The Valiant Charger was released in August 1971, two months after the release of the VH Valiant sedan and wagon. Its striking style made an instant impression. It was the right car at the right time and it had the benefit of one of Australia’s most successful television advertising campaigns.

The normal Charger was available with a choice of ‘Hemi’ six-cylinder engines in 215, 245 and 265 cubic inch capacities, or 318 and 360 V8s. The high performance R/T was also offered with the ‘Six Pack’, a 265 with triple Weber 45DCOE carburettors and full exhaust extractors. At the time, these features had only been seen on European exotica such as Ferrari, Maserati and Alfa-Romeo. Even the ‘Six Pack’ came in two versions; the E37, which had stump-pulling torque at low revolutions, and the E38 which was tuned for maximum top-end power.
