If only they had made it a 2-door...

[Fisher61]

Right on, Harry!

[novadose71]

That's more like it!

[Gray Smith]

thats very interesting and different, and I LIKE IT!

[ViperDave]

I thought the Charger needed a little touch up too. This the the before and after.

Harry, I just looked at your posting from 7/17. (I don't look at all of the headings all that often) We are thinking the exact same way. I have started to build almost this exact same car. I converted the 4 dr to a 2 dr. and was planning almost the same front end treatment (which is taken from the beautiful 68/69 design). My rear end design uses the 69 Charger style tail lights rather then the lights that Chrysler chose. Now I will have to move the build up on this one as I want to see it finished after seeing your great rendering of what Dodge should have done.

I'm looking forward to seeing the finished model!

[sinister]

those are nice concepts. why in the world did chrysler make the charger a 4dr?? completely kills the look. there are no 4dr sports cars!

[Flatearthman]

plus dodge didn't even make it look like a charger, they did a good job with the challenger.
i do like the drawing though

[Danno]

Where's the "01" and the flag?

I dunno- I think you should've lost that Ram pickup grille (the WORST styling element on the new Chargers), and gone with something a bit more 1968-ish, or mabye a honeycomb pattern like on the new Challenger. I think such a treatment would look great as a full-width grille because, well, such treatments DO look good as full-width grilles! Other than that it works.

[Dr. Cranky]

I like it. It's really the only contemporary car I would buy.

[Mike]

I really like the look of the full grille and no headlamps. Great redesign Harry.

[spad007]

It''S wonderful Sir Thank you for showing this..
A thought i have i think the Car is short enough to be a hardtop . Don't get me wrong i like what you did with the car.
and if one did not roll the car the added support won't be needed.

SWEET! thats what dodge shouldve called a charger!

[evilone]

harry just wait a little bit west coast customs will make a four door into a two door. they did it before they'll probably do it again lol. Looks cool though

[Demon9115]

Something i did about a year ago with something called pixelcars,What my idea would of been it they built it.

[thesnake87]

I remember Pixelcars... nice. lol

Love the concepts. Totally agree with everyone. That's what the Charger should have been

[bandit1]

they will never be a charger for me!
all they really are if you think about it is an chrysler 300c rearend with an intrepid front end and charger badging slapped on with a rear wheel drive and a hemi with an "auto" matic basically thats all they consist of!

[thesnake87]

Yep... it's like you can actually see the resemblance of the Challenger, Mustang, and Camaro (I know it's debatable for this one, but I think it's a great tribute to the classic) with their respective classics. The Charger... like you said a rebadged 300C pretty much. Disappointing...
