thought this was a good read [video]http://musclecars.howstuffworks.com/classic-muscle-cars/1965-dodge-factory-altered-wheelbase.htm[/video]
 
cool read thanks for sharing, only allegedly 8 Dodge Factory Coronet's AWB AFX, very much like the Plymouth AWB AFX Factory Plymouth/Chrysler Engineering project, many more made IIRC more like 50

Thanks snakeyes,
Very good article
When you "cut the mustard" it was clearly defined as a 2 player system,
Chrysler/Dodge/Plymouth VS FORD
These two GIANTS practiced "out-of-the-box-thinking".

Thanks for posting this article!
 
Read the book about the Ramchargers. Talks about these cars in depth. I thought there were ten, but the Ramchargers converted their car themselves. So 8 or 9 were "factory built."
 
Ramchargers & other AWB AFX most were factory sponsored cars from what I understand

Great bit of info. "We Were The Ramchargers" book in conjunction with inspiration from Steve Magnante and Dale Snokes was the reason that we built our altered. Way too much fun.
