What ever happen to the 1970 Hurst Golden Charger prototype? According to DodgeCharger.com, very little history currently exists about this car. Here’s what we know today; in 1970, Hurst submitted a 300H and this Golden Charger concept to Chrysler for production consideration. Unfortunately the Dodge didn’t make the cut.

The surviving Chrysler 300H was truly an exercise in excess. The massive 300 land yacht came painted in white with gold striping and was outfitted with a custom – and lightweight – snorkled hood and rear decklid featuring a unique integrated spoiler. The Chrysler touted a 440 plant and Hurst shifter.

The 440-equipped Golden Charger was essentially a trim package featuring gold Rallye wheels, a unique rear spoiler, and dual paint stripes that fade from candy apple to gold.

Although this customized Charger never got the green light, some suggest it’s paint scheme turned up on a customized Monte Carlo by Jim Wangers called the Chevrolet Milwaukee Classic. Truth be told, both the Golden Charger and Jim Wanger Chevy paint themes were “inspired” by the one-off, Hurst produced “Madera Charger,” from 1969.

Rumor has it that the Golden Charger was  spotted in a Texas junkyard sometime in the 1990’s although there is nothing  to substantiate this claim.

So the search continues. What ever happen to the Hurst Golden Charger?
