Hemi Greg, If you are talking about the Red 64 that crashed & belonged to Terry Thurman, it was not an orginal factory car. It was built from a street car by Dave Mosley and sold to Larry Riffe. The aluminum fenders and hood came from a max wedge car I bought from Loren Zeedyke. The hood scoop was traded for here locally. The grill was made by Ben Mosley from two we obtained from the local junk yard. Terry knew the history of the car. Still, it was a very nice piece. To bad the way it ended.

I only have this one. Maybe I can coax Mom into taking a couple passes in my car this year. Not worried about if she might go faster, that's a given. I couldn't equal her achievements in two lifetimes, but I'm not done trying either.

My dad remembers Carolin Hines cars from the 60s and 70s. We were there when the Chargin Hemi Got rearended at Quaker City, and the Haulin Hemi Road Runner before it got parked. But he can also remember 2 Honkin Hemi cars painted the same, the color and the lettering were the same. 65 Plymouth and a 65 Dodge, he remembers the Dodge because of the headlight delete. Anybody recall.

the 64 alum pkg was just that, a pkg, available on both max cars as well as the hemi's, the difference being the scoop




I would highly contest your statement about the scoop being different. my father owns a 64 lightweight HEMI car and it wears a maxie scoop and battery mounting. Pilot car? Find someone that REALLY knows 64 cars and i will divulge more info until then all you guys have is speculation

I have a pic of the Dodge, i think it may have started or later turned into Bill Quinn's car. I've been trying to find someone who might know about the Dodge for awhile now. Very obscure, little known car.

The Haulin' Hemi was parked because of body twist. Bill Pakula drove the Chargin' Hemi (after Bill Quinn), then the Haulin' Hemi, and finally the Honkin' Hemi.

Hemi had a different hood scoop as well as single headlights in the grill, wedge had two headlights. Hemis had alum. doors, wedge did not.

The Hemi scoop was definitely different than the "double hump" maxie one.

Early '64 hemi cars used the Maxi scoops. They had not designed the '64 A990 scoop yet. Guaranteed.

I have watched these cars for years as well as owning. I have never seen a "factory" hemi with the single headlight grill AND a double hump wedge type scoop. The are also some interior things that are different. Fred, glad to see you are watching this. I would think you would know. Maybe we need to confir with Jim Schild.

OK! You have changed my thoughts. Did these cars have a back seat,front buckets or bench?? Can you get me a copy of Gaylen's article? Not to dispute but I want to learn as much about these cars as I can, Thanks.

Jim Schild, in my humble opinion, would be the best person to contact with any 1964 Hemi car questions. Jim has devoted most of his life to the early "B" body Hemi cars. He is a great guy also and he is never too busy to answer or research your questions.

Good luck...
