Chaz & AJ Monthly Meal at Brewport 6/26/19
AJ’s Car of the Day: 1979 Dodge Magnum GT
Car: Dodge Magnum GT
Year: 1979
What makes it special: Dodge’s Magnum model debuted for the 1978 model year to supplement the Charger model, and was available in either the “XE” or “GT” versions. Magnum was the last of Chrysler’s B-platform models. It featured four rectangular headlights that sat behind clear, retractable covers, narrow Opera style rear quarter windows and your choice of optional T-bar or power sunroof.
What made it famous: The Dodge Magnum was a well-appointed car that featured power steering, brakes and seats. It was a performer with adjustable longitudinal torsion bars, lower trailing links and front and rear anti-sway bars. Base powerplant was the lean-burn 318 V8, with either a two- or four-barrel 360 or 400 cu in V8 were optional. The GT model sported a rear “GT” stripe.
Why I would want one: I like it because it’s not very common. It being a GT model makes it even cooler.
Fun fact: The Magnum was kind of a rounded-off Charger, and was created in response to getting a car eligible for NASCAR qualification, seeing as the Magnum was more aerodynamic while the Charger wasn’t.

AJ’s Car of the Day: 1965 AMC Rambler Marlin
Car: AMC Rambler Marlin
Year: 1965
What makes it special: AMC’s Rambler Marlin was a personal luxury car built for model years 1965 to 1967. A halo car for the company, it’s fastback roof design was taken from the 1964 Rambler Tarpon show car.
What made it famous: Standard on the Marlin were reclining front seats, and it was one for the first American cars with standard front disc brakes. Engine choices ranged from the 145hp, 232 inline-6 to the AMC-designed, 270hp, 327 cu in, 4-barrel V8. Transmission choices were a floor console automatic, or the “Twin-Stick” manual transmission with overdrive, and was backed by a “Twin-Grip” limited slip rear.
Why I would want one: I have wanted one of these for years. Love the fastback design and the 327 V8 with the Twin-Stick manual transmission. Ahead of it’s time.
Fun fact: Many people dispute the fact that the 1966 Dodge Charger bears striking body style resemblance to the 1965 Rambler Marlin.
