The mild custom interior make this Charger stand apart from all
others.The Charger made its debut in mid-1966. Sharing its chassis
and front-end sheet-metal with the mid-sized Coronet, the Charger
"still looked a lot like a Coronet or AMCs conceptually similar
Rambler Marlin ... [and] substantially more expensive than
either.The Charger with a $3,100 base price "was immediately paired
up in the automotive press with American Motors' year-old Marlin,
another fastback specialty machine that came in at around $2,850"
and some called the Charger "a good-looking Marlin."The Charger's
interior was different from all other cars with its pseudo-bucket
back seats folded down to interior space accessible via the rear
hatch."The Charger didn't begin with the performance/ muscle car
image, though you could get a Hemi with it."The Charger evolved
into possibly the top Chrysler-made muscle car.
