According to my soucres, the Hemi was available in production autos in '65. I 
know it was there for sure in '67 as a friend had a '67 GTX with it. This was 
in '74, he bought it in bone stock (except paint and wheels) shape for $2000. 
He thrashed it for two years and sold it in '76 for the same price he paid 
and thought he did good.
