Do you keep a special key chain for your Charger?

So did you put any thought into the key chain for your Charger keys or just use what was laying around?
I just have one of those UAS 383 four barrel ones myself but I figured it was better than Rons Realty.

bull

Yes. I bought one specifically for the Charger. Oddly enough it reads "Dodge Charger" in old school script.

Ghoste

I used to have that same one but it went with the car when it was sold.

Got one of the original "VICTOR" key chains for "Christine", got nothing for the rest except the Dart. It has a NOS key chain. It don't stand for new old stock neither...

For many years my ignition key and my door keys were different (I guess the ignition switch had been replaced at sometime?). I finally found someone competent to make everything match up so I, finally, only had to carry two keys. When that happened, I had located a neat old Denver gas station key chain from a business that had been torn down in the early 70s. Somehow, that seemed appropriate to me.

A fellow employee gave this one to me, he knew how much I liked Mopars.
At the time I did not own a Charger so I figured this would be appropriate for me to use on my 68.

...........notice that I have the correct square style ignition key for the 68 model year with the Chrysler logo, wouldn't have it any other way............ :cheers:

Ghoste

Awesome, made sure I had the square key for my 67 as well.  :cheers:

My wife got me this one: http://www.amazon.com/Superman-Key-Chain/dp/B0013GF8KW

A super keychain for a super guy in a super car!  At least that's what I make of it.   :lol:


Years ago when I drove my 68 I had an old Charger keychain that had the leather teardrop backing, like bull's, but the logo was red, white and blue with the old Charger script in the middle.  I've seen variants on it but never found the same one.  I bought mine in '95 so I guess the chances are slim they are still around.

Looks like the key chain used in the movie "The Gladiator" (the Ken Wahl version 1986) The menacing driver of the '69 Charger.

I have a lot of crappy movies now just because there is a Charger in them, I suppose I'll end up adding this one as well.

Dino

Maybe you can edit out all the non Charger stuff and combine the remaining scenes of several movies on one disc.   :2thumbs:   :lol:

:o yeah , so it does !! ,
i remember the chain on the ignition key now, having  just watching the film on youtube ( well fast forwarding to charger only bits  :scope:  )  must of seen that film couple of years before i got my charger ,
may be after seeing that , it stuck psychologically  in my brain , with out me realising , & when i finally got my charger almost 25 years ago ,
perhaps that's the reason i put a length on chain on the original keys few days after :scratchchin: :lol:

Also have one of these for the 88 vert. Got a toy dump truck for the 00 one ton dump, does anybody make headers for the V10 in this  :shruggy:. The 69 I just got was coded for the locking gas cap insert, owner had trouble using it so he hung it on the key chain, looks brand new.

The charger keys are on a ring that says dodge charger, like the one shown above, but i also have held on to a gold plated one that says 440 magnum and looks like the pie pan air cleaner lid, I'll probably use that one when the car is finished, or if I get a 2nd set of keys.

I found this one at a garage sale a few years ago and is from the dealership where my car was sold. it looks to be never used  :icon_smile_big: I will use it when ever the car is done.

I got one like this (only its blue instead of black). It was the key chain I had my 73 keys on....when I sold it, I kept the key chain and put my 69 keys on it. So its cool because it says Charger, but its also a souvenir from my 73.
