1966 Dodge Charger - Silver (YatMing) 1/18
Product Details Temp out of stock
The Dodge Charger was a response to the fastback fad started by the Mustang and the Barracuda, but on a much larger scale. Based on the midsize Dodge Coronet model, the Charger was launced in 1966 and quickly became a sales hit with its dramatic fuselage styling of 1968. From the beginning, it packed serious muscle, from the 318 V8 to the all mighty 426 Hemi. Finally, the MOPAR street crowd had some serious midsize muscle to bring to the party.
The '66 Charger added an awkward fastback roofline (made better by sweeping C pillars), hidden headlamps, and a full length taillamps. The interior was state of the art with four bucket seats, available consoles in front and back, and full gauges. The rear bucket seats could even fold down to create a cargo area seven feet long. Under the hood, the Charger meant business. Standard was the 318 V8. Most buyers upgraded to the 383 V8. But the 1966 Charger also saw the debut of the most famous engine in musclecar history, the 426 Hemi.

The Dodge Charger debuted in 1966 and reached its styling peak with the 1968–1970 B-body design — one of the most dramatic shapes in American automotive history. The 1969 Charger Daytona was a NASCAR homologation special with a 23-inch aerodynamic nose cone and towering rear wing, with only 503 built. The Charger's role in the Dukes of Hazzard as the 'General Lee' cemented its place in American pop culture, though collectors prize the real high-performance variants far more than their television counterpart.
This 1/18 scale replica of the 1966 Dodge Charger in Silver is produced by YatMing to collector-grade specifications. At 1/18 scale — the most popular collector scale — the model measures approximately 10 inches in length and displays beautifully on a shelf or in a glass cabinet. Every detail — from paint finish to badging — is reproduced from measurements taken from the original vehicle.
