Musclecar Dealers & Low Production Factory Freaks

[69hurstSC]

Lets see how wild we can get with finding Musclecars that were either Dealer converted or Factory freaks. I'll start things off with the James Garner BAJA SC/ramblers.
Production: 10

What is a factory freak?

I could name a '67 Park Lane with a 410 4-speed, but it's not really a freak because it was offered by the factory. Different people have different inferences on what a freak is.

I guess factory freak is a rather vague term. Things along the lines of COPO's, 4 door Hemi cars, fleet orders (think Bengal Chargers) are along the lines of &quot;freaks&quot; IMO.

I know of a 61 Dodge 4dr sedan, factory D-500 long cross ram, ex Kansas Highway Patrol car. Sorry, no pics.

In 1960 Chrysler built 9 300F with 4 speed transmissions and 400HP 413 with soldid lifter cams. The cars were intended strictly for a few chosen drivers to compete in Daytona speed week. 7 cars ended up in the hands of selected customers, Andy Granantelli being one of them. 2 made it to &quot;good&quot; Chrysler customers not involved in Racing. The cars were beasts to drive on the street.

4 are known to exist today with one just recently selling for $400,000.

Now were rolling. How about the 4 1964 2% Mopars?
Ramchargers, Dodge Boys, Melrose Missile and Lawman.

An amazing read.

10 or 12 years ago, I knew a kid with a 69 Cougar painted up just like that Cuda. He'd found it in a local garage. It was a 70s time capsule, red tinted windows and all. Had a worked 429 with a 4 speed and some ridiculously low gear in the back. The thing couldn't get over 70 mph, but it was pure hell stoplight to stoplight.
