Book Description
Always an innovator, Chrysler produced muscle cars in the 1960s that embodied true technical innovation as well as pavement shredding performance. Max Wedge and Hemi engines, torsion bar suspensions, radical body shapes, and shocking paint colors combined to draw attention to Chrysler products on the drag strip as well as the boulevard.
This new addition to the "Best of Hot Rod" technical library captures the essence of Chrysler performance products from the '60s and early '70s. Included are such standouts as the 426 Belvedere and 426 Plymouth Savoy, Super Stock Dodge, Dodge Hemi Charger, Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda, Road Runners, Superbirds, GTX, and 440 Darts. Coverage includes factory stock road tests, drag strip performance, technical specifications, restoration details, and powerplant development.
