Charger | The legendary Dodge with the impeccable styling, best known for being on the Dukes of Hazzard. |
Coronet and Super Bee | The premium Dodge when first introduced, the Coronet eventually fell to the bottom of the line, and then resurfaced in the middle; in the muscle-car era it spawned the famous Dodge Charger and, later, the Super Bee, Dodge's answer to the Road Runner. |

Barracuda | The famous muscle car...and the earlier, partly-forgotten Eurostyle sports cars. |
Belvedere | We have an extensive review of the innovative and trend-setting 1955 Belvedere, and lots of information on the later years as well, through the 1970s when the Belvedere spawned the Road Runner and GTX. |
C Bodies | Fury and VIP (discussed along with general C-body stuff) |

Road Runner | Beep beep! The legendary high-performance Plymouth. Take a Satellite, rip out the insulation and any other forms of weight, put in a good if bone-jarring suspension and exceedingly powerful engine, and you have a decent priced, incredibly fast car. Then simply apply the name to a Fury and a Volare... |
Satellite | A chronological history of the successful B-bodies. |
Plymouth Volare | A complete history with technical and acceleration figures. It's a large page, even without graphics, so give it some time. Some Volare Road Runner information. |
