Yep, don't try to fight it...there is no known cure.

If you try to resist, it will only hurt your wallet. :devil:

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. :)

if you really try to resist, you will end up like silver r/t and revere ricers so much you use saki as a power adder.

I have always liked first generation cars.  There's nothing wrong with you.

First gens ROCK! They have the coolest interors ever installed in a production automobile.

As a second gen owner who hopes to one day own another second gen (I have a '69 and dream of also owning a '68), all I can say is how can you NOT like the first gens?  They're awesome cars.  The only reason I'm not seeking one out is that I have other Chargers and other mopars on my dream list, and I'm not made of money.

Yes there is a cure. All you need is the '06 vaccine and the disease will not spread beyond 1974.

Stay away from the first gens - far, far away. It's difficult enough for me to find parts.
Sixty-eights look great and the '69 is fine.
But before the General Lee there was me - Headrope.

I was only buying mine because it was going to be a cheap daily driver while I searched for another 69.   Seven years later it now qualifies as the longest I've ever kept a car.   First gens are very addictive.

Flee find another car to like, Mustang, Camaro or Chevelle.

There are plenty of those parts to go around. Another Charger owner in this hobby just makes the available parts left fewer and more expensive. And the only known cure for this disease is throwing large amounts of cash at a piece of steel.

Pick a nice generic rice burner and add large amounts of plastic and decals and you will cure your sickeness for this hobby.........

I have it so bad, I'd even put a Shelby Charger and an 06 brick in my driveway....

AFTER I round out the collection with the first, second, and third gens as well as a replica of the Charger II.
*wakes up* Dang! It was just a dream. Again!

No,
all chargers aren't beauty.
I hate 66 charger.
that was my mind :slap:
Excuse me, my english language isn't good

As someone said, 66-67 chargers had the cool interior.... but GUESS WHAT? You can put 4 bucket seats and get the gauges made up for a 2nd gen charger to. THEN You would have something interesting (might do that to mine....)

I personally dont like 66-67 chargers... a fast back charger... i dunno what Chrysler was thinking, it aint a mustang!

But for the rarity and "interesting look" as it looks very unique...

Go for it.  :2thumbs:

The 66-67 charger just made for old men/women, no young men/women.

As a guy who has "been there, done that", I don't recommend it. Dropping all that cool '66 stuff into a second gen is not as easy as one might imagine. And I haven't even started on the dashboard yet...
