Nice shot of a cool car, EM. When was this car built? It reminds me of Chargers back in the '60s/'70s, although the styling is somewhat different.

Nice capture. This charger looks like a 1969 or 1970 model. Back then it could have been powered by a 426 Hemi or a 440 Magnum engine. They were definitely fast back then and still are today. That would definitely be my view from any car that I've owned.

All Chryslers built here had the Hemi engines as I recall

Aye the roads aren't wide enough... and more importantly not straight enough, as I found out for myself.

On a recent shoot, I recently had the pleasure of a Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk. This is the one with the Hellcat engine (8-speed automatic, four-wheel drive, 710 HP and 645 lbft Torque). Jeep UK only brought 100 examples into the UK of this fine piece of automative muscle.

I quickly and very affectionally renamed it... the "Bonkers Mobile". It made many other vehicles seem quite tame and pale into insignificance, with a sound of which can only be described as "Petrol Heads" ultimate daydream.

Unless it was the 426 or 440 version usually that was only a momentary glimpse, as I passed it.
