Chrysler Valiant Charger - CL Charger

CL Charger

The CL series Charger was introduced in late October 1976 and ultimately turned out to be the last Charger model made in Australia. This series featured new front bodywork and was expected to be designated as the VL series, but Chrysler decided to rename it CL to reflect the corporate Chrysler name which was now being applied over the whole range of cars sold in Australia.

The Charger XL variant was deleted (except for police duties) such that the CL series offered only the Charger 770 for public sale.

CL Charger Drifter (A34, A49 options) : Late in the life of the CL Charger, Chrysler introduced the Drifter Pack option which was made available in four body colour choices, namely Spinnaker White (A34), Impact Orange (A49), Sundance Yellow (A49), and Harvest Gold (A49). This was basically a cosmetic option based around features found on the Chrysler Drifter panel van. These cars were available in a choice of 265ci or 318ci engines, but only with 4-speed manual transmission.

Chrysler's manufacturing production of the Charger ceased on 16 August 1978.
