A-864
1964 PLYMOUTH SAVOY
FACTORY LIGHTWEIGHT HEMI SUPER STOCK
The A-864 was the factory package code given to the 1964 Plymouth and Dodge Factory Super Stock cars. These cars were the first factory produced cars with the new generation 426 Hemi!
The new Hemi combination dominated the Drag Strips and NASCAR ovals from their inception in 1964.
The A864 Drag Package included:
Driveline
• 426 Hemi engine rated at 425 HP, 480 Ft/lbs Torque
• Aluminum crossram intake manifold
• Two 750cfm carburetors
• 12.5:1 compression ratio
• Tubular steel exhaust
• A-833 4 speed or TorqueFlite push button automatic
• 4.56:1 Sure Grip axle
• Super Stock springs
Lightweight body and interior modifications:
• Aluminum fenders, front bumper & brackets, hood, scoop, doors and hinges
• Special grille with inboard headlights removed
• Trunk mounted truck battery

• Light weight carpet
• Light weight glass
• Rear seat deleted
• Arm rests deleted
• Sound deadener and undercoating deleted
• Sun visors, dome light, coat hooks and cigar lighter deleted
• Passenger side wiper deleted
• One horn deleted
Plymouth produced 112 A-864 package cars from April to July 1964.
Current value of these cars is $150,000 to $200,000 depending on history.
This is a streetable recreation of this assume factory race car.
I purchased the Utah donor for this car from the lady who had owned it since 1966!
It was a rust free survivor 318 car. It was a Belvedere which was converted to a Savoy. It was stripped, media blasted and rotisserie restored from the ground up. Every nut and bolt was removed and reconditioned!! A real factory race car is impossible to drive on the street. This car was built to drive, 10.5 pump gas compression, tight 3000 Stall converter and a 3.23: sure grip 8 ¾ rear.
• All new suspension, front disc brakes, new rear 11” drums, new brake and fuel lines, shocks,
• New windshield
• Lazar straight body with black paint
• Gary Ball SS fawn interior
• Orig Jones/Motorola cable drive tach
• Dash rechromed, radio delete
• Reverse order push buttons
• 1968 Hemi block with Aluminum heads
• Forged crank, new +. 035 Ross pistons
• Orig 64 crossram and Holley carbs
• Orig radiator modified to 4 core
• Rebuilt 727 w/hemi clutches and a Grinder Reverse valve body
• Rear SS springs
• Rechromed bumpers and all stainless polished.
• TTI ceramic coated headers and 3” Exhaust
• 15x6 and 15x8 Rocket wheels painted like 60s Americans
• New Goodyear Eagle Radials
I’ve got to say this is the best car I’ve ever done!! And I’ve been in a lot of magazines.
Finished in May and driven 500 miles, it’s flawless!
Drives and handles excellent, never overheats.
Lights, signals, dash lights all work.
Turn signals don’t reset, needs a kit.
Trans is dipping a few drops from park cable bracket
Rear makes a little noise, that is the only part I didn’t rebuild.
This car does not have the Aluminum body pieces.
If you put a pencil to this price it’s not even the cost of parts to build. Might be interested in other Mopar cars?
$69K
Interesting Mopar trades???
