So if the 2% cars were shipped aMax Wedge cars did they have the aluminum doors like the A864 cars or just the aluminum front end like a Max Wedge?

---

The AFX or 2% cars had aluminum doors along with the front ends. Bill Stiles has told me the Strickler car was raced s with the max wedge very early on before being swapped over to Hemi. The way you can tell the aluminum doors on the AFX cars was no wing vent windows. The aluminum doors ended up on the Strickler SS Hemi car when the AFX car was sold to George Whalen. The car became the Rebel with steel doors....

I am doing the resto on a A864, the "NICE GUYS" car. It has the original paint aluminum doors with stock glass vent windows, plexi roll-up windows, regulators and brackets made from thinner gauge steel and the normally cast window mounting channel is stamped from light gauge aluminum. This car wes a great reference source as it was never tubbed or caged, it was original paint from the doors back and has been in storage with one family since 1969.

Don't know how prochargeds photo from the 70's proves anything(show me that car new in the 60's-very cool car by the way). But here's a neat photo found somewhere on the net. Maybe we can have Jim Schild and Galen verify what motor is in this car.

That is the car Mr. Guffey owns. The four '64 AFX Mopars (some call them 2%) all were originally shipped with Max Wedge engines. The Hemi's were sent later. The Hemi's all went to the NASCAR guys early on. When there was enough engines for them the drag racers got theirs. My guess is this is a very early photo and the hoodscoop had not been changed to the Hemi scoop. I've seen this car with both scoops. The four AFX cars were 1.Strickler 2.Ramchargers 3.Golden Commandos 4. Melrose Missle Three of the four survive and Mr.Guffey has two of them.

all i can really say is this car was built the same day as these 4 2% cars everyone speaks of.(they were all built on the same day)It IS an original HEMI car. If what you are saying about all these cars coming with max wedges i would love to know who did the shock tower conversions?

If your Dad is saying his car and the 2% cars and his have the same sceduled production date on the fender tag, that really has nothing to do with the actual production date of the car. They could have been built weeks even a months apart.

---

first off my dad isn't saying anything, I AM. We know exactly what this car is (as do others that know the car) if you think it is just coincidence that these cars were all built the same day with the same codes you my friend are in a perfect world. IBM punch cards don't lie. as said earlier all you guys have is speculation
