GREEEAT!!! I like a lot that front end more than the originals 67/69 USA Darts! ( but not more than the 70/72s USA Darts :D )

Is something just like the 71/72 RRs grille shape.

( but not on THIS CUSTOM CHARGER LOL )

Thank you for the compliment, my favorite Dart grill is the US 68/69, then comes the 73 Sport, then the one I have, my car will be leaving the bodyshop this saturday, as soon as it's back I will made a thread about it!  :2thumbs:

   Same basic comments on this heap as a couple years ago when it was "new" and out at the Nats in 07.     I don't think anybody likes the look that I remember.   Rick E. drove it around at the Nats and pretty much said it sucked.

First car: uuuh, well... Nice craftsmanship, or something.... You can throw a lot of money at anything, but you can obviously not buy taste.
Second car: Wonderful little touches everywhere (although as usual I'm disagreeing with the rims) and that side exhaust is just BADASS!

 I dont know if it was because it was lowered and so low or not , but it did look like the rocker area was wider.

You know, after thinking on this, why does people take good looking old cars and chop the crap out of them and lower then to make them look down right stupid or ugly  for? 

The cars was built with a good frame and all from the factory for a reason, why be stupid anmd lower the dang things and chop them for. They sure as heck don't look cool and it also ruins the car looks also. If your going to lower the thing why not just take and set the dang vehicle down on the ground and be done with it because with ity lowered it's almost on the ground anyways  ::)

The First Charger nearly all of us agree is a F..K UP you just dont mess with a 68 like that.
The second Charger is much, much better the only things I didnt like were the wheels
(A bit TOO big and side walls too low) and the shifter looks weird other than that, it's a
Nice looking Charger IMO. I still wouldnt have gone that route though...

The lowering trend already went way too far a long time ago.   :Twocents:


 
Does this black Plymouth really look any less absurd than the purple Olds below it?  

I don't see why the hot rodding community admires one of these extremities and ridicules the other.  They're both just mechanically-challenging displays of goofiness that are done purely for their own sake.

Mike DC,  I agree. I would rather have the "stage coach" Olds as it would make getting in and out of easier for me..   :icon_smile_big:

In a word... NO


This Charger right here is a one of none, that means none before it, none to come.

I agree.. That front end looks like CRAP! Only two headlights?? Looks like a mustang from a distance. And, if your going to shave off the bumpers!!!! Why do you leave the opening for the front bumper and not weld in some metal and hide the original fit?!?!?!? SMOOTH IT OUT!! Who the hell cares where the leather came from?

As for the black & gold Charger, I think the mods were potentially a decent idea but they were taken too far in every case.

Imagine doing all the same mods, but removing only 1/2 or 1/3rd the amount of inches from each chop . . . might look much better IMHO.
