Beeg Juanito Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Where were you in 62? 1962 426 max wedge Plymouth Fury. I built this from an old Johan Kit I got from a friend. The old Johan kits engines were pretty cheezy so I put in the 426 from a Lindburg SS Dodge. I know the max wedges in 62 were 413's but I just had to put in the 426 Ramcharger engine! The car is painted metallic Rootbeer and the inter is tan. I scratch built the entire exhaust system from solder. Man, I miss the days when you could buy something like this right off the showroom floor for under 5k. (Probably between 3 and 4 grand).

1972coronet Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Very nice ! 1962 was the first year for the aluminum-cast 727 (it was cast iron from 1956-1961) . The 413 and 426 were both RB engines ; indeciperable in-scale . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robberbaron Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Nice job! Really wish I'd gotten one of these back in the 80s when they were still available new at the local hobby shop (along with the '62 Dodge and the '63 Plymouth).
