Some information about the Dodge Charger:
The entire B-body lineup for 1968 was redesigned and the Charger was further differentiated from the Dodge Coronet models. Designer Richard Sias developed a double-diamond coke bottle profile with curves around the front fenders and rear quarter panels. Front and rear end sheet metal was designed by Harvey J. Winn. The rear end featured a "kick up" spoiler appearance. inspired by Group 7 racing vehicles. On the roof. a "flying buttress" was added to give the rear window area a look similar to that of the 1966-67 Pontiac GTO. The Charger retained its full-width hidden headlight grille. but a vacuum operated cover replaced the electric motor rotating headlights. The previous full-width taillights were replaced with dual circular units at the direction of Styling Vice President. Elwood P. Engel. Dual scallops were added to the doors and hood.
Inside. the interior was completely new. A conventional rear seat replaced the bucket seats were gone. The console remained the same. but there was no center armrest. The tachometer was now optional instead of standard. the carpeting in the trunk area was replaced by a vinyl mat. the rear seats did not fold forward and the electroluminescent gauges disappeared in favor of a conventional design.
The standard engine was the 318 cu in (5. 2 L) 2-bbl until it was replaced in mid-year with a 225 cu in (3. 7 L) slant-six. The 383-2 and 383-4 remained unchanged. A new high-performance package was added. the R/T ("Road/Track" with no 'and' between Road and Track). The R/T came standard with the previous year's 440 "Magnum" and the 426 Hemi was optional.
In 1968. Chrysler Corporation began an ad campaign featuring a cartoon bee with an engine on its back featuring models called the "Scat Pack". The Coronet R/T. a rel="rel nofollow" href="http://en. wikipedia. org/wiki/Dodge_Super_Bee" title="Dodge Super Bee" >Super Bee. nbsp;Dart GTS. and Charger R/T received bumble-bee stripes (two thin stripes framing two thick stripes). The stripes were standard on the R/Ts and came in red. white or black. They could be deleted at no cost. The 1968 model year Charger sales increased to 96. 00. including over 17. 00 Charger R/Ts.
