Introduced in 1966, the Charger was Dodge’s version of the intermediate-size specialty fastback coupe that many manufacturers were selling. At $3,122, it was a little more expensive than the AMC Marlin or Ford’s Fairlane 500 XL, but it was well equipped and offered a choice of 318- or 361-cubic inch V-8s. When the R/T was introduced you could get a Magnum 440 or the optional Hemi powerplant, such as seen in this car. Suddenly “sport sedan” took on a new meaning outfitted with wide treads, heavy-duty springs, shocks, brakes and sway bar.

This particular example has been rotisserie restored in 1999 to 2000 and certified by Galen Govier. According to the corresponding paperwork, there were 432 Charger Hardtops produced in this model year. This is reported to be number “2” of two that are registered that were finished in Code F6 Bright Green Metallic. This car is also stated to be one of one that is this color with an automatic.

Among the features is the 426-cid, 425-hp Hemi V-8 engine with the Stage II package with two four-barrel carbs. The lengthy list of equipment contains the A727 TorqueFlite automatic transmission with floor shifter, transmission cooler, dual exhaust, maximum cooling package, performance axle package and power brakes with front discs. Additionally you will find a full vinyl roof in white, vinyl bucket seats, white with black interior, tinted windshield, dual rearview mirrors with driver’s side remote, Rallye instrument cluster, three-speed wipers with washer, AM stereo radio with 8-track tape player, 150-mph speedometer, tach/clock (tic-toc-tach), deluxe woodgrain steering wheel, hidden headlights, R/T stripe on the rear, color-keyed steel wheels with dog dish factory caps, BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires, drip rail and body moldings.

This is an unmistakable and highly desired representative of the Dodge Scat Pack lineup of cars… they were the cars with the bumblebee stripes and as recognized today as when new.
