Been A While....Thought I'd Share My Charger Collection

Hey all;

Been a while since I've posted much here but thought I'd share some recent photographs of my Charger collection in my new shop as I know everyone here loves photos. Got a couple of four-post lifts on their way since I still have to put a '69 Super Bee inside that I have sitting outside in the driveway. Last time I posted, I only had the two Chargers so thought I'd update and share. I still remember joining this site way back in 2005 at the age of 13 with just my '69 Charger and constantly getting harassed. :lol: I'll tell ya, 13 year old Cody is really happy where I'm at now being able to own these amazing cars.

Anyways, here's my Chargers from left to right.  :cheers:


-My T5 Bronze '69 Charger that I've had since I was 6. The one that started it all. It's getting stripped down this winter to start the proper restoration finally. I have a modern Hemi and a bunch of goodies for it. Everyone knows this one well so I won't go into detail about it.

-'71 Charger Super Bee; Factory U-Code 440 Magnum 4-speed car in GY3 Citron Yella with a black bench seat interior. Nicely optioned with the A33 Track Pak, hideaways, Tuff wheel, 15x7 Rallyes, front and rear spoilers, tinted glass, hood pins, bazooka exhaust tips. I dragged this one out of a field back in fall 2020. They made 26 U-Code Super Bees in 1971 for the United States and supposedly they only built 1 for Canada which would be that car. Was sold new at Columbia Dodge in New Westminster, B.C. It has a very cool and long history. It was recently featured in the Muscle Cars: Bone Stock and Modified magazine so I'll try and share the article when I can. I'll be doing a full restoration to OE-spec once my '69 is done.

-'71 Charger R/T: U-Code 440 Magnum automatic in GY3 Citron Yella. Was a dealer demo from Crosstown Motors in Edmonton, Alberta. Optioned with a black bucket seat interior, black vinyl top, 15x7 Rallyes, hood pins and fender mounted turn signals. I bought it back in 2016 from a very good friend I met off this website years ago. Been collecting parts for it since. I've been really leaning towards selling it back to my good friend to focus on my other restoration projects but I'm really torn. It's such a cool car but I know I won't be restoring it anytime soon. So we'll see what happens.

-'71 Charger R/T: U-Code 440 Magnum automatic in B5 Blue (although it's current paint is darker than B5). Sold new at Columbia Dodge in New Westminster, B.C just like my Super Bee. Only 47 order numbers off apart. Matching blue bucket seat interior with a black vinyl top. Bought it last month. It popped up on Craigslist for a steal and I jumped on it. Pretty nicely built up HP440. It was fairly low optioned but it's been dressed up with front and rear spoilers, staggered Rallye wheels, hideaways (I have the proper '71s to put in it), bazooka exhaust tips and a Rimblow wheel. It's a great turn key driver that I've been driving a lot.


Hope everyone is doing well!  :cheers:

Thank you! Yeah, I can't wait until the Super Bee is restored. It's such an amazing car and I'm very lucky to own it.

Thank you! For the tail panel, I just purchased a two pack of salt lamp replacement plugs off Amazon. They came with the bulbs and cords all as one assembly. I literally just clicked them into the tail lamp sockets and plugged them into a power bar. Super easy and very low power useage!

Thank you! You're always welcome to come by anytime. I'm in Kelowna now so quite a bit closer to you! The Rabbit is my wife's baby. She is going to be restoring it along with a '52 Willys M38 Army Jeep she has.

Thank you! My wife has always wanted one. We got offered a package deal of three so we bought them and sold the other two for what we paid for the three so my wife got a free Willys out of it!
