Engine
6.98L (426 cu. in.) OHV V8, dual four-barrel carburetors, 425 bhp

A 1963 Dodge 330 Lightweight, the third of nine such factory-built drag-racing specials produced at Hamtramck, Michigan. Ordered with Chrysler's Aluminum Package — lightweight panels, relocated battery, and a 426 cu. in. Max Wedge V-8 rated at 425 bhp — it was shipped new to Iverson Motor Company in California. After passing through two documented private owners, it received a professional restoration in 2006 and shows only around 2,100 miles from new.

Are you the owner of this car?

This car's public record is built from its auction and competition history. Register your ownership and privately add your own records to make it a verified Legacy Metrics passport — provenance that backs your car's value at sale and gives your insurer evidence to price against. Roy reviews and verifies every registration personally.

Each chassis record is compiled from public auction archives and links to its source material. Ownership, competition and maintenance entries are extracted from those catalogue listings by an LLM, which can make mistakes — please contact us with any corrections. The summary is Legacy Metrics’ own writing; we do not reproduce catalogue text.

“Full” and “partial” documentation labels indicate how well each entry is corroborated in the underlying sources, not an audit of the car’s physical paperwork. Names of recent or living owners are withheld for privacy.
