That Little Old Lady's Mystery Dodge....[PIC]

In 1963, a group of Chrysler engineers commandeered one the 55 1964 Dodge 330 A864 light weight sedan drag cars with a tweaked 426 Hemi, a 727 Torqueflite push button automatic trans and a 4.56 Sure-Grip rear. The aluminum hood and front fenders along with plexiglass side windows, and stripped interior  with bolted in seats from an A100 van., it brought the curb weight to 3200 lbs. Before the model year had arrived it had already won the 1963 Stock Eliminator. Now that little old lady from Pasadena seemed to have scored one of 19 PP1 red on red A864's with the optional A833 4 speed manual and shod with the same 15" American Racing wheels with the rears stored in the trunk for extra traction. Considering 14 of the 19 PP1s were shipped to Mr. Norm, she could have ordered it from Grand Spaulding Dodge in Chicago. Somewhere along the line, she had the headers connected to a street legal dual exhaust system. The "Terror of Colorado Boulevard" must have been well connected. There is only one survivor of the 19 PP1 red/red A864s in existence and it's one of Mr Norm's lot and it has the 727 Torqueflite. It had been stored since 1966 with 567 miles on it. Restored to factory specs, it recently sold for $150,000. Whether it was bought by another little old lady is not known.
