I was reading an older thread on another forum and came across this interesting info!

I sold for two dealerships in Milwaukee in 1964-1967. They Dodge City, which was on the corner of 35th and Wi Ave., and North Ave Chrysler Ply, at 29th and North Ave. Dodge City is long gone, North Ave Chrysler Ply is now known as Emil Ewald Chrysler Ply. Some years ago i tried to see if they had any records of prior year sales as in HEMI car, and was told all gone decades ago! And with loads of foresight all of my sales records which i kept, for each and every car i sold i had given them to a friend of mine in the business when i quit selling! Later i found out he had passed away and the stuff was all trashed! As in Aw Sh*t! I can tell you that we sold every Dodge & Plymouth screw up car that they produced. Cars that were ordered w/HEMI's, and delivered w/383, and visa/versa. As in HEMI 4 Doors both Dodge & Plymouth B bodies, including a Belvedere 1 Wagon which Galen says never happened. But thats what he gets paid for! We sold lots of 2dr post cars in 66 of both Dodge and Ply. When i said all cars produced i meant delivered to the Milwaukee zone!!

I regard to your question about four door HEMI cars i can remember 2 Dodges we had, one being a 440 Coronet 4 dr Auto, Powder Blue color, The other a red stripo 4 dr Red Auto. I Drove the 440 as a Demo for about 3 weeks and sold it. You know this taking it's toll of my memory as i'm into the geezer age (70).
