I still say the '68 is the best looking Charger. Dukes of Hazzard be damned.

Fun fact, during filming, only one Charger was used for filming, while 5 Mustangs were used. I guess it couldn't handle those hills and McQueen. So much for 'Built Ford Tough'

True fact: There were 2 Mustangs and 2 Chargers used for the entire movie. The Mustangs had engine and chassis mods while the Chargers only received chassis mods.

I'm 95% sure two Mustangs and two Chargers were used. One of the Mustangs was written off in the final moments of the chase when it nearly Orlove'd into a ditch but the other is still out there somewhere. As for the Chargers, one was a 440 R/T while the other was a non-R/T Charger. Obviously one was wrecked and I believe the other was junked too.
The Chargers did have to hold back a bit during filming so they didn't take off away from the Mustangs though, so there's that.

Apparently, the surviving Mustang exists in an Ohio River valley barn. We need to get a Jalopnik car hunt and hit the roads to find it.
