Is this a 200 or 190 mm body. I.e. nitro or electric. HPI makes some bodies, and in fact makes one of a 1969 Dodge charger which is what the genral Lee is. Only issue is it is made for a monster truck, and not a touring car. I am not sure on width or length, in comparison to a touring car, but here is the info..
#7184 1969 Dodge Charger US Retail Price $33.00

Bolink also makes a charger shell.
BL2257 Bolink '69 Dodge Charger

the only car that hpi's charger will fit is the super's by hpi. otherwise, ud need to modify it for your own use. hope u find something that works! good luck!

Here is what I was able to find..
The Bolink part number BL2257 69er Dodge Charger is for 1/10 scale cars.
Now 1/10 is either 190 mm or 200 mm, i.e. electric / nitro. Even if it was a 200 mm it would work since it will only be a little wider, by 5mm on either side.
KRB in the uk sells them for $28.00

Happy hobby also sells bolink.

Not sure if they went out of business or what, but I am pretty sure the Bolink shell will fit your car...

Bolink is long gone. If you were to find this body, it would be like finding a fat kid who doesnt like pie.

i was checking up at my LHS today to see if they had any and since i was racing ther today i decided to ask. and thats what the owner said was that bolink is histroy.
i was thinking though since my grandpa owns a few plastic compines that i could have my uncle make a mold of the 69 Charger. then all i need would be the decals... ;)
