The Chargers Movie: Vintage Charger 500 NASCAR Footage

[Rustymuscle]

If You Love Chargers Racing - Heck, Even If You Just Like 'Em - You NEED to Watch This 3-Part Mini-Movie Documenting Dodge's Charger 500 Campaign in NASCAR. Watch The Movie HERE!



Dodge quickly re-equipped racers Buddy Baker, Bobby Allison and Bobby Isaac (as well as several others) with the new Chargers, who all went work eking out even more speed from the Coke-bottle shaped coupe. Long and angular, the second generation Charger never looks better than hauling at 175mph around the circle track, back when Stock Car racing meant stock car.

We absolutely LOVE this vintage film produced in late 1969, documenting the efforts of those men piloting the new Dodges. It's definitely worth your time. Seriously, sit back, turn up the volume so you can hear the voices of NASCAR legends Cotton Owens and Mario Rossi and the high revving sounds of these "bathtub" intake-topped 426 HEMIs howling around the track at speed.

Thanks, very cool.

Is it just me or are those C500 racers some of the best looking cars ever. I love the view when they are coming out of the turns and you can really see the awesome Charger stance and that tough looking grille. Wow
