Currently listed on AutoHunter is this 1972 Dodge Charger SE. The initials stood for Special Edition, Dodge’s way of suggesting this Charger was more than just a sporty coupe—it was a personal luxury coupe. Note the formal roofline with wide C-pillars, standard vinyl top, accented taillights, bright belt moldings, lower-body pinstripes, concealed headlights, Rallye instrument panel cluster, and available Brougham Package. Standard motivation was a 318ci V8, but this one is powered by the powerful 400 four-barrel, which is paired with a TorqueFlite automatic. Features include an AM/FM stereo, bucket seats, a console, dual chrome racing mirrors with a driver-side remote, chrome exhaust tips, and more. Painted Eggshell White with a black vinyl top over a black vinyl interior, this Mopar B-body comes from the selling dealer in Lafayette, Indiana with a clear title.
The Eggshell White paint is claimed to be original to the car; it is complemented by a black vinyl top. Other exterior features include longitudinal lower-body striping, concealed headlamps, accented taillights, a “Rallye” trunk lid stripe, chrome exhaust extensions with a special rear valence, dual chrome racing mirrors, and Special Edition medallions and badging. A set of 15-inch Rallye wheels are wrapped in staggered-width Cooper Cobra Radial G/T radials—245/60 front, 255/60 rear.
The black vinyl interior features the Brougham Package, which included extra sound insulation, bright pedal dress-up, special door panels, and a cloth and vinyl split-back bench seat with a fold-down armrest; the original buyer opted to substitute bucket seats for the bench. Other features include a center console, air conditioning, simulated woodgrain trim, a three-spoke steering wheel with power steering, and an AM/FM stereo.
All Charger SEs received the Rallye instrument cluster, which included a 150-mph speedometer, clock, and gauges for the oil pressure, temperature, alternator, and fuel.
The odometer shows 75,271 miles, though the title reads mileage-exempt.
The 400ci V8 was rated at 255 (net) horsepower with a four-barrel carburetor and 8.2:1 compression. Electronic ignition was standard with this engine. A three-speed TorqueFlite automatic transmission is paired with the 400.
The undercarriage features front disc brakes and a dual exhaust system featuring nifty chrome tips.
The 1972 Dodge Charger SE was the stepping stone in Charger’s evolution towards a dedicated personal luxury coupe. In the case of this specific AutoHunter Spotlight vehicle, it features both luxury and performance thanks to the powerplant sitting underneath the hood, making it one of 6,669 built for the U.S. market. A combination of luxury and performance is not often found in vehicles of this era, so be poised to place a bid on this Charger because the auction ends on Thursday, October 2, 2025, at 11:45 a.m. (PDT).
