The Muscle Automobile and Corvette Nationals 2022 featured two shows paying homage to Chrysler’s NASCAR homologation specials: Wings Over America and the Wellborn Aero Warriors Invitational. The homologation guidelines for NASCAR required the manufacturing of 500 items for 1969, and the principles for 1970 had been modified to 1 instance per dealership. As such, 580 Dodge Charger 500, 503 Dodge Charger Daytonas and virtually 2000 Plymouth Street Runner Superbirds had been constructed.

The 1969 Charger 500 was based mostly on the R/T mannequin and due to this fact got here customary with a 375-horsepower 440 Magnum, with the 426 Hemi as an possibility. The foremost modifications was a flush grille (through one borrowed from a 1968 Coronet) and the backlite’s flying buttresses smoothed out for a flush rear window. The 1969 Charger Daytona improved on that components by including a extra aerodynamic nostril cone and a tall spoiler. The 1970 Superbird tweaked what labored on the Daytona, however contractor Inventive Industries determined so as to add a vinyl roof to manufacturing variations to cover the tough work it had finished to the roof, relatively than spend the time to easy out the sheetmetal. Commonplace engine was a 440 Tremendous Commando, the identical 375-horse engine customary on the Charger R/T, however now the 440 Six-Barrel was out there along with the 426 Hemi.

Charger 500s and Daytonas had been out there in any Charger shade, however the Superbird was restricted to a number of colours, although three or 4 automobiles are recognized to have been in-built colours not out there for the Superbird (although out there for the Street Runner).
