Title: rare option ?
Post by: ht4spd307 on April 11, 2020, 08:58:45 AM
Hello all don't know if this is a common option but i've never seen a bench seat in a charger  but then again you don't  see many chargers in Australia. She's a rough old girl

70 was the first year for the bench setup, being the standard equipment on Chargers, but R/T and 500.

Rare option also means undesirable option.

Especially in a Charger!

Poor thing was just dissolving like an Alka Seltzer tablet, wherever it was parked.


It's a shame, as it's also rare in the fact that it looks relatively unmolested....

Mine is original with the buddy and like most wanted to change it to a console then reconsidered
Because who wouldn't want to flip that arm up and drive around on a big couch. :shruggy:
Also appears to be a moment stuck in time,beers behind the seat,no A/C.  :cheers:

I ditched the console on my 70, it's cool looking but just collects crap. The cost of replacing it all was saved by using a Winter's Sidewinder with extra long cable let me put the shifter next to me between the seats.

The two with buddy seats are autos on he column. The one with no console or buddy seat is a 4-speed.
