I was at a Chargers game at Balboa Bowl in the early 60's and can remember the "new Dodge Charger" being introduced to the public at half time. My impression was that it had been named after the football team. The football team was named after credit cards used by team founder Barron Hilton (owner of the hotel chain).
In 1977 the base Charger and Charger Sport were dropped as this body style became part of the newly named B-body Monaco line, and only the Charger SE and Charger Daytona were offered. Sales dropped to 36,204. In 1978 only about 2,800 Chargers were produced (likely to use up leftover stock of 1977 trim parts), after which it was replaced by the similar 1978 Dodge Magnum. that is the time where they stopped making original charger.
there IS no general grant..the car in the dukes of hazzard is named the general LEE
