Name That Car

Some time ago I had a question about cars used in The Doris Day Show.
It had to do with the car(s) used in the opening credits.
Galen cleared up my confusion pretty quickly.
Here's another similar situation, and it bothers me in the same way
because my favorite cars are from this time period, and I like to think I
usually recognize them immediately, but I guess there're some models
that just don't ring a bell.  Or I'm losing my mind, which is also possible.

This car was also in the DD show, but it was just a passing part of the
story line in one particular episode.  Maybe I'd recognize it from a
normal ground-level angle, but this view from Doris's upstairs window
just isn't doing it for me.  

I'm also wondering about the 'contours' or 'structure' of the hood.  It
looks like it has some sort of 'one-sided' design to it, although the
lighting here is such that there might be something on the other side
we just can't see in this shot.  

Whatever it is, there's no doubt in my mind that it's what I consider to
be a 'real car', as opposed to what's been produced in the following
several decades.  Geesh.  It just hit me that if someone came out
with a tee-shirt for old fogies that read "Set in my ways, and proud
of it!", I'd really want one!  B)

Thanks to everyone for responding.
It now definitely looks like the tv shot got bleached-out and lost a lot of detail.
That's a particularly nice Challenger photo.  
I may have to save that for the next time I do one of the helpful
gift-giving guide posts regarding Christmas or my birthday.  :P
