How many Sigma and Galant parts do you see in swap meets down in Vic?
Out of all the swap meets I've been to in the last 5 years, all I have seen in Newcastle is grills and tail lights.

That's a tidy looking Charger BTW... Does anyone know what the No.4 on the side means, I haven't seen that on them before (or haven't noticed).

It was only a small Swapmeet as the have the main one early in the year which is called The Super Suthern Swapmeet which is the largest swapmeet in Australia.

I think the 4 means 4 barrel, as in carbi on the V8's

All the '4' means is it has a 4spd gearbox.

[Galant_GT0]

That makes sense, the 3 speed was so bad the 4 speed was certainly worth bragging about

[75wagon]

Thanks, I didn't know what t 4 meant. I suppose the 4 speed gearbox makes sense.
I knew it was a 6 cylinder though. You can see the Hemi 6 pack sticker on the rear guard.

yeah the four is for four speed
but there nothing to bragg about ,single rail borg warner piece of sh---- and yeah the shifter fell out at every oppotunity even worse than sigma's
thay should have used the doug nash boxes but no local content laws screwed us !

Hi, not sure what the 4 actually means, but it was only ever given to the E49 chargers. These were the fastest of the lot. Of course it's likely that this one is just a replica as E49s are worth ultra-mega-megabucks nowadays.

From Wikipedia:

"In 1972, option E49 was released for the Charger R/T, whereby a more powerful (quoted at 302 bhp) version of an E38-style engine was mated to a four speed manual gearbox. This engine produced remarkable torque on a seven bearing configuration which enabled considerable power development previously unobtained from 6-cylinder engines and not surpassed until the Porsche Turbo 911 (300) release of 1975"
