    The Dodge Charger is a model of automobile marketed by Dodge in various forms over eight generations since 1966.
    The first Charger was a show car in 1964.[1][2] A 1965 Charger II concept car resembled the 1966 production version.[3]
    In the United States, the Charger nameplate has been used on mid-size cars, personal luxury coupes, subcompact hatchbacks, and full-size sedans.
    The third generation Charger was introduced for the 1971 model year. Chrysler's B platform was modified to meet new emissions and safety regulations. Available in six different packages with cosmetic changes, including a split grill, semi-fastback rear window, and a ducktail spoiler.
    The 1973 and 1974 Chargers were similar to the 1971s, with minor differences in the grille and headlamps. The 1973 and 1974 Chargers also featured new quarter windows, which were larger and shaped differently than the quarter windows seen on the 1971 and 1972 models.
    The increase in sales was primarily due to the elimination of the Dodge Coronet two-door, which meant Dodge offered the two-door intermediate-size body style only as the Charger (although the Coronet two-door would reappear in 1975).
    The third generation Charger debuted for the 1971 model year with a new "fuselage" sheet metal and a new split grille. The interiors were like those of the E-body and were now shared by the Plymouth B-body, the Plymouth Satellite Sebring, and the Road Runner. The hidden headlights were now optional. A rear spoiler and a "Ramcharger" hood were new options. This hood featured a pop-up scoop mounted above the air cleaner controlled by a vacuum switch under the dash. On Plymouth Road Runners, it was called the "Air Grabber" hood and was previously used on the Coronet R/T and Super Bee.
    Dodge also merged its Coronet and Charger lines. From 1971, all four-door B-bodies were badged as Coronets and all two-door B-bodies as Chargers. Thus, for only one year, the Super Bee became part of the Charger lineup, after which it was discontinued. From 1971 to 1974, Charger models used the Coronet's VIN prefix "W".
    Several other models were carried over from 1970, including the 500, R/T, and SE. Sales of the R/T declined due in part to higher insurance costs and gasoline prices. A total of 63 Hemi RTs were built that year, marking its last appearance in any production car, and 2,659 with other engines. The 1971 model year was also the last for the 440 Six-Pack engine, which could still be mated to a 4-speed manual transmission with an optional Hurst shifter and the automatic. In the Super Bee's final year, the 340 became a $44 option over the standard, low-compression 383 V8.
    The "Hi-Impact" colors were discontinued after the 1971 model year; with a 1971-only "Citron Yella".
    The name Charger was also used in Brazil as a performance model based on the Dart (A-Body) (1971-80).

    Got my order in for this kit, but I forgot the last edition only included the 440 's (1-2-1) exhaust manifolds but most of the Hemi parts, too, but since I've been building models since 1964, I have enough correct stock Hemi exhausts (1-1-1-1) in my spare parts to build the correct Hemi engine. Thanks for re-releasing this kit. Besides, I can use the 440 exhaust manifolds of this engine on the Warlock !

    The 440 as a Hemi wasn't offered by Mopar. It was however buildable aftermarket. PAW back in the day offered the parts to convert a high block into a Hemi.
    Nice build as always. The original '70s kit had optional wheels, headers and other hot rod parts.

    In terms of using the rubbing alcohol to clear up the Sharpie mistakes, I guess you have to wait till the paint is fully cured and not use too much of it, am I right? That cleaned up very nicely and I love the bright colors those older cars came in. I don't recall whether this is a newly tooled kit or a reissue, but it looks like a well detailed model.

    Dodge and Plymouth never made a 440 hemi, they're strictly 426 cubic inches, Hemis also didn't come with air conditioning, especially with an air grabber hood, the compressor won't clear the scoop base. Nice build though.

    this is not an accurate '71 426 Hemi Charger kit. the Hemi parts are modeled after the Stage V Hemi conversion for RB engines from the 90's. this is why the kit has the 440 A/C set up, which wasn't available in any 426 Hemi optioned car. the Stage V parts were included in the custom '71 Super Bee kit, and are now part of the R/T kit. with some modifications and kitbashing, you can build an accurate 426 Hemi Charger from this kit however......
