1970 Hemi orange 6 pak B body with bright red interior!

The wagon question is a bit vague, both Hemi and Max Wedge SW's were raced but did anyone ever actually order one from the factory? The word going around even back in the day is that these cars along with the '62 383/343 were all over the parts counter cars...not assembly line produced.

You have to remember just because it's in the classification guide doesn't mean it's correct.

Jim.....I believe the B/SA wagon that Dom Rinaldi is an honest to goodness real Max Wedge Wagon. It was bought new and raced on the street by a good friend of his and then sold to Dom around late 1964 or 1965 because the friend and original owner racked up to many "Speed contest awards" on the street with it as the story was told to me. You can check with Dom as he reads and posts on the H.A.M.B. site on the Jr stock section. Look on page # 157 for his last post listed under "ITS DYNOMITE" and you can send him a PM.

Dom Rinaldi's '64 Max Wedge wagon is the real deal. As stated in an earlier post Dom bought it from a close friend. I raced with Dom's son many years ago when he raced the wagon at our local track. Dom Sr. recently brought the car back out 2 yrs ago with a fresh engine. It's a beautiful car. According to the books I have there were three max wedge wagons built in '64, two six passenger and one nine passenger wagon. I believe Dom has one of the six passenger cars (but dont' hold me to it). LOL Jerry.

This is the first solid info I've gotten on Max Wedge wagons, thanks. I still wonder about the tritak/morgan and the Dvorak wagons?

Ron Mandella's 63 plymouth wagon was a real car. It was at indy in 64.

For more weirdness, wasn't there 1 66 Coronet and 1 Belevedere FOUR DOOR's with Hemis...think a Mopar Mag several years ago featured them. Geezzzzz, what are they worth??

Dick Maxwell from Chrysler had and drove a Hemi station wagon.

One of the cars is in Sweden or Finland in need of restoration.

Wow, that makes me proud to say I'm part Swedish. I hear my grandmothers home she grew up in, in the late 1800s is still standing. I hope to get there someday, Paul.

According to a couple of magazine articles I have, there were two '66 Hemi Coronet 4-doors, one white and one red, both now restored. The white one may be in Garlits' Museum. I do think I heard of a Hemi Belvedere 4-door overseas.
