What is "Hemi"?
It's a nice marketing phrase cashing in on the reputation of the past.

Oh yea about the 440 HEMIs, I used to subscribe to Mopar magazine back in the day & there was actually a late 50s or early 60s Chrysler that came with a 440 HEMI... AC & power windows!! They made very few of them & chances of ever seeing one are slim to none, but the fact remans, they were still made
Yea my whole family are classic Mopar freaks.

Rep Power: 0 i hate to bust your chops but their was never a 440 hemi. maybe a model like ex on our civics but never a 440 with hemispherical heads on it. maybe max wedge.

Rep Power: 294 ^^There were only 200-300 produced, so thats why you've never heard of them. I guess that barely passes as being mass produced, but they still made them though.
Edit: After searching around on the net, I cant find anything about this car. Maybee it never made production or something, but I vividly remember reading about it in the magazine, with pics. Cant remember the name, but it was something like an Imperial or something classy like that. Anyway, it very well could have been a 440 block with retrofitted HEMI heads, which I have seen, passed off as production like a hoax or something, who knows. If anyobody saw this let me know, cuz its driving me freaking insane looking for it
