 Welcome to the site Henrik, i spent a month in Denmark in 1978 - at Ulsrup Slot and a week in your capital city of Copenhagen - the journal I kept is entitled "30 days in Denmark or 101 pubs"...  :yesnod:  :cheers:
Anyhow,.. as Regards your friends charger,.. the were no sixpacks after 1971, some were rumored to be built in 1972 but are actually thought to be owner or dealer installed with leftover items...
and so,..  a '73 SE brougham is not even a remote possibility it is a modified car,.. still cool though,.. we'd like to see pics and read details on that one if you can get it/them.
I love your Charger sounds like some cool stuff you have planned but i have doubts about the bumble bee stripe matched with a 318, bumble bee stripes usually mean the car has an engine that's not to be messed with,..
but it's all good, glad your here!  :2thumbs:
  :P wow! getting infected in Mothers whom your next door nabor had sounds kinda' nasty...  :lol:

I'll take exception to the "rumored to be" part Brock because I am fairly certain that three of those cars have been documented and verified.

Brock Samson

 Well, I haven't seen the documented info verified so it's simply my understanding,.. to this point...
I would be interested in seeing/learning about them and I am (usually) open to being enlightened.
..just not right now..
I'm kidding with you of course...
  :scratchchin: Can we agree there were no '73 Sixpacks?..  :shruggy:

Welcome Hendrik, your car looks great! i also have a 72 check out pete's third gen website
http://www.1971-1974dodgecharger.com/
As for 6 pack 73 charger's there were none. There were 2 factory 72 charger's with a 6 pack and 2 Plymouth Road runner's with a 6 pack known to have come out of the factory.

i found a picture of my buddys 73, the story goes that it was imported to denmark when it was almost new, the owner of the danish crysler import traded a new mercedes for it, the storie goes that it as an executive car that was never sold at any dealership it soposedly belonged to a crysler executives son. my boddy bought it in 1978 at the time it was browm meallic and he claims he bought it with the sixpack set up, he did some things to it in order to race it and its still very fast he stroked it and some other thing adding hideaway headligts from a 72 se. videning rear qarters in order to clear 305 tires. i dont know if its rare or not but he says hes never seen another ´with the 440 six pack like his anywhere not even on the web. as for mine she runs like a dream i will leave it like she is but should it happen that a hemi or a bigblock in the same condition shows up, then i wont say no. but thoes cars are so expensive i wont be able to find the cash. so ill just enjoy mine as is she sounds great and will look great, i know the bumplebee stribe is for cars with real muscle but it looks so good i cant help but put one one mine.

Six Pack engines stopped in 1971 except for 4 illegally built factory Chargers and RoadRunners on the first day of production in '72.

Six Pack Jensen Interceptor engines in England kept going till '73 though. :scratchchin:

maybe somebody added the sixpack before it came here,im not a wizard on numbers and there is no way of knowing for sure,anyway hes happy with it the way it is.im happy with mine even if its just the "small" engine i would of course like a big block or a hemi but thats not possible with wife house and kids.
