Three are a few guys on here who are quite knowledgable on the early max wedge cars. John Kunkel is one of them.

There are a lot of max wedge only features, brake line routing, wiring harness routing, exhaust hanger brackets, the vin info identifies the build plant...the list goes on. Other members here will chime in.

I have the 63 Dodge book by Darrell Davis on the 63 Dodge Max Wedge cars which has all the vin's in it. You can post it or pm it to me and I can check it. Ron

I think an easy one is if the ballast resistor is mounted in another position on the firewall to clear the rear air cleaner.

Ballast resistor stayed. Voltage regulator moved.

VIN is the only way to identify a real max wedge car, everything else can be faked.
