The B platform or B-body was the name of Chrysler's midsize rear-wheel drive passenger car platform from 1962 through 1979, and the name of a later, unrelated front-wheel drive platform used by the Eagle Premier / Dodge Monaco from 1988 through 1992. The 1962-1979 platform underwent significant changes during its lifetime, but all of Chrysler's B-platform cars in a given model year shared the same chassis, with only styling differences between the Dodge and Plymouth models. The cars were otherwise mechanically identical. Similarly, the 1988-1992 Premier and Monaco models differed only by styling and shared the same front-wheel drive B-body platform. The Plymouth B-body series ultimately comprised four cars with nearly identical outward appearances (differing only in trim package, drive train and accessories). These were the Belvedere, Satellite, GTX and Road Runner. The Superbird was a Road Runner with an extended nose cone and front fenders borrowed from the Dodge Charger Daytona, and a high-mounted rear wing. The Superbird's unique styling was a result of homologation requirements for using the same aerodynamic nose and rear wing when racing the car in the NASCAR series of the time. There was more diversity in the outward appearance of the Dodge B-body series. The Dodge models based on the B-body were the Coronet, Super Bee and the Charger. The Charger Daytona was a Charger with an extended nose and high-mounted rear wing, offered for the same reasons as the Superbird. 1962–1979 Cars using the rear-wheel-drive B platform include: 1962 Dodge Dart 1962–1964 Dodge Polara 1962–1964 Plymouth Fury 1962–1964 Plymouth Savoy 1962–1970 Plymouth Belvedere 1963–1964 Dodge 220 (Canadian) 1963–1964 Dodge 330 1963–1964 Dodge 440 1965–1974 Plymouth Satellite 1965–1976 Dodge Coronet 1966–1978 Dodge Charger 1967–1971 Plymouth GTX 1968–1975 Plymouth Road Runner 1975–1978 Plymouth Fury 1975–1979 Chrysler Cordoba 1977–1978 Dodge Monaco 1978–1979 Dodge Magnum 1979 Chrysler 300 Five different wheelbases were available: 116 in 1962 Dodge Dart 1962–1964 Dodge Polara 1962–1966 Plymouth wagons 1962–1970 Plymouths (except wagons) 1963–1964 Dodge 220/330/440 115 in 1971–1979 2-door models 1975–1979 Chrysler Cordoba 117 in 1965–1970 Dodges 1967–1974 Plymouth wagons 1971–1974 Plymouth 4 doors 117.5 in 1975–1978 Plymouth and Dodge 4 doors and wagons 118 in 1971–1974 Dodge 1988–1992 From 1988 to 1992, the B-body name was used again for the midsize front-wheel-drive Eagle Premier sedan, which was originally designed by and was slated to be built by American Motors with Renault until Chrysler's buyout of that company in March 1987.
