Hi Guys; I’m a Newbie to the site but not to Mopars. Theybrought home from the hospital in 1951 in a 1947 Dodge flathead six and FluidDrive. I learned to drive in a ’59 Plymouth Sport Suburban with the GoldenCommando, TF and 3.31 Suregrip. Yes, my parents let a 16 year old loose on thepublic roads with 305 horsepower! I’ve owned and driven A bodies, B bodies, Cbodies and, yes, Y bodies! Nuthin’ like pushin’ a ’65 Imperial through thecorners and curves or for that matter a ’77 Newport with a 400! So when Ibought MAX the man asked me how I knew he was a factory car I pointed out allthe differences from the “normal” B bodies that I’d had. He then told me thedata plate showed he was real. MAX is a 1963 Sport Fury Hardtop Originally 11½:1 Torqueflite car. Now built to 13 ½:1, locked out TF, 4.88 gears, fenderwellheaders, Milodon 8 quart pan, 3705 carbs, 300J distributer and battery in thetrunk. Charlie
