I bought that car for $1000 my senior year of high school.....in March of 1969. I had fallen in love with those cars back in 1965 when I first saw them run at old PID, at a NASCAR Grand Stock event. In any event, mine had a 273 with an auto when I got it. In 1971 I got a hold of a Hemi from a stock car buddy, and it's been this way ever since. I think the shot you posted was taken around 76 or 77. Jim...thanks for the kind words.

That Monaco: C body factory four speed. Now, that is a rare piece.

A local collector has one of the very few (I don't know how many were produced) 1965 Chrysler 300L (last letter series) with a 426 wedge four speed. A buddy of mine had a 65 Sport Fury 426 wedge four speed.

Rare bird, indeed. That one is a keeper.

Steve, thanks for clearing that info up as I was always under the impression that you ran the '65 Coronet with a big block then switched to Hemi power sometime later in it's lifetime...
