Mopar made a number of Super Stock vehicles from 1961 till 1968.

Name the only factory small block Super Stock made. What was its size and name?

This one will be tough for non-moparites.
 
Ooooh...........oooh............

Hyper-pak 273/275hp?


edit: PS I came up with this before seeing the other posts.....😉
 
Here's one: what was the last year you could push-start a Torqueflight-automatic car?

I have heard a version called the Commando, and the 383.. but I don't know if that is right
No. That is incorrect.

No more suspense:

It was the 1966 Dodge D-Dart. A 275 hp 273 engine. Manual tranny and a rear axle with 4.88 gears.

linky

1964?

1965. Why is this?
I don't remember why.



Nice on the D-Dart!

1965 was the last Torqueflight with a rear pump...rear pump=driveshaft can pressurize trans-->trans can turn engine. 😛


<soup Nazi> NEXT!!!! </soup Nazi>
 
Let's switch back to Corvettes 😛

What was the first year of the ZR-1 Corvette? And what made up the package?

One more question:

What federally mandated safety feature was required in 1968.


Side-marker lights....also parking lights stayed on with the headlights.

That is too new for me. LOL.


mmmm....not as new as you might think! *hint*

 
How about this one:

prior to 1960, Chevy made 4 models based on the full size chassis. Name them.

After 1960 the names of some of the 4 models changed.
 
Weren't there 5 prior to 1960?

Biscayne, Parkwood (or was it Briarwood?), Bel Air, Impala, El Camino.


Of course, the names may have varied for you Canucks 😛 I know there was a 2-door wagon called the Yeoman.

I wouldn't count the El Camino.

Parkwood? BriarWood?

How about Del Ray instead.
 
D'oh!

But I think the 4-door wagon was called the Parkwood, at least Stateside 😉

So what about post-'60?
