So did this car start life as a 426 Max-Wedge...when did a 426 Hemi get transplanted into it.

hi moose yes it is the same car, wen my dad and uncle got the car(1967) it had a 440 police car engine in it with max heads and cross ram, but it had a hemi k member rear mount battery,hemi shock tower, the guy they bought it from who was the original owner told my dad that it was a "single 4 bbl hemi" at the time they thought he was nuts. the car is a feb built car the tag dictates a 426 high performance original black paint car with blue interior. some time in 1968ish the car got crashed on the frontpass side . my dad took the car off the road and put an i beam front end with a max wedge and ran c/gas i still have the replacement steel nose stored at the shop, he got bored witht that and repaired the frame rails and inner fender, put stock front suspension in it t run c/sa with a maxwedge. by the mid 70s it was a ss/ga car and in the early 80s it got the aluminum nose and hemi for ss/ba. a couple of things they bought it with a steel nose and aluminum max wedge scoop ( i stll have the scoop), after it got crashed the entire nose was replaced with parts fromchrysler which i still have and those steel fenders are thin like 65 a990 fenders, the replacement steel hood even has the p# in white on the bottom of the hood and a perfect "426"emblem, when the car got crashed in 1998 we took the hemi k member out of it and put a "light" k member in it which has since dissapeared. i still have the car i recently put the cal tracs and leaf back in original location i am just waiting to find a real nice set of factory rear wheel whells for it, incase you know of any? hint hint!!!! this car fortunatly did not suffer the usual s/s fate and retains the original rear frame rails, so it made my choice easy to use this car for stock eliminator. i have started on the new engine but its for myself so i am always last on the list and by the end of the day whowants tostay late and build your own stuff!!!!

Looks like the same '64 Race Hemi Dodge that started this thread, racing against a '64 Thunderbolt...
