Frank Booth (played by Dennis Hopper) is one of the most menacing movie villains of all time. And he had a very menacing car: a 1968 Dodge Charger. Director David Lynch seems to favor Mopars for many of his movies and we’ll be sure to feature a bunch of them. For now check out the famous “joyride” scene after the jump! (I’ve also included the scene in Spanish, which starts a bit earlier and has more of the Charger.)
This was posted on Hemmings last month and touched off a firestorm of debate. Only 33 Hemi cars were built in 1971. Was this white 1971 Charger R/T truly the last? Read through the 150+ comments and decide for yourself.
Hmmmm, that cut out in the hood doesn’t look quite big enough, does it..? Side shot after the jump! Via Reddit
I saw a Cool Vanilla Magnum in traffic the other day and was struck by how unique that color looks. It’s a very creamy white that looks great in my opinion. I couldn’t find any photos online that really do it justice–the photo below from 300Cforums came closest. This color saw a fairly limited production between 2005 and 2006 with a brief return in 2008 on some Chargers. More infe at Chargerforums and LXforums.
Like Instagram? So do we. So how about this late model Charger with Gorilla Pokes? Says Chargerfam who posted this pic: “Lets Not hate…It’s a Texas thing…”
Out of five stamps total, Ma Mopar scored two stamps on the new USPS Muscle Car Stamps: a 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona and a 1970 Plymouth Hemi ‘Cuda (which you can see after the jump). Not bad! Get them today before they’re gone! Via USPS
