Who has more fun than people!
68 Charger R/T    74 Challenger Rallye 
12 Challenger RT Classic    15 Challenger SXT
79 Macho Power Wagon clone    17 Ram Rebel

R/T's 4 R/P

As it states at the end of the video, this is accurate as of Sept 1, 1969.
Probably filmed even earlier.
The orange Six Pack car has pilot car hood pin locations.
All the cars have the grill logo in various places.
Interesting that the Slap Stick words show up on the automatic shifter. Based on common understanding the early cars didn't have that.

Looks like this was filmed along Hwy 1 in California.  Anyone recognize the area?

It seems we've been pronouncing the name all wrong. It's not Chal-en-jer, it's Shal-an-jair.  :haha:

Really weird listening to the fake French accent.
Who were they marketing to?

I dunno, hopefully you could dump her though and pick up someone a little less annoying with your new Challenger.

I feel sorry for the sales people that had to watch the whole video!

they state there were only 18 colors available.   Isn't there a bunch more than that?
And only 5 colors could get painted mirrors? 

That song was horrible.  horrible horrible.  Was this an advertisement for the French cars?

yes there are only 18 colors until pink & green-go in the spring for 20 total
the year started with 5 painted mirrors - all 18 by January & the two more in the spring

lots of changes during the year, or never made production based on images in the "filmstrip"
15" ROAD wheels
fratzog on roof of vinyl top cars
flat hood cars with chrome tips
BLACK "SE" finish panels

the history behind "SLAP STICK", "SHIFT GATE" & BLANK will probably never be know:
     was it one each for E, B & A-body? 
     was it Dodge VS. Plymouth on the early drawing boards? 
     was it random based on a swap meet used car part salesman decades after their original installation?
