I definitely respect and admire the creativity of the Brazilian Mopar design team for creating their own personalized style of Dodge performance and in my opinion it looks better than it's American brothers in arms! Finally the Mopar Boys from Brazil 🇧🇷 are getting the recognition that they deserve 👍.
Like this Charger, some Dodges and Ford models were exclusively designed for the brazilian market! The Ford Galaxie, Ford Maverick GT, Dodge Magnum, Dodge LeBaron…
@@chrisharper2326 you see tho!!! All of this is parts bining and its really fascinating to see how they did it in a lower wage nation. I met the guy again last weekend, he is Brazilian from Rio de Janiero State, he had it imported here from there. There are alot of well to do Portuguese speaking folks in North Jersey so you see things like this every so often.
@@broncomcbane6382 yep, special package with existing parts, except the cool grille. IMO the sail panel or buttress is kind of awkward looking. If I had the means i'd like to build a custom fastback "Darger", think 65-67 Charger fastback Dart. Had a '67 GT family car that became my first car that I sold in '84. Found it again on the internet but it's now in Germany! It's got me wanting one again, but money is really tight.
@@chrisharper2326 awkward lookimg becauze A bodies were light and slender. B bodies were coke bottle shaped. Those buttress panels extend the roof line past the crease in the trunk lid not before. The grille is the piece de la resistence. The amber turn signal is cheap just a heavy dutu truck clearance lamp. But it has enough punch to look superb. You know IF this came to the US this would kill on the smaller Dart coupe body post-1971. I would have cheapened the 1974 style 2 pod taillamps like.Ford.did for the Mercury Cyclone(Which I also recorded at this very same show). Then stock 360 V8.
Hey bronco love the video! i want to drop here some informations abour this car: Chrysler operations in argentina and brazil were completely independent from eachother. Chrysler/ dodge only existed in brazil because the french car manufacturer Simca "forced" them to buy all factories including the brazilian one. They made redesigned simca cars like the Chrysler Esplanada and the Regente GTX for a short period before launching the dart in 69 Only the 318 was offered for the dart/charger in brazil. if i'm not mistaken the charger came initially with a version of the 318 with higher compression.
Esse é um Dodge Charger R/T 1975, amarelo Montego (Brasil) esse modelo foi fabricado entre os anos de 1973 até 1978. A partir de 1979 foi lançada uma nova linha com a mesma carroceria porém com frente e traseira redesenhadas, sendo eles os modelos Magnum (2 portas) e Le Baron (4 portas) fabricados até 1981 quando a Chrysler do Brasil foi comprada pela Volkswagen que encerrou a sua produção.
@@CBCC-x1u this is a real Charger just not made for the US market. And you clearly have to know this is a parts bin car. Most of the items used to build these cars were previous model year items

Would have been fascinating to see its sales response in the US next to Demon 340s and Aspen Roadrunners.

@@matheuspires711 yea the Galaxie was the Landau and it was a more.luxurious car there than here
It has the same body style that's similar to the 67-69 Dodge darts,A-body platform
@@CherokeeForce ye

Freaking awesome 👌
Great info 👍
67-69 body, 68 GTS hood, roof buttress extensions are added on not a different roof. Thanks for posting it!

Correct, and those extended C pillars were also on a handful of Australian Valiants called 'Mexicanas.'

@@willpon6230 thanks for the extra information. We didnt get A body Chargers in the US.
@@broncomcbane6382 "Mopar or no car"
Late 60's Road Runner at the rear
The real charger roof tunnel back starts at the top of the roof not the middle of the roof
