There is a new series on HBO called Bridge & Tunnel set in early 80s. On the street 2nd episode is a 73-4 Charger.
 
Hot Rods to Hell,The Lively Set
Yeah I've had Hot Rods to Hell
set on auto record on my DVR for about 5+ years
still hasn't ever shown on the channels I get

cool old Gasser style Vett,
with sort of greaser beatniks/car group & a blonde bimbo
& a jacked-up 56 (? IIRC) Belair chasing the old couple
& their "hotter teen daughter" around in the Calif. Hi-desert
(portrayed like the car culture was 'thought of' in the 50's - 60's
even into the 70's by mainstream Hollyweirdos
)

one of my favorites a young kid, even then it was an older flick
 
its a Mad Mad Mad World!!


I watch that probably once a year too
it's a long movie too, like 3+ hrs IIRC, lots of cool old cars
some funny/slapstick comedy stuff too
 
Fair number of Mopars on the Beverly Hillbillies.
