Anyone Own/ Drive a Max Wedge Car
Short story, In the late 60's while still in high school a guy named "Chick" along with a couple of others pooled some money together and went in on a 62 Dodge Max Wedge.Walking home from school,Here comes Chick in the black Dodge.I stuck out my thumb and he pulled over(remember those days ?)Anyway, it was my first ride in a max.The thing was a beast(brutal ^^ I like that) The thing would spin the tires with the lightest petal pressure,you had to neutral it at every stop or it would load up the plugs.It was not very street friendly.With in the first week they scattered the 413.Never knew what ever happened to it after that.40+ years later I see "Chick",,,you guessed it,trying to capture his youth he bought another 62 Dodge Max Wedge.Same story, he tries to street drive it with identical results.Yes he scattered the engine with in the first week,But after a rebuild I went for my 2nd ride ever.He complained about the the constant up keep to keep it on the road.His comment was "Not much has changed in 40 years other than the driver. I thought it would be different".A few weeks later he scattered the transmission.Pushed it in the garage and it sits to this day.:banghead:
