    Slight correction on the '68 Charger interiors. All models had front buckets as standard equipment. Front center seat belts were optional with fold down armrest. I believe a front bench was available on the '70 though. Great show Kevin. 👍

      @@kota7840 I had a 1973 Challenger 340 Ralley for my senior year.
      It was kinda fast.
      What I tried to get my dad to buy was a used 1970 GTX 440.
      I have always loved the 1970 GTX with the 1970 Charger 440 or 426 being my next most loved.
      Back in late 1960s to 1970 Chrysler muscle was the most power/fastest for the money.

      I guess that would be my 3rd favorite.
      I never appreciated the Coronet's scoops.
      They just looked too cartoonist to me.
      The Super 🐝 was fast.
      A guy one town from where I lived had one.
      He would race with those "street legal" slicks. The kind that had one or two little grooves.
      He won lots of races and got into many fights after the races with looser calling out "cheating".

    I always thought the '66-'67 Charger was butt-ugly, hideous-looking. But no matter what you thought of it's looks, it was still one hell of a fast car. The '68-'70 Charger on the other hand was one of the most iconic musclecars of all time. It had the looks, the substance, the essence. In musclecar parlance, it was and is immortal

    69 gotta be my favorite Charger year, the Taillights and split grille definitely do it for me. And growing up as a kid watching Bo and Luke Duke with there 69 probably the reason why that's the year for me. When i was a kid, that was the Best thing on TV, wouldn't miss an episode. I know some people prefer the 68 Taillights, to me they just too damn small for the back of the car, the 69 Taillights were a Major Improvement to me, and i think to Dodge also, since we're used on 70 models also.

    Great video summary of these 'wow' cars. Well spoken by the narrator. Tremendous examples shown here. Good to see the unnecessary music has been muted right down so as to be unobtrusive, although removing the music entirely, except at the start would be even better. I always thought the 66-67 Charger styling was awkward and bulky at the rear but that interior was just amazing and what a pity they cut costs by cheapening it down in the next models. It's also beyond my understanding why Chrysler would choose boring white as the color for their touring show car. Surely a more interesting color would have been better. After all, it was a sports tourer aimed at the younger faster generation they were promoting, not a wedding limo.
