and got great responses!

Special thanks to pullstart he has posted a reply to all my questions!

Love the forum has helped my a lot

With that being said I found these numbers on my front axle 2/8/8 also I attached a picture 

What do these mean? it almost seems like it might be a manufacturer date which would be nice as I am trying to figure out exactly what year charger I have. I believe someone put different decals on from what it originally was .

I also have reason to believe the model number is not original 

Any input is always appreciated 

Thank you in advance

A Casting date ??? That's my best guess since we have seen that on other parts

Feb 8 1968

Ditto, that would be my best guess as well.

My guess would be a casting date or a heat number for the iron melt used in the casting.

It would make sense that it would be 1968 that would match my model # which is a charger 9

Someone must have put charger 10 decals on it at some point

Thank you!!
