3636 was John McCormack's number when he raced it in IHRA AA/SA in 2003.

In other words you may build a "CLONE" of an alum. equiped MoPar using the CORRECT fiberglass replacement parts in place of the very rare and expensive alum. componets using what only what came on the alum cars. If it is a 64 HEMI (2 door post) car then you could use the doors. If its a 63-64 Max wedge car then its just the hood, scoop, and fenders, and lower splash panel under the front bumper. This was all decided on years(about 12 years ago) ago with Jack McCormicks and MoPar performance input. Because of the 7.00 pound break the X ram (dual quad) Hemi is allowed to run using the reduced HP (470 HP ?) rating that IHRA has for this combo. Good competition for a 64 427 Hi Rise T- Bolt. By the way I talked to Dan Davorak a couple of weeks ago and he plans running his 64 Hemi car in IHRA AA/SA as soon as he can get used to driving with one leg. He wants to let everyone know he is still alive and kicking.
The GOOD fiberglass fenders and hood plus front and rear (alum on this car) bumpers are allowed IN FIBERGLASS if someone wanted to clone a 1963 Z-11 Chev. bench seat Impala. Not likely though as its still a S/S only combo and engine parts are as rare as chicken lips.

The car is mine -- and while I run NSS and considered using it as a backup car (since changed my mind) in a Championship Series -- I'm assured by Jack McCormick (in a call yesterday) that the car is 100% IHRA legal for SS/SA. Jack has been around racing for a long time and it is doubtful that he and John would have built a car that wasn't legal for the class they were running.

I've been going through the car freshening some things up -- and it was built very well.

I'm assumming you mean AA/SA although there was a SS/SA in the early to mid 60's.

great car, best of luck!

Re: Legal Stocker?
 

Jacks car is/was legal for AA/S and AA/SA unless something has been changed. Maybe just the bumpers and the trunk lid????? An easy fix if thats the case. When you tech in at an IHRA race be sure to have it done by Danny Waters Sr. or Hank Blankinship. Both great guys and very well informed with stockers. What is SS/SA?

Re: Legal Stocker?
 

The car is an IHRA car. And in IHRA the Mustangs go in AA/FIA.
