    Another similarity (Who mentioned on this site?  :clueless: ) is to the grill on the new Chargers....

    We all know '73 was the best year for Challengers, but only a few of us will actually admit it!

    72.  Same great grill, without the ugly bumper guards.

    If I was to ever buy an E body, it would be a 72 Challenger.

    The year that was the greatest was 1970 for the Challenger.  I am the same way with the Barracuda it has to be the 1970.

    I've owned Barracudas ('71 being my favorite Barracuda) and Challengers of various years. Never liked the bumper guards, but that's a simple fix. What I do like is the 70 or 71 Challenger front end/grills and the 72-74 Challenger rear ends. Anybody know of anyone doing a marriage of this type? I think a '70 Challenger with a '72-'74 ass end would look really cool.  :thumbsup: Just my personal taste!! You know what they say about opinions!!! :smilielol: :smilielol:

    There is a movie that was made in the 90's that has what looks like a red '72 Challenger with a '70 front end on it.  I'll try to find the title to it.  I think it has the decesed Brandon Lee in it.
