Mike Kucaba Posted August 7, 2014 Posted August 7, 2014 This has been one of my dream builds, the 12 original AWB Dodges and Plymouths. I believe there are decals to do all 12 original "factory" cars. They were built by a company called Amblewagen, an ambulance builder run by Dick Branstner.
gtx6970 Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 (edited) The Mr Norms blue and silver car was the Color me Gone car ,,just relettered The Sox and Martin car became the Buckeye and Vernon - Mr 4speed car Charlie Allens 1965 Dodge Sedan Koffels - Maloney Plymouth 1965 Edited August 10, 2014 by gtx6970
Mike Kucaba Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 Just a FYI I checked my source about my post and the article I quoted said there were only 10 cars done initially by Amblewagen.
1972coronet Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 If I remember correctly , Landy's 1965 "WO51-come-A/FX" Coronet was sold off in c.1966 ; its new owner / sponsor was Studio Dodge (North Hollywood , 213-SUnset-80071) . So , those "two" A/FX Coronets didn't "exist" at the same time .

jjsipes Posted August 19, 2014 Author Posted August 19, 2014 (edited) Just ordered and read the following booklet. Great read for anyone interested in the AWB Mopars. According to what is written in this book, there were 12 factory AWB cars - 6 Dodges, 6 Plymouths. Breakdown as follows Dodge Ramchargers - Was sold to Harrop to replace his wrecked car in 1966 - Could use Lindberg 1964 decals I guess and piece something together Dick Landy - Has been Restored - Slixx Decals has decals for car Bud Faubel "The Honker" - Has been Restored - Quarter Mile Legends did decals for car Dave Strickler - Has been Restored - Fred Cady has decals for car Roger Lindamood "Color Me Gone" - Transfered to Mr Norm for his AWB - Could use Lindberg 1964 decals I guess and piece something together Bob Harrop "Flying Carpet" - Wrecked in early 1966 - Found decals on EBAY not sure you did them originally Plymouth Sox and Martin - Has been Destroyed- Slixx Decals has decals for car Golden Commandos Mule Car - Sent back to Detriot for testing for remainder of 1965 - ????????? Golden Commandos #2 - Has been Restored - Fred Cady has decals for car Lee Smith "Learner's Sales & Service" - Has been Restored - ?????????????? - Greg's Decals has a listing for car but they do not look accurate to me colors look wrong Butch Leal "California Flash" - Was sold to Mr. Norm then wrecked and parted out- Fred Cady has decals for car Cecil Yother "Melrose Missile" - Yother claims he has remains of car after chopping roof off - Whoppie Kat has decals for car And some count Bill Flynn "Yankee Peddler" Sedan as the 13th Factory AWB.
