Chrysler Hemi Racing Prototype

the real deal Great Granpa
Of the Hemis .

interesting story about these
Here is One of 14.

back in the early 50’s Chrysler went racing in an effort to promote the brand , WWII was over & the Greatest Generation was putting life back in order !
So Momma Mopar had the baby Hemi & knew it had potential.
So other OEM’s Even Mercedes
Went to Mexico for the
LaCarerra PanAmericana….
Road Race .
Imagine a 53 New Yorker 331 Hemi , 3onda tree , Imperial Springs & Brakes , 8ply truck
Tires & Supposedely Famous Race Driver Briggs Cunningham even drove one . So to give the lil 331 They Stuck A High Lift Cam & These Bohnalite Dual Quad Intakes To Get em more competitive, who knows how they finished but racin them big ol PanAm New Yorkers I’ll bet was a chore ! & Then Some!
