My friend told me he used to own the only 1967 Hemi powered Plymouth Belvidere made. He said it was documented. I was wondering if anyone else had ever heard of this car in Central Ohio? Just thought I would throw it out there...

Which belvedere model? Belvedere I or II? I know of one Belvedere I, (one of two)but it isnt in Ohio. Chrysler built a few Belvedere IIs. Not sure of the exact # built. Something like 13 or so. I bet Scott Smith knows...

he might want to inform the other 67 hemi belvedere owners he's got the only one
there were approx. 55 belvedere II's (super stock) and at least 2 belvedere I's known to exist

Wow...very cool site. What is really interesting is the bottom of the page says '1 more silver car not yet pictured' and that is the same color as his was! Dan had a silver one with a black top in the picture he showed me. None of the one's pictured above appeared to have that color combo...hmmm. The plot thickens!

There were several Bel II hardtops, and there should also be several Bel I sedans, being the most logical drag race body. The '67 RO cars were Bel II hardtops, as well. There was a light green metallic Bel II HT in the San Fernando Valley area in '67-'68, the owner's son went to High School with me.

Let's see that documentation...

It sounds like your friends car may have been the one not pictured, it's wherabouts are known, just no pics yet, but could only be your friends old car your friends car was a 2 door hard top (BelvedereII, not a BelvedereI). I will be posting many more pics of the only known 67 Hemi BelvedereII 4 door soon, just got them in.

in 1981 I was in the Ply dealer in Madison Wi.(Russ Darrow IIRC). In the shop in front of the parts counter was a red /black interior Hemi Belvedere sitting there. I cant remember if it was a I or a II tho...

Also keep in mind that a LARGE number of the reports/sightings/memories I've heard from people over the years ended up being 1966 Belvederes rather than 1967's. That's why vintage photos and VIN information is so criticle in verifying one as an original, they look allot alike and many people don't know one year from the other in the first place.

Strange seeing this post, because in Wichita Kansas, (I do not remember if it was I or II), but in 1975 a kid bought a silver 67 belvedere with a hemi engine that had been blown, we took it over to my place and he bought a 318 from me and we installed it into the car. I moved to Texas shortly after that and lost touch with him and his car. But possibly someone in Wichita knows about the silver 67 with the HEMI badges and vin that had a 318 in it? If not, maybe they still have a silver 67 with a 318 in it not realizing that the car is an actual HEMI car and not just dressed up with fake badges.
Regards,

doc

Also keep in mind that there are 3 known original silver 67 Hemi BelvedereII's, it's quite possible that one of them is the car you guys remember seeing, the one that I don't have a photo of was purchased out of the midwest intact but needing a complete restoration.

There was also one 66 Hemi BelvedereII 4 door built: a 4 speed one.

I believe that GGs book show that between Base, Deluxe, and 440 models in 1966 there were 6 Hemi 4 doors. The 440 is a 4 speed.

Right, but I'm only talking Plymouths here. To the best of my knowledge the only known (and documented) Hemi Plymouth 4 door ever built (any year) is the 1967 BelvedereII 4 door in Finland.

I remember meeting a fella named Richard Garland here in NC back in the 80s that had bought and redone a gold 67 hemi satelite. All the literature claimed a GTX was the only way to get a hemi so I questioned it. Apparently the "numbers" were in order and it was the real deal. Any non GTX/Roadrunner 68 or 69 hemicars known to exist? Did any cop cars ever come with a hemi?

I don't know if he still owns it or not but Galen Govier had a 1968 Hemi Coronet 440 model, that was one of two that were never supposed to be available.

Yes Galen still has that car. The gold Satellite mentioned still exists as do several other 67 Hemi Satellites including one which is a white Pilot car, 4 speed convertible it was sold at Barrett Jackson a couple years ago. I'll be updating the site to include the 67 Hemi Satellites once I have all of the info in order.

A good tid-bit of info to remember: All these production numbers you see, DOES NOT include pilot, exec lease, and other cars such as fleet.
