An ad from 1972. He calls the truck a sweptline at 18 seconds.

I thought they were only called sweptline through 1971... well, apparently they tried to keep the name alive in 1972. I think the 1972 trucks are ugly compared to the earlier sweptline ones..

1969 Charger SE - Dodge Fever - Same pretty girl.


1969 Charger, Charger RT and a Charger White Hat Special
