Now you will know why there are not many left. I bet the stunt drivers had bad backs. It is said that they used between 256 and 321 1969 and 68 Chargers making the series that ran from 79 - 85. They know of 20 of the original cars still around. I saw one in a guys garage in Ohio while out picking parts in March this year.

No telling how many kids tried to do the same and totaled their cars. They were cheap back then a few hundred dollars each.

I read something along the lines of over 900 cars used and that despite the low prices they actually almost ran out of Chargers at a certain point, talking up people at gas stations and ringing the bells at houses where there was a Charger in the driveway to buy their cars.

What a shame!
