Re: LATE SIXTIES MICHIGAN DEALER LICENSE PLATES
Actually he was about 23 yearsold and probably didn't even know what a Hemi was ! I happened to make it almost to my house so thats probably why he said GO HOME !!!!I have to admit....it must have looked awful bad to hear a Hemi at full yell going down the street past him !

Re: LATE SIXTIES MICHIGAN DEALER LICENSE PLATES
Belair,
Well, I sure know what a Hemi is. LOL I suppose he couldn't figure out what that weird noise was coming from your car when both 4 barrel carbs were trying to suck the air cleaners through them. Whooooooooo Ron [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img] |

Re: LATE SIXTIES MICHIGAN DEALER LICENSE PLATES
MM,great plates! The Ohio plts. look like regular plates to me.Most OH dealer plates start with the plate issue number for the dealer,then the dealer specific number.I like the dealer "1" plates..first plate issued for that specific dealer.Do you have any "M" ..(manufacture) plates from Mich? I have been looking for some time now.....

Belaire 62
Do you happen to know where a guy can pick up a 64 model 426 wedge engine at a reasonable price.I just purchased a 64 Plymouth Sports Fury that is an original wedge car.Sorta would like to put a 426 wedge in it if I can afford one!If not I will have to put the built 383 roadrunner engine in it for now. Thanks [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/[/img] Bobby |

Re: LATE SIXTIES MICHIGAN DEALER LICENSE PLATES
So far from what I understand it is wedge car,I know very little about Mopars at this time but am searching for more information.According to the information I have received on the trim tag under the A&B there is a 14 and that represents a wedge car,not for sure if it is a max wedge or street wedge.I am going to send the $45.00 dollars to the The Chrysler Historic Society and see what they come up with.I had to buy it after I went to look at it because the body is ORIGINAL and so VERY NICE.Interior is almost excellent except for the front door panels is the only flaws inside the car.There is only 1 rust spot on the car about the size of a half dollar behind the passenger tire on the quarter panel down where it rolls under.I even believe the car has the original black paint on it.Just a few minor dings on the rear trunk trim and 2 small spots on the grill,other than that the trim is excellent except for the red and white paint on the side moulding is faded bad.Go to ebay item # 2400201138 and you can see the car and trim tag information.Rat Pack is also looking to see what he can find out for me also.Car also came with a host of new parts and used parts.The guy I bought it from had a 426 hemi and a richmond 6 speed in the car,he he drove it 1 time since 1987,bought a 69 roadrunner and pulled the 426 out and put it in the roadrunner.He did not know it was a wedge car until he posted the trim tag info on ebay under the description then he had some people notify him it was a wedge car he had to modify the 4 speed hump to get the richmond in .He replaced the front floor pans due to his modifications he made,all I have to do is complete the hump mods back to original if I go with a 4 speed,but I am thinking of going with an auto 727 trans,my Chevelle has a Richmond 6 speed and I would sort of like to have an auto car that my wife could drive to local shows with me.If anyone knows anything about the trim tag info please let me know.I have located a 65 model 426 wedge short block assembly in California but am waiting to hear from the guy on its condition he is asking 250.00 plus shipping for the short block,I am sure it needs a complete overhaul.I just hope the block is in good shape.I would really like to have a 64 model but whatever I can locate.I more than likely will be putting the 383 I purchased in the car for now but would like to take my time and get all the parts I need to build a wedge engine for it.What exactly is the difference between the street wedge and max wedge,is it one has a single carb and the max has the crossram setup.

Any help would GREATLY be appreciated Thanks Bobby [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img] |

Re: LATE SIXTIES MICHIGAN DEALER LICENSE PLATES
Thanks
I think it is a real neat looking car also,Looking forward to starting on it soon.As soon as my Soninlaw finishes his engine for his truck I will have a spot to put it in the garage and get cracking on it. Thanks [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/[/img] Bobby |
