Have you really looked at the detail on the '68 lights?  I read they were inspired by jet exhausts.  In an old Car & Driver or Motor Trend I have from '67 says the new '68 Charger was inspired by the Corvette.  Funny reading how they talk about head room and luggage space.  How could anyone think that this:



looks anything like this turd?

I was also one of those who loves 68 grille and 69 taillights. But the 68 taillights has won me over!  :coolgleamA:

Hmmm......you sold your '69 to a buddy and found a '68....and now wanna put a '69 tailpanel on it???
Why'd ya sell the '69 in the first place if that's what you like???

That's what I was thinking. The boy's a couple slices short of a full pizza. :image_294343:
I'm not a big fan of the '68 taillights either, but I sure wouldn't go hack up one to change them...unless that rear panel was about ready to fall out on it's own from rust, then maybe.

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

I bought a '68 because the tail and marker lights are round. If you want both then buy both. Leave it alone and go buy a Vega if you don't like the way Chrysler designed the Charger.

Hey Bull, imagine how joyous you'd be if a round car like the VW Beetle had round tail lights & side markers?   :nana:

I don't think this is about taillights. I think this is the same old shit about turning another car into genl lee replica. :horse:

Welp, I guess you got an opinion from this thread. Maybe not what you wanted to hear.

Anyway, good luck with whatever you decide to do.
