Not to put too fine a point on it...but the original Hemi was introduced in 1951.
And the 300 in the pic is a 300b from 1956...the original came out a year earlier.
Am aware of all this, owned the car 29 years,,,however it was the 56 and the 55 where Chrysler truly put the word Hemi in the American automotive lexicon and made its bones.
Of course you being from NC, ground zero for Grand National racing you would know all this too.
