Plymouth Aluminum Q?
 

Can you run fiberglass or steel instead of aluminum fenders/hood etc since they are all but nonexistent in NHRA classes?

Thank you.

Well in classes where applicable.

only in IHRA you can use fiberglass or combo steel and fiberglass.
in NHRA need all alum

426 Race Hemi cars with 2 carbs were available from factory with either steel or aluminum components (fenders, hood & scoop) depending on plant supply at the time motor installed in car.
426 Race Hemi cars with 1 carb were available from factory with steel components (fenders & hood) with the addition of steel or aluminum hood scoop..
426 Wedge Al component car required to have aluminum hood with hood scoop, & both aluminum front fenders to be classified as aluminum component car

This is from the bottom of the 1964 Plymouth classification spreadsheet. I'd be happy to be able to run a fiberglass hood and scoop and keep my steel fenders. Sure would save a ton of money. I haven't seen an aluminum front clip for sale in over 10 years.

I know of a complete aluminum front clip for a 64 Dodge. Fenders are NOS. It is complete with all of the parts. PM me if interested. Dyno

Thanks for the responses. So you can run a 64 savoy in say ss/b with the steel components.

I think I've seen one 63' dodge fender for sale, but not many others. Aluminum and Steel scoops are being reposed at about $1300 each.
