1966 Dodge Charger
1966 Dodge Charger
Officially introduced on December 6, 1965
Though Dodge for some reason held back it's advertising campaign until Christmas Day {December 25, 1965}.
Was supposed to be the 'new' Mid-Sized Sports-Musclecar with a 'Street-Friendly' 383/325 HP Big Block.
With the 383/325 HP, the {#3650 lb. Shipping Weight} Charger was supposed to make a dent at the Drag Strip
in the 'D/Stock' Class.
So much so, that the Southern California Dodge Dealers Association 'sponsored' '4' 383/325 HP Charger's
to compete at the 1966 AHRA and 1966 NHRA Winternationals held in Southern California in February.
