Popular Science Magazine article about the new '68 Charger.

This article is from the July 1967 edition of Popular Science. Thought you guys (and gals) might like to see it. It says the new Charger has a Chevrolet look from the rear. Yeah, right.

They could be right.  Anybody around here know what the back of a Chevrolet looks like?

They are talking about the rear window design, called a "tunnel back", that GM used on the 66-67 GTO, Chevelle, and Olds 442. Dodge perfected the look on the Charger, though.

Yeah, when something different shows up, people have a tendency to find SOMETHING similar to compare it to.  In retrospect it sounds a bit dumb, but I bet at the time, they thought it a valid comparison.

I like the comment about the gas cap "No effort was made to blend it in with the body lines of the car" - funny that their big complaint turned into one of the distinctive things that people love about that model

Only when pulling up to a stop light.

The article also said you could get a bench seat in '68 and that the '67 Chargers had full length consoles. I think both of those statemens are wrong.
