Nicest One Left? 1987 Dodge Omni

Petty Blue Project: 1972 Dodge Charger SE

Third-generation Dodge Chargers (1971-74) took on “fuselage” styling like other cars in the Chrysler fold. They also began to feel the woes of detuning to run on unleaded fuel and other emissions-savings initiatives. By 1972, all the really big… more»
