1973 Dodge Charger 400

This 1973 Dodge Charger Rallye Hardtop Coupé represents the late and highly distinctive phase of the classic Mopar muscle car era. The third-generation Charger combined strong American muscle car presence with increased comfort, bold styling and a more exclusive character than many pure performance cars of its period.

What makes this particular example especially attractive is its combination of 340 cu in / 5.6-litre “340 Magnum” V8, 4-speed manual transmission, Hurst shifter, Rallye appearance, black interior and documented condition. While many Chargers of this era were delivered with smaller engines or automatic transmissions, this car offers the configuration that is particularly appealing to collectors and drivers: rare, sporty, manual and visually distinctive.

The car presents itself in a classic brown/black colour combination with Rallye side graphics, black vinyl roof, black interior and well-matched period details. Its long bonnet, distinctive front end, wide rear and iconic Charger design elements give the car a powerful presence without appearing overdone.

According to the available documentation, the Dodge comes with Austrian individual approval and a 2024 valuation report confirming condition grade 2. This makes the car especially interesting for collectors of classic American vehicles as well as buyers looking for a documented, already Europe-approved Mopar.

History & Classification

The Dodge Charger Rallye was the sportier version within the Charger range in the early 1970s. The Rallye package gave the car a more dynamic appearance, sportier details and a clearer distinction from the more comfort-focused Charger models.

Cars equipped with the 340 cu in V8 and 4-speed manual transmission are significantly more desirable today than basic small-block or automatic versions. The 340 Magnum is regarded as a responsive, robust and highly popular Mopar V8, especially when paired with a manual gearbox for an authentic muscle car driving experience.

With Austrian approval, appraisal documentation and a confirmed condition grade, this Charger is particularly attractive for the German-speaking and wider European classic car market.

Summary

A rare and highly characterful 1973 Dodge Charger Rallye 340 Magnum with 4-speed manual transmission, Hurst shifter, strong colour combination, European registration history and condition grade 2 appraisal. An authentic Mopar classic for collectors and drivers looking for something more distinctive than a standard Charger.
