What car is this in the photo?

[Suicide_Scott]

I have a vintage photo that looks like a 66-67 charger, but I do not think it is. It appears to say Charger on the emblem, but I am not believing it. This is a photo from New Zealand sometime in the 70s or 80s.

Any identification help is much appreciated.

I bet it is a charger that they did extreme mods to in the 70s or 80s, maybe a concept car if they even made concepts like that at the time

It's an australian Charger. Saw one at the Spring Fling this year.

Still lots of Aussie Chargers down here too. They are getting quite collectable.

They could also be got with 318, 340 and I think 360 V8's. There were racing specials that command over $100K when they come on the market.

You could own my 1 of 11 Hemi Coronet 4 speed for $30 less than that.

...but the "top dog" was the 265 Hemi straight six!! Although I'm sure an LA powered one would be a heck of a lot easier to find parts for over here.

But what if your Hemi Coronet had a racing history that saw it compete with the likes of Petty or Yarborough or was even driven by them? Some of these Aussie chargers have a pedigree in a race that is considered the greatest race in the world (in our eyes), would I still get it for $30K less?

The Great Race! Any car that was ever raced there is the holy grail for collectors.

Such a pity that you have to drive all that distance on the wrong side of the car.......

My statement was based on YOUR comment of those cars commanding over $100K. You could buy MINE for $70K.

I doubt this one must be a “Charger” looks like in the mid of 80’s. I am pretty excited to see the front view of this classic vehicle.
