Blake Rogers Posted March 3, 2010 Author Posted March 3, 2010 It's not a Dodge, it's a Plymouth. hence me being confused!!!! thanks for clearing that up but to me its the same company
dwc43 Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 hence me being confused!!!! thanks for clearing that up but to me its the same company Until about the mid to late 70's it was one company, but there was three separate division of Chrysler. Chrysler,Dodge and Plymouth was treated as if it was 3 separate companies within it's walls.

dwc43 Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 oh i know wired eh ? but to me its one company i know might seem odd to most that i would think that but that's me I always thought it was strange that they operated like that, but it worked. Even Dodge and Plymouth kept there racing divisions separate till the end in 78. That's why Petty got ticked off, cause Plymouth thought the Daytona was a joke and would not sell and they would not build one for him to race. So Petty jumped ship to Ford cause Dodge would not give him a Daytona cause they had a driver. Plymouth thought Petty could not win in a Ford till he proved them wrong over and over. They had to give in an build the Super Bird to win him back to the fold. Then the Charger was better than the Road Runner and he jumped ship to Dodge in 72.
