Both are worthy makers, so the differences are slight and really just a judgment call.![]() ![]() ![]() So...what do you think? |

http://www.imcdb.org/vehicle_2075-Dodge-Charger-R-T-1968.html The model year is wrong on both if I'm not mistaken. The Revell one to me looks like a better effort with more realistic stance and wheel size. The GL looks pudgy compared vs Revell's offering. ![]() ![]() |

Wes, both Chargers are '68s not '69. Its hard for me to pick one from the other as of likes and dislikes. Each brand did a good job on their version of the casting. I don't have the Revell copy in my collection as the Bullitt Charger but I do have their lame attempt on the Fast and Furious Charger which like other diecast companies used an existing casting to fill the spot which was the 1968 Charger R/T. I do agree with Zach the Revell has a better look as for as ride height but I do tend to lean slightly in favor of the GL version as for overall look in the casting. I might not be the best judge in this case because I am extremely partial to this generation Charger and I normally collect this car whenever possible by any of the brands.....LOL |

The 68,69 and 70 Chargers are very close.Yes the cars pictured are 68.The give away is the round tail lights.The 69 has a split front grill and long tail lights.The 70 also has the long tail lights however the front grill goes back to unsplit 68 style although has a chrome ring is added around the grill.The Fast and Furious Charger is a 70. A funny side note.Take a close look at an original Thunder-Jet slot car.It has 68 tail lights and a 69 front grill.Its a 68 1/2 lol.The design department dropped the ball on that one. Eric |
