Grafting a fastback onto its popular mid-sized B-Body Coronet, Dodge hoped to lure sporty buyers with a new-for’66 two-door called Charger. Shoppers finding the sister division Plymouth’s A-body Barracuda too diminutive might slide into a roomier Charger with its unique hidden headlight grille. Arriving in concert with the 426 cid Hemi, the aero-friendly Charger set its sights on NASCAR’s oval tracks as well. This 1967 Dodge Charger in Hammonton, New Jersey comes with a stock-appearing 383 and looks nicely kept inside and out. Check out more pictures and details here on Craigslist where $32,000 puts this classic in your driveway. Thanks to Mitchell G. for spotting this killer “B.”
An aftermarket aluminum radiator should keep things cool, though a nice stocker like this deserves a reproduction 26 inch factory cooler. HotRod specifies Turquoise paint for a non-HiPo 383 in ’67. Maybe our Mopar experts can comment on the color below. Nobody should be ashamed to pop the hood on this tidy two-door. If the hood pin is anything like the dagger-shaped unit on my ’66 Coronet, though, watch your scalp when you stand up after peering into the engine bay.
The seller stands ready to part with the two-door muscle car after a stated 20 years of ownership. That’s a sweet shine on the claimed original paint! A full-width tail light and reflector panel mimics the broad grille.
Round instruments mark a step up from the plebian Coronet unit, and the high console and bucket seats lend a sporty look. The tall chrome shifter stirs a normally bulletproof 727 three-speed automatic transmission.
Though somewhat obscured by this angle, the console continues rearward through the two rear seats, rendering the first-generation Charger an obligate 2+2. The gold upholstery looks nearly perfect and nicely compliments the paint color. Like any proper ’60s ride, this Dodge offers plenty of ash trays for your smokes. Will you make room in your driveway for this turn-key classic Charger?
Nice Charger, but that color makes it look like Grandma’s.
(to fox owner) My kind of Grandma!
The engine code in 67-69 G was 383-2 and H was 383-4 HP. The color of the engine is correct even for the H code. The fender does say 383 commando. Above it reads V8. Ok here’s the rub. If you saw just the V8 by itself you could have… 383-2 or 318. The 383 name plate looks like the correct one on the fender. To me the person slap the V8 on top. The vin number will tell the story. It’s a very nice and clean Charger I would not mine owning. My good friend had a silver 67 Charger with H code and 383 name plates on the fender. It was a nice cruising ride. Good luck to the next owner. 🐻🇺🇸
These first generation Chargers are interesting to look at. Surely not as swoopy as the ’68-’70s but beautiful in their own right. Adding a fastback to the Coronet body wasn’t an easy task. The ’66 has a one piece center console while the ’67 is divided. The second year also received fiber optics for the front fenders.
Beautiful looking car! I’ve always loved this generation Charger. If only more pictures were posted of the car.
These 66 and 67s are my favorite Chargers and always thought that there may be a chance to own one.
But when 32K seems reasonable for a yellow 383 means that I have missed the boat.
My older sisters boyfriend has the exact same car but his was a 4 spd. With black interior. He was a mechanic at a local Dodge dealer and he traded it for a new 69 440 6 pac 4 spd GTX. Both very cool cars then as they are now. I might add he taught my sister how to power shift and she was actually very good . The GTX was a beast! Peace! The price is right for this car
Love the 2 & 2 seating configuration. Slushbox not so much. As for originality, does anyone else think the drivers door is a different shade than the rest of the car? Or is it the sun on the lens?
I have the same car with a 318 and buddy seat, color was yellow CREAM….
photo reminded me of the factory pinstripe across the edge of the roof line, that I never put back (need to take care of that). Mine was a barn rescue out of Floyd, VA sat for 24 years (parked in 77) so now I’ve had it 24 years!! Love those fastback Chargers, 1st factory car in 66 with a factory spoiler, and David Pearson won Nascar title in 66 driving one!
