Chris,
I didn't say the 64' Dodge was ugly,,,,,,,,,just that it wouldn't win any
'beauty pageants',,,,,,,,

Now if we're talking about ugly,,,,,,,
the 1961 Plymouth.
So ugly,,,,,,,you have to tie a 'pork chop' to the tire, just to get the
dog to pee on it......

I took a ride in a brand new '64 Plymouth 426 S/4 speed convertible with one of my friends from auto shop. I didn't have a license yet....He did and was a notorious nutcase.....especially behind the wheel......The car was owned by a phys ed teacher and general all around "coolguy" and weight lifter.....(a pretty big dude). The car was black with red interior...and pretty nice....

Those cars may not have been real fast but it was good enough to get us real sideways and burn a heck of a lot of rubber on that little "test ride" I was hanging on for dear life......impressed the heck out of me at the tender age of about 16 or 17

We generally got a little crazy in auto shop and the same friend managed to blow the rear on a stick six Valiant that belonged to another shop teacher.....He was a squirrel.....but fun....

If I ever get to the point of being financially unconstrained, I have always thought it would be massively cool to build one of these or a '60 model Batmobile model for Stock or Super Stock. There are some interesting engine combinations in '60 and '61. The cool factor is off the chart. Of course you would have to campaign the car with a mask on.

Anyone see a 426-S in a 64' Belvedere Station Wagon.
had a weight break of 10.01 wt/hp,,,,,,,,,,
Not desirable from 64' thru 67', but in 1968 fit into
E/SA quite nicely,,,,,,,
