Third Generation
The third generation of the Dodge Charger was produced from 1971-1974. The 1971 Dodge Charger was set apart by its split grille and slightly more rounded shape. Other features included a rear spoiler and pop-up scoop on the hood. As with earlier models, buyers could choose from several V8 engines as well as an inline six. Three-speed automatic and manual transmissions were available, along with a four-speed manual. The wheelbase shrunk by two inches, while overall length decreased slightly.
New seats were not interchangeable with any other year. Also, some interior components were different, including the door panels and dash. The exterior sheet metal was also different, so parts like fenders, hoods, and quarter panels wouldn't interchange.
Fourth and Fifth Generations
These two generations started at 1975 and up to 1987. The truth is that most parts from these two generations are interchangeable because they were very similar. The main difference was in the grille, which was rectangular in the fourth generation and then became more of a pentagon shape in the fifth generation.
Other than that, these cars had the same engine options and transmissions. They also shared many of the same body panels and interior components. So, if you're looking for parts for your 1975-1987 Dodge Charger, you'll have a pretty good chance of finding interchangeable parts between those years.

Sixth Generation
The sixth generation Charger debuted in 2006 as a four-door sedan, rather than the coupe design of earlier models. This new LX platform created a half-sedan, half-muscle car hybrid; with its more muscular look paying homage to Charger designs of the past. It featured rear or all wheel drive and came equipped with two V6s or two Hemi V8s. Transmission choices included either a four or five speed automatic option.
As you understand, most parts were not compatible with previous generations, but there were a few exceptions. First, the 2006-2007 Charger shared the same front grille with the 2005 Chrysler 300. So, if you're looking to replace your Charger's grille, you can find one from a 2005 Chrysler 300.
