1974 Dodge Charger

1974 was a virtual rerun of 1973 other than a slighty revised grille, the biggest news was that the Rallye option was dropped (along with the 340 engine option). All other engine options remained the same. A four speed transmission was still an option except with the 440 engine. Emphasis in these years turned to luxury instead of performance, hence the high sales figures for the SE model, but one could still option a Charger with respectable performance options if one were so inclined and turn in decent performance figures for the day. The Charger, however, was no longer considered a performance car, and was gradually turned into personal luxury car, because all manufacturers "saw the handwriting on the wall." The end of the muscle car era came to a close, and the 1975 Dodge Charger would be the final nail in the coffin. |
