      Not me. At 16 years old, when I started high school in 1975, I rolled in a pristine ‘71 Plymouth Barracuda (medium blue metallic with white vinyl top and blue interior). Traded that one a year later (in 1976) for a ‘74 Plymouth ‘Cuda 360 (yellow with black longitudinal stripes that ran the full length of the car along the upper part of both sides, black vinyl top, black interior) which I drove the last two years of high school through my first year of college.
      Just before my second year of college began, I sold the ‘Cuda and bought a 351c.i. powered ‘78 Ford T-bird with T-tops (white with white vinyl landau top, red pin striping, white leather seats with red carpet and dash).
      That was how I rolled back in the day.
      Wish I would have kept the Barracuda and ‘Cuda. Those were two mighty fine Plymouths!

    It's important to note, that not all cars from Chrysler in this time period have Lean Burn. There are so many misconceptions about Lean Burn. Even on the Charger, it was an option on the 318 engine, you had to pay extra for it. I believe it was standard on only the 400. If you lived in California, or Colorado in high Altitude areas, you couldn't have lean burn at all. Lean Burn didn't make the car pollute less, it only gave the car better fuel mileage and horsepower. Lean Burn wouldn't meet the emission standards of California so no cars in California have lean burn, that's about 15% of all Chrysler Products were sold to California.

    This car had a radio scan search button mounted on the floor that the driver could trip with your left foot. The Ttops were cute, but a sunroof was better. Today the sunroofs are moonroofs, with glass, combining the t-tip and sunroof capacities, and a Panoramic even more so. Thanks Lee for the cars, and Jimmy for bailing Chysler out.

    The '75 (first year) version of this filmstrip is also on UA-cam. It talks about increased windshield area from the '74 Charger; given how expensive that is to change I can only guess that the Cordoba/Charger used the windshield and cowl pressing the Coronet/Satellite sedans and wagons had since 1971.

    The computers mounted on the air filter was it's down fall. They couldn't take the heat and vibration even though the circuit board/computer was bedded in some kind of silicone. They consistently failed. Within 2 years they moved it inside the car and mounted it behind the glove box. Still very impressive for the time and one of many things Chrysler did first. They also did something called the Seat Belt Interlock System. The car would not start if the seat belt wasn't clicked in place. It led to an entire group of people who sat on the seat belts every day for years. Chrysler eventually abandoned the whole program it was so unpopular with buyers.

    When I worked for Dodge, they had a used Charger just like this, that the F&I Manager called Christine. One day, I finished Washing Christine, and started to wash an Impala that was about 10 feet in Front of Christine. After a few minutes, I stepped back to rinse my rag out in my bucket, and Christine was Right behind me; I had missed a little Dirt at the Bottom of her Grille. I looked All around, but Nobody was there. When this real Nasty lady made a crack about Christine before a test drive, it (she) Wouldn't start. Later, a Truckdriver came in, fell in Love with Christine, bought her, and re named her "Honey". Soon after, his Wife left him....

    Aside from rust and the horrible ELB systems, these were not horrible cars. Big and roomy, they had the luxury people were looking for back then, in a 2 door specialty hardtop. Unlike Ford or GM, they still had some grunt and much better handling, when 1 ordered an engine w/o the ELB... The biggest turn off for sales was a poorly applied name.. 'Charger' had always stood for brute performance in a higher end 2 door sports coupe/hardtop. This car, with it's too close to Cordoba styling, wasn't that. Indeed, most buyer simply went with a Cordoba for a couple bucks more, with a couple more items standard, and virtually the same option list, package for package. Adding the Daytona name only caused more insult to injury, as it was just a sport appearance graphics package. I know, all of the big 3 were doing that back then. I had read an article in the early 90's that several names were considered before the brass got involved, and simply called it a Charger SE. Magnum, ( which of course would later be used and replaced it) Dodge GT, Dodge Charger LT which got them in trouble with GM using LT with Chevrolet, Dodge TC for touring coupe, which got nixed because everyone was calling the Town and Country wagon, a TC at the time, and Dodge Luxurian, which the brass thought sounded too much like the old Buick Centurion. Still, not a bad car, just poorly timed and poorly named.

    I wish I could say that I've found the 1977 Dodge Charger to be a very attractive car to look at. By this point, car makers seemed to concentrate more on style and comfort, and less on function and performance. While I can understand the wish to produce safer cars, but a lot of the American cars of the mid 70s, except for the Dart and Aspen (IMHO), seem to look less and less attractive.

      That was basically what US auto industry became starting in 71 and by 73 everything was somewhere on the economy to luxury scale, even the past performance marques. When the insurance rates and smog regulations killed the muscle cars and the feds mandated the big bumpers, everything that was not economy went luxury. The answer to everything seemed to be put a vinyl roof, opera windows, and coach lights on it and call it a Brougham. Then when the gas prices spiked in the mid 70s, these so called luxury cars became vulnerable. The Japanese had economy cars that were innovative and reliable while the Europeans could produce cars that could handle well and gave better performance given their power to weight ratios. Yes, the mid 70s to early 80s were a sad decade for American cars and let's not talk about quality as that was another sad story.

      Due to California emissions though those cars had no power we have a 78 magnum xe E58 package my dad did all of that performance stuff, manifold, carb, headers etc. Couldn't squeeze anything out of it he tried octane booster and it hated it we have been told even after all that was done it will only make a small difference unless the pistons and heads were changed from a no emissions 360 so the motor is still gutless but a nice car nonetheless
