Petty asked Chrysler execs to put him in Dodge machinery, which was aerodynamically superior to the Plymouths that The King was running at the time. Chrysler execs wanted to keep Petty in the Plymouth nameplate purely for marketing reasons, so Petty quit the Chrysler camp entirely and switched to Ford. 3.
