NOVEMBER 1995 CHRYSLER CL CHARGER DRIFTER

1977 saw the once-exalted Charger on its final gasps and Chrysler keen to do anything that would shift remaining cars. The decals were cut-down versions of the stripes fitted to Drifter vans and cars finished in white had a special ‘strobe’ strip across the back. Just 75 were made and this is the only one seen since November 2000 when we put an orange Drifter on the magazine’s cover. Charger values since the early 2000s have zoomed and this car will today generate strong money.

SINCE THEN: Ignored except in E 38/ E 49‘ Bathurst’ guise, Chargers are making some market inroads. Scar city( so long as the stripes are still there) will give the Drift era collectible edge over more commonmodels.
