An original 62 max wedge hood with scoop and holes added for velocity stacks. Detailed engine - trunk -all chrome and stainless is original in good condition.

I spent much $$$$ on ebay looking to upgrade pieces when I could find them.

Although not an original Max wedge this car has a history of being a max wedge race car most of it’s previous life, the former 2 owners never registered it.

I bought this car 9 years ago. I decided to do a conservation on it, doing everything necessary while still keeping the old school raced-bred appearance. The last 9 years have been a labor of love, time and money well spent on refurbishing the exterior , interior mechanicals. engine and trim pieces, to get it to where it is today.

Today it is what it is, a retired race car that’s used for local cruise nights and car shows.

It had a 1966 426- block in it when I bought it but after a few years it froze a rod bearing -that’s when I was told it also had a cracked crank I decided it made more sense to replace it with a professionally rebuilt 440 short block that could runs on pump gas and and add some cubic inches. While it was apart I had the stage III 518 max heads re-done by S&K speed and ordered a new comp cam, lifters, roller rockers, push rods, springs, shafts.

$$$$ later it runs great (pictures of heads and block before assembly included)

It starts every time, it’s loud. It has a strong stable idle (about 1000 rpm), it doesn’t stall.

Shifts easy just push 1-2-3-

It’s great around town. (it’s a piece of theater ) It’s reliable and it’s faster than it needs to be

It’s gets more than it’s share of attention at cruise nights and car shows.

Head lights, low & high beam, tail lights, parking & backup lights, signals, horn, wipers, dash lights, dome light, speedometer/odometer, temp gauge, voltage gauge, oil pressure gauge--all work.

What doesnt work:

the clock---the radio -no speakers are hooked up to it (it’s too loud anyway)---choke-there are no chokes in the 750 edelbrock carbs (more air)---emergency brake- not hooked up ( less drag) use Park

Fiat Chrysler and Peugeot boards meet to finalize merger

Tue, Dec 17 2019

MILAN/PARIS — The boards of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and Peugeot will meet separately on Tuesday to discuss finalizing an initial agreement for a $50 billion merger to create the world's number four carmaker, sources said. A source close to FCA said the two companies could announce the signing of a binding memorandum early on Wednesday, followed by a conference call to explain further details later in the day. The two mid-sized carmakers announced plans six weeks ago for a tie-up to help them deal with big challenges in the industry, including a global demand downturn and the need to develop costly cleaner cars to meet looming anti-pollution rules. Ahead of the meetings, entities representing the Peugeot family, Etablissements Peugeot Freres (EPF) and FFP, unanimously approved a proposed memorandum of understanding for the planned merger, a source familiar with the situation said. FCA and PSA have said they would seek to finalize a deal by year-end to create a group with 8.7 million in annual vehicle sales. That would put it fourth globally behind Volkswagen, Toyota and the Renault-Nissan alliance. PSA's Carlos Tavares will be chief executive and FCA's John Elkann Â— the scion of Italy's Agnelli family, which controls FCA through their holding company Exor Â— chairman of the combined company. The group will include the Fiat, Jeep, Dodge, Ram, Chrysler, Alfa Romeo, Maserati, Peugeot, DS, Opel and Vauxhall brands, allowing it to serve mass and premium passenger car markets as well as those for trucks and light commercial vehicles.
