If any of these Chrysler built cars came delivered from the factory with the famous 426 Hemi V-8 under the hood, it\u2019s indeed a worthy Top 10 candidate.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The reason I choose the Dodge Challenger is because it\u2019s always been one of my favorite cars with either a 426 Hemi or a 383\/440 under the hood. Further, the Dodge Challenger\u2019s big block offerings were only available for just two years (1970 and 1971) of its five-year production run from 1970 to 1974.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">However, making my personal Top 10 list sometimes finds me concentrating on the actual muscle car engine more so than the brand and model of the car. This article is a perfect example whereas the Hemi engine is many times more famous than the car it sits in. (This means all you Road Runner fans can take solace that a 1968 Plymouth Road Runner is just as important as the 1970 Dodge Challenger if both are Hemi powered.)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_98173\" style=\"width: 360px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2023\/10\/Car_Collector3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-98173\" class=\"size-full wp-image-98173\" src=\"http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2023\/10\/Car_Collector3.jpg\" alt=\"Collector Car Corner \/ Cars We Remember; No. 9 on the Top 10 Muscle Cars of All-Time: 1970 Dodge Challenger 426 Hemi&nbsp;\" width=\"350\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2023\/10\/Car_Collector3.jpg 350w, http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2023\/10\/Car_Collector3-246x300.jpg 246w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-98173\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Here\u2019s an ad for a 1966 Dodge Coronet mentioning the Hemi 426 availability.&nbsp;The 426 Hemi debuted as an off-road, race only addition back in 1964; but by 1966 Plymouth and Dodge offered the 426 Street Hemi as an option to allow use in the NASCAR races. (Dodge)<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\">From past Hemi memories, my brother and I bought a &#8217;53 Dodge 4-door sedan with a Hemi under the hood for $25 in 1966. We never did anything with it as Uncle Sam had different basic training plans for us both, so we sold our \u201953 Hemi back to the guy we bought it from for $20. (Yep \u2013 depreciation.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">That 1953 Dodge featured a scaled-down version of the first ever Chrysler 331 Hemi V8 that appeared in 1951 putting out 180 horsepower. The smaller Dodge Hemi, dubbed the \u201cRed Ram,\u201d measured 241 cubic inches and produced 140-horsepower.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Enough of the older Hemi engines, which grew to 392 inches prior to the return of the 426 race and Street Hemi applications.&nbsp;The all-new 1964 426 Hemi was produced by Chrysler for use in NASCAR and drag racing and appeared on the tracks in Plymouth and Dodge lines. Richard Petty won the Daytona 500 in 1964 in a Hemi Plymouth Belvedere while drag racers like Ronnie Sox, Butch Leal, Bud Faubel, Dick Landy, and Jim Thornton made big names for themselves behind the wheel of Hemi powered MOPARS.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_98172\" style=\"width: 553px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2023\/10\/Car_Collector2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-98172\" class=\"size-full wp-image-98172\" src=\"http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2023\/10\/Car_Collector2.jpg\" alt=\"Collector Car Corner \/ Cars We Remember; No. 9 on the Top 10 Muscle Cars of All-Time: 1970 Dodge Challenger 426 Hemi&nbsp;\" width=\"543\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2023\/10\/Car_Collector2.jpg 543w, http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2023\/10\/Car_Collector2-300x110.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 543px) 100vw, 543px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-98172\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A big celebration was held in 1994 celebrating 50 years of the Chrysler Hemi legacy.

(Chrysler Museum)<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\">After dominating the races in 1964, Chrysler\u2019s 426 Hemi was not allowed to compete in NASCAR&#8217;s 1965 season due to its unavailability to the general public consumer.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">This new race-only 426 Hemi, with its 12.5 compression, started a horsepower war with Ford that eventually led to Ford building its own 429 Hemi to combat the MOPAR Hemi. However, NASCAR stepped in and outlawed both engines from competition for 1965. To try and please NASCAR, the 426 race Hemi became available in the Dodge Coronet \/ Plymouth Belvedere line and offered the engine as an &#8220;off road&#8221; designate and not suitable for street use. One of my friends, the late Ken Montgomery, was one of the fortunate drag racers to acquire one and he went on to fame driving his &#8220;Triple Nickel&#8221; No. 555 Plymouth drag racing entries, winning countless class wins and several NHRA national events along the way.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">However, NASCAR still outlawed the 426 Hemi for use on its tracks in 1965, which found the NASCAR Chrysler Hemi corporate sponsor team money moving over to the nation\u2019s drag strips, where NASCAR champs Richard Petty and David Pearson competed in Plymouth and Dodge Hemi drag cars for one year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Even though the NASCAR Hemi fans were quite upset, things were really starting to happen on the drag strips. Everything from Hemi altered wheelbase fuel injected early MOPAR funny cars to top fuel nitro dragsters dominated the scene as the new 426 allowed racers who relied on the older style 392 Hemi an opportunity to switch over to the new, more durable and powerful engine.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_98174\" style=\"width: 691px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2023\/10\/Car_Collector4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-98174\" class=\"size-full wp-image-98174\" src=\"http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2023\/10\/Car_Collector4.jpg\" alt=\"Collector Car Corner \/ Cars We Remember; No. 9 on the Top 10 Muscle Cars of All-Time: 1970 Dodge Challenger 426 Hemi&nbsp;\" width=\"681\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2023\/10\/Car_Collector4.jpg 681w, http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2023\/10\/Car_Collector4-300x110.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 681px) 100vw, 681px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-98174\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Similar in popularity is the 1970 Plymouth Cuda\u2019 426 Hemi, a sibling to the Challenger yet two inches shorter in wheelbase length than the Dodge. (Mecum Auctions)<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cBig Daddy\u201d Don Garlits figured out the new Hemi could take more punishment than the 392, especially with advanced ignition timing, and the pattern was set. Teams like The Ramchargers, Color Me Gone and The Lawman (to name just a few) attracted packed grandstands at weekly Super Stock and Factory Experimental match races, as they all figured out the new 426 Hemi was the \u201creal deal.\u201d The new Hemi stood up to major punishment better than the 392, regardless of what you fed through the fuel lines be it gasoline, alcohol or nitromethane. The pattern was set as the Elephant 426 was and in many instances still is the preferred choice in drag racing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Getting back to NASCAR, Chrysler knew it had to make its 426 Hemi available to the general public, so it introduced what we all knew then as a heavily detuned &#8220;Street 426&#8221; Hemi in 1966 for its intermediate Dodge and Plymouth cars. This resulted in the Hemi cars now being legal for NASCAR competition and found Petty and many other NASCAR teams returning to the 426 Hemi on the nation\u2019s NASCAR speedways. Not surprisingly, they won loads of races with the Hemi as Richard Petty nabbed the Daytona 500 in a 1966 Hemi Plymouth Satellite \/ Belvedere, which is perhaps one of the most iconic and beloved Petty race cars of all-time. (No, I didn\u2019t consider any winged Plymouth Superbirds or Dodge Daytonas for the Top 10 list. They were homely looking and not practical on the highways, but I\u2019d sure love to own one today.)<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_98175\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2023\/10\/Car_Collector5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-98175\" class=\"size-full wp-image-98175\" src=\"http:\/\/www.greenstreetdata.com\/PS\/owego\/files\/2023\/10\/Car_Collector5.jpg\" alt=\"Collector Car Corner \/ Cars We Remember; No. 9 on the Top 10 Muscle Cars of All-Time: 1970 Dodge Challenger 426 Hemi&nbsp;\" width=\"300\" height=\"234\"><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-98175\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The first Hemi appeared in the Chrysler \/ Imperial line of 1951.

Further, even the \u201cnormal production\u201d Hemis are very valuable and popular on auction sites like Barrett-Jackson and Mecum.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Most of these \u201cnormal production\u201d 426 Street Hemi Plymouths came in the Satellite \/ GTX, Roadrunner and Barracuda \/ Cuda\u2019 line while the Dodge camp includes Coronet, Challenger, Charger, and Super Bee. Notable is that in 1966 a few Hemi engines were ordered in Dodge Coronet 4-doors and station wagons, as you could order the Street Hemi in any of the Dodge-Plymouth full-size offerings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">In summary, both the race and street version engines weighed in at a massive 843 lbs., with the Street Hemi featuring 10.5 compression and milder cam for better daily driving characteristics. Those who purchased those early production \u201coff road only\u201d Hemi Plymouths and Dodges are sitting on perhaps $500,000 and up when it comes to valuable collector cars, while normal-production Hemis go for over $100,000 on a regular basis, especially when they sit between frame rails of a Plymouth GTX or Dodge Coronet R\/T.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Oh yes, or a 1970 Challenger R\/T, too.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">We\u2019re getting ready for our final installment of No. 10 on the Top-10 list.
