Works for me!
Love the '63 Maxi, I had a '64, 500. Black on black with Cragar SS.
I like the headlight block- offs on the white '63!

Hi Dennis H. I was talking to one of my good friends today & we were trying to remember your Coronet. By 1989 I was pretty much out of it but I'm sure we probably know some of same people.

Khryslerkid, check out my black 63 on my gallery.The photo was given to me at Chryslers at Carlisle about 4 years ago by the guy who took it in 1972. He knew it was my car & just walked up to me & handed me the picture in a nice frame. I have no idea why he was walking around the swap meet with a 38 year old picture of my Dodge but it was cool that he gave it to me. The photo was taken at Maplegrove by the way.

I used to cruise Northamton & the Hillside drive-in once in awhile because my car wasn't well known up there & I thought I could get some runs but somebody knew I was packing a Maxwedge motor in my Dodge & that was that. I guess bad news spreads fast & there was no money to be made up there. I don't remember seeing your Coronet up there at that time.

Hi Budnicks. The "Superbird" was actually Arnie the Farmer Beswick's AA/FC back in the early 70's. If my info is correct, my car was the 2nd of his BOSS BIRD cars. His 1st one was supposedly destroyed in a fire. That one was Pontiac powered & had a body on it that more resembled a Trans-Am with the T/A style flairs on the back. The car I had may have been the only one Arnie campained with a blown HEMI, & it was lettered on the front spoiler "MR. B's HEMI tractor. That body did not have the T/A flairs in the back so it was more of a conventional Firebird funny-car body of the time. The chassis by Logghe & tin-work by Al Bergler. It was an "easy" car to drive, went down the track straight (usually) & kept my *** as safe as it could be in a car of that nature. It only tried to eat me once at the Grove in 82 when the steering box broke but that's another story. By the way Budnicks I would have loved to have made some passes in that injected altered on your gallery, that looks like a fun ride to me. At least I thought it was in your pictures posted somewhere, apologies if it wasn't one of yours, starting to suffer from C.R.S. Over & out!!

I'm doing a 63 Polara now.
440 built as a Max Wedge.
Gee, I'd love to have that BOSS BIRD car you had!
Does anyone know where that thing went to?

Hi Budnicks. I studied both photos & I think the lower one is the car I had. If you look at the front edge of the front & rear wheel opennings it doesn't appear to have the T/A style flairs of the upper photo car. By the way, my son informed me that I drove that car in 84, 85 & 86, what the hell do I know.

Hi super-bee_ski. I sold the rolling chassis of that car to a guy in Banger, Pa ( I think ). He put a bigblock Chevy in it & proceeded to crash the car on his 2nd pass ever in the car at Island Dragway in New Jersey!!!!??? I warned him it wasn't like driving his door slammer car & to "GET USED TO IT FIRST BEFORE TRYING A FULL THROTTLE PASS". He informed me that if I could drive that car so could he! He was right, I just never hit any thing with it in the 3 years I drove it. I lost track of it after that. Check out my white 63 Dodge in my gallery, thats what I play with now ( Maxwedge powered of course ). I will get more pictures up of it now, thats the way it looked when I got it 10 years ago.
