1964 S/SA National Record Setter with a Hemi

I e-mailed Bill Smrtic of 'Storm King' fame.
1964 Dodge 426 Max-wedge, steel nose.(S/SA car) out of
Orange County, New York.

Before he could get his car, he was telephoned and questioned by a
Dodge Performance rep, who asked him about his qualifications and
plans to race the car at a legal-track.

He said, the Dodge rep did not want any 'street racing hooligan' to get
his hands on a Max-Wedge S/SA and race it on the street.
It would give Chrysler a bad name.

He was also, told (asked), to get a Dodge Dealer to co-sponsor the car,
and get Dodge lettering and/or the dealership name on the car.
