Internally slated as the VL, this Charger was renamed CL at the last minute to match Chrysler's new corporate naming across the range.
The VK dropped Valiant script for Chrysler badges alone, the moment the car quietly stopped being a Valiant at all.
When the imported 340 V8 ran out mid-production, Chrysler simply raided the long-wheelbase Chrysler by Chrysler sedan for its 360 V8 instead.
The E49 Charger's straight-six made so much torque off its seven-bearing bottom end that no production six-cylinder matched it again until Porsche's 911 Turbo arrived in 1975.
Chrysler's factory withdrawal from Australian touring car racing at the end of 1972 effectively ended the R/T along with the VH series.
The 340 V8 in this SE only existed because a Bathurst homologation ute test at Mallala went badly and Chrysler had 336 engines to unload.
Chrysler widened the Charger's axle beyond any American A-body, running a 5x114.3mm bolt pattern the US wouldn't adopt until 1973.
