\"1964<\/a><\/p>\n

Roadster Shop<\/a> built this 1964 Dodge Polara<\/a> for Jesse James<\/a>. The unique car is powered by a twin-turbo 426 ci (6.9L) HEMI V8 built by Wegner Motorsports<\/a>. The motor is capable of 1500 hp (1118 kW) thanks to twin Garrett GTX3582R turbochargers connected to custom titanium exhaust manifolds. Behind the motor is a Bowler Carbon Edition T56<\/a> six-speed manual transmission. Behind that is a Driveshaft Shop driveshaft and 9-inch rear end with a Strange center section. After 3D scanning the car, Roadster Shop made a custom Fast Track chassis<\/a> featuring a 4-link rear suspension, Penske adjustable coilovers, and Baer 14-inch brakes. The fenders and wells surround a set of Forgeline OE1 19-inch wheels<\/a> with Nitto NT505R tires. View more photos of the car in the build album<\/a>. <\/p>\n
