Brazilian Dodge Dart 76 (similar to 69 usa)

Hi 66340sedan.. I'll try to briefly explain Crysler life in Brazil.. I'll post some advertisement pictures to better illustrate

from 1969 to 1970.. crysler was starting production on Brazil. Only dodge Darts (a-body)...
1969 models were sedan from USA... based on 68 USA models. Almost all cars used to be 3 speed column shifter.

here is a tv advertisement from 1969

Propaganda Chrysler Dodge Dart 1969 - Brasil - YouTube

on 1970... Chrysler started to produce coupes (2 door darts). They are rare.

I think that until 1971... nothing really new happens here.
On 71... Chrysler on Brazil started producing our "Charger". Our chargers are a-bodies with C columns inserts... and a different grill... They were equipped with 4 speed floor shifter OR auto trans.





On 72... clusters instruments (based on rally dash) used to have white background. Really nice.

On 72, darts used to have metal from grill. The SE model started to be produced on 72




On 73... darts were equipped with plastic front grill. Totally different dash and clusters instruments. Our "charger" models received a new front end.





dodge SE (special edition)... used to have 3 speed on floor. Black hood, grille and a very different seat covers.


only a few changes until 1979...


Chrysler Brazil finish production on 1980-1981
