- 1967 Dodge Charger 426 Hemi Factory Auto Show Car Muscle Car Of The Week Episode # 147
The automakers will often send specially optioned versions of new production cars to the annual Auto Shows to show off the best example of a particular model. In this episode, we're looking at just such a car… a 1967 Dodge Charger with the 426 Hemi V8 that was built for the 1967 International Auto Show. It's a great car and one with a load of cool options from The Brothers Collection.

Pop worked for Chrysler, as a wood model maker, during the 60's and 70's. He worked on the dashboard and arm rests of this car. And yes, he owned one of these. I loved riding in that car!! It is too bad it was totaled, by a stoned out hippie who ran into it with a Galaxy 500, in 1973. I had hoped to own one of these before my time was up on Earth. Doesn't look that is going to happen. Oh well. I have my memories, and lots of video to watch on the web. Thanks for this awesome video!
Always loved the style of the '67 Charger.
love the '66/'67 chargers. tnx Kevin
I had a 1974 Charger hard top, but this one and the 1966 Charger will always be my favorite car.
Why were the head lights turned out ? Should of shown the Glowing dash lights on ! I had a "66" w/ 318 polyspherical block. Great Car !!!
One of your better burn outs..Thanks
I had a '66 Charger in the early '70s and LOVED that car. It was VERY dependable and looked great (especially after I fixed it up with mag wheels, "Wide Oval" tires, slightly jacked up in the back (Gabriel High Jackers) and dual exhaust.....the color was B-5 Brite Blue Metallic). Mine also had a RARE factory AM-FM radio in it (very few FM stations back then) and standard PS / PB. These came stock (as you saw in the video) with 4 bucket seats where the rear 2 fold down flat and that console that went all the way to the back. The rear deck would also fold down into the trunk compartment very nicely for those occasional "dates" at the local Drive Inn Theater..... ;-)
Nice ride. When I was in the Navy back in 1972 I was able the buy a '66 Charger 383 4 speed. I had to go on a 6 month deployment. The car was stolen and I was never able to recover it. To this day I miss that car.
Great show. My favorite generation of Charger. Fix those headlights MuscleCarOfTheWeek/Brothers' collection person. I think they need a curator/mechanic on site...as in me...lol
Those hubcaps look like the ones on the 64 Malibu Z-16 396 Chevelle that car magazines at the time called the worst fake mag wheel covers ever. Cool Charger though, knew a guy with a red one but was the 383.
Yeah holy shit they do look just like the 65 Z16 Malibu SS hubcap's. Never noticed that
The 67 Charger has one of my top 10 favorite interiors of any car made. Chrysler's designers were far better than Ford and most of GM.
67 seemed to be the best looking year for muscle cars no matter what the brand
Love the interior layout on these!
Those hubcaps remind me of hotwheels I had in the 70s and a Big Wheel. lol
Put some rubber under this one she would look mean!
This is my dream car now, used to be the 70 chevelle LS6. But every since I saw this car its my favorite and the reason I am a fan of the original version of mopar cars from the 60s and 70s era
That's my favorite charger
He's impressed that the clock still works. Meanwhile THE HEADLIGHTS DON'T CLOSE!
It probably didn't have them, not all first gen chargers did.
I wondered why it hat the cornet style grill
Everyone wants a '69, I'll take a '66 first then a '67 , over a '68 or '69.
I used to drive a '69 Charger, but I still though the '66 was the nicest looking out of all of them.
Thanks for this! I wonder if any old school car guys might recognize and remember this 67 from the shows they might have attended? I love this design, probably because it was just about my favorite AMT model I put together in the early 70's. Still have it. Silver on red, and Hemi.
I owned and restored a very similar car. It had the 426, auto, ps, pdb, clock, pw, and the same hubcaps. It was F8 green with a white interior. Original dealer bought it from the factory at auction about a year after it was produced, so it served as a show car or executive car of some sort. Since I farmed out the restoration, I lost my behind when I sold it.
Love the four bucket seats
Great video, decent burnout! The thing about the 1st Gen Chargers to me is..thought they look cool on a video or in a magazine..up close and personal, they are just very amazing in the design and execution overall..a very commanding presence and one car i always hope to see at a show.
I love the interior & dash on these, the best of that era in my opinion.
Cheers😊
I COULD HAVE BOUGHT THIS CAR 20 YEARS AGO BUT PASSED BECAUSE IT WAS PIECED TOGETHER FROM MULTIPLE CARS . IT IS THE SHOW CAR BUT SAT FOR YEARS IN ONTARIO CANADA . NICE CAR .
There was a 67 hemi Charger on eBay a few years back for 80K that was an auto show promo car as well. The deck lid spoiler was also mounted backwards but it had headrests on the front buckets
Beautiful car 🚗
Come on, Brothers! Fix the lights and rotate them CLOSED.
Not sure but I think its similar to the Charger 500 for 1969 that had exposed headlights to improve better aerodynamics for nascar although we know that that would soon but be any better untill the Dodge Charger Daytona.
Love it!!!
g'day brothers
It's my favorite Charger but who installed the rear bumber!!!
1967 Charger 363
Not my favorite body style Charger(the 68 is) But i still love it. I love basically all the high performance cars from 1962-71, but Mopar ruled that era
Im surprised you showed this car with the headlights rolled out.
The burnout indicates a 'bit of power'? Oh yeah! Very unique body style....loved it when it came out; love it now.
cool
Nothing really like it in the musclecar world when it comes to the inside. Hidden headlights and full width tailight lens shows they worked that bodystyle for all it was worth. I mean, what can you say about the shape of that rear window? Ingenius is what comes to my mind.
like em? Love em!!!☆☆☆
How difficult was it to close the hood ??!
GEEZ.... and the hidden headlights ???
Rear bumper ?
I bought a new 66-383 maroon/black int., all power and air.
A do-over might be a Coronet 500 or the 67 RT.
I'll take one
That would be "Aerocoupe" styling. . .
Concealed headlights don't work; back bumper bolted on crooked. Not exactly a "no expense spared" restoration. . . .
Very Very few muscle cars I just don't like but this is one of those I don't Isuppose its the fastback style !
I like this car... but why don't use a correct battery ???
Not crazy about the 66-67 Charger but I can't resist the elephant in the room 🐘🏁
I like it but the grill doesn't fit for me
typical headlite motors are bad and lights are locked open lol
66 was a better look imo with the disappearing headlights
Fastback Coronet, but that's ok, because the Coronet was a sweet ride, and this car was the predecessor too the legendary, the mythical 1969 Charger. That aside, this '67 is a very good looking car. Very long, but they managed to style it just right, that it doesn't look as big as it really is. I would certainly not object to driving one.
the original Chargers were all beautiful TWO-DOOR vehicles! .. as they should have been! .. why on earth they morphed into ugly 4-door models is beyond comprehension! Great-looking muscle cars have TWO DOOR bodies! .. not bank robber get away car looking 4-door models!
Real men smoke cheese cutters
The 1968 thru 1970 Charger was so much nicer and futuristic looking than the 1966 & 1967 that there is just no comparison.
Yeah, I prefer the '68 to '70 Chargers also, they also had the 426 Hemi, but the car length was reduced with a more compact rear deck, and reduced wheelbase. That in itself made the car more maneuverable and just as fast as the '67, probably faster with a 4 speed on the floor.
The car was a good idea, but what a boring color!
Thought they were ugly when new and haven't changed my mind 51 years later
richard blackcloud,Iam a proud owner of a 66 charger,this is my 4th 66 charger I have owned since 1979,I love the 66 and 67 chargers,i.love fast backs,and I love the hideaway head lights,I love the taillights that run all across the back,with the block letters spelling out charger,and I love the 4 bucket seats and the full console,and I love the electric luminisint dash,the 66 and 67 charger are beautiful cars,and so unique and different then any car that's out there,they are truly one if a kind,long live the 66 and 67 chregers!!!!!!!!!!!
Long live the 66 and 67 chargers!!!!!!!!!!!!
Its ugly, and they copied the AMC Marlin!
theoriginalmungaman stfu
66 and 67 chargers are beautiful,and I am very proud to say that I own a 66 charger,and would not want any other classic car that's out there
look at the Dodge show car
Sorry, the Charger didn't evolve til 1968.The first two years were a swing and a miss.
Charger look the best from 68-70. The rest are nowhere. This 'hunchback' design looks awkward.
Yeah the 68-70 were the nicest looking but you have to give credit to the other gens too. The 71-74(3rd hen charger) did badass in nascar
Michael Paradisis stfu
I think it's a matter of taste. The first Generation (1966-1967) features a beautiful space age design that was fitting for the culture of the era. You either love it or hate it. I love it! I think it's beautiful and different, because after all everyone and their mom own or want the 68-70 models. This '67 stands out in the crowd of mopars that are overflooded with 68-70's chargers, challengers, Darts and such.
Damn those tires are skinny
