Foreign Mopars

[jamie1974]

   Just wondering...does anyone know if Chrysler put out any foreign versions of the Charger, or foreign versions of other Mopars in other countries like Mexico with a slightly different body style than the American version? Seems to me a while ago I ran into a web site where a guy had a picture of a 68 Charger produced in another country, and it looked quite different than the ones here. Any pics?

I just gonna guess and say No. Except the emblems might say "Chargere" LMAO

You have Venezulean Charger's they are the same body style (73/74) but have some different features as the R/T, which was no longer a model in the US. Than you also have the Brazilian Charger's which were Dart's with a Charger name... Oh and almost forgot the Australian Charger's which were a completely different car.

    Yeah Thanks Arthur. I did find one of those Australian Chargers. Yeah, looks quite different than the ones in the U.S. I wonder why they look different if they're made by the same company.

  Ran into this Aussie Charger, too:

Now that's the first time I have heard of that. That's some cool stuff and minding the headlights I think the 2 door version R/T is a very cool car.

I think the most famous foreign Charger here is Nacho's blue '74 R/T Venezuelan only.

Mopart's has a nice thread about the Brazilian Chargers with a lot of good picks.

That looks like a 64 Chevelle.

Looks more like a '66 Olds Cutlass if you ask me, but I like them.

I just found this online, when looking at a link on the thread about 73/74 charger quarter panels...freaky!

umm,.. ah, yeah,..
..were gonna need you to stop posting now....

[Nacho-RT74]

Thanks God Venezuela did keep the same body lines... and as stated by Arthur all Venezuelan Chargers were called R/Ts, maybe just for marketing purpouse

Yes as stated, Brazil, Argentina, Australia and Spain had its own Chrysler models based on another plattforms, basically A bodies

    Yeah Thanks Arthur. I did find one of those Australian Chargers. Yeah, looks quite different than the ones in the U.S. I wonder why they look different if they're made by the same company. 

Jamie - that's not actually a Charger - it's an Aussie Pacer ( 4 Doors ) ...All Aussie Chargers only had two doors...

By the way - here is a pic of my old car - It's not a Charger either - It's what was known as a VH Hardtop - I still love this shape car but I sold it to get my 68 ( much better!! )

[jamie1974]

  Yeah, that VH Hardtop isn't a bad looker! I like it...especially the rear window view looks cool. I also think the Brazilian Charger is a good looking machine, too. I like it.   

   Thanks for the info guys! I wanna look into these articles to learn more. Neat to see some of these Chargers from countries outside the U.S. :smile:
