Im looking at a 77 Charger (same thing). But you keep saying 75. The Magnum was only made from 78-79. Funny...you dont see em anymore. I like the flip up clear covers, to bad it doesnt have the t bar roof
The Magnum is what Dodge came up with when they quit with the Charger nameplate after 1977. The Charger was just Dodges version of the Cordoba after they dropped the 1971 - 1974 body style. Only difference between the two were the grill,taillights and nameplate. Then for 1978 they kept everything from the Charger and changed the header panel so it would take 4 square headlights and changed the name to Magnum. Believe it or not Chrysler called these cars the "small" Chryslers!
Cereal, can I ask you a question? How is it that in some of the cars that you display here, the key-in-ignition/fasten seat belts buzzer isn't working at all? Do you disconnect those? I for one would like to hear them
That brake light will also come on if you lose pressure in any of your brake lines. When driving my 1976 Cordoba, my brake pedal got soft and the light came on. It still had front brakes, as a rear brake line rusted out by one of the drums. So that light can be more than just the emergency brake, but that is probably the problem. I see someone didn't like the catalyst sticker in the door jamb, as it is scraped off, I did the same thing to my car. I do like the looks of the magnums a lot. :)
I hope you are not driving with the parking brake on that is what the light is for. How do those turn signal things come out of the front, I need to replace one on mine.
i've never seen a dodge magnum... but i've seen some kind of dodge 4-door with those covered lights just can't remember what its name was... That thing is definately retro... :)
Hood mechanism reflects Chrysler's experience with torsion bar suspensions. They decided to use torsion bars to hold up the hood. While other companies that used spring suspensions use springs to hold up the hood.
It's a lovely car, it's a petty there's a certain douchebag on the ED.Ch forums who stole this car brand name to use for trolling purposes.

Awesome car, Wish it weren't so far away. On a side note, the new Magnums were made in Canada.

wow nice interior! Chrysler is known for recycling old model names like Magnum, 300, Town & Country, Aspen etc.

usually when that light that says "BRAKE" is on that means your E-Brake is on
