But: Car nut says 119" http://www.carnut.com/specs/gen/dodge60.html#chas On 11/30/2011 7:42 PM, Gary H. wrote:
Hum...I think it was the 1964 Plymouth "B" that was 117" wheelbase. The 1964 Dodge "B" stayed at 119". The Dodge "B" went down to 117" in 1965. Thus 1965 Dodge "B" body cars were banned from NASCAR when 119 was set as the minimum wheelbase (and Hemi Heads ruled out). 1965 Plymouth "B" was 116" wheelbase. Thanks, Gary H.-------Original Message------- That info is incorrect. The 64 Dodge rode on a 117" wheelbase. The 63 Dodge rode on a 119" wheelbase.

Surprised to see the '64 Dodge and Plymouth had DIFFERENT WHEELBASES AND LENGTHS -- I though they shared an identical chassis! Dodge has a 119" wheelbase and 210" length. Plymouth has a 116" wheelbase and 206" length. WHERE WAS DODGE\'S EXTRA 3" IN WHEELBASE AND 4" IN LENGTH ADDED? Thanks, Doug in Seattle
