1964, Chrysler introduced the street-minded 426-S 'Street-Wedge'.
Also known as, the Commando 426.

Rated at 365 Horsepower, the 64' Plymouth Belvedere, Fury and Dodge
Model 330/440 and Polaris cars were supposed to rule the 'street musclecar scene'.

Easier to tune than the 426 Max-Wedge, the 426-S was a more desirable every-day driver.

With both the Plymouth Belvedere & Fury, and Dodge Model 330/440 and Polaris cars weighing in at approximately #3350 lbs., the 426/365 HP car fit into the A/Stock class in 1964
(8.70 - 9.49 wt/hp).

Motor Trend Magazine 1964 Performance Results;
64' Belvedere w/727-automatic and 3.91 gears,,,,15.20 @ 95.5 MPH

anybody have one...
