There was a guy named Frank Johanson in New Jersey who had 2 Mopars in the mid 60's, both black, a Max wedge and a hemi, both called Huckleberry Hound. He sold them both to 1 person but I don't know who that was. He then bought a 69 COPO 427 Camaro for SS/DA, ran it for a few years and sold it. Here's a pic of the Camaro.

No pix in my collection of Frank's Mopars, just his Chevy.

Looks like that lead panned out then, so how did you positively identify it as being the car...nice looking '65 A990 Coronet, is it a auto or stick.

Nice find Charlie, but I'm wondering if this was a real A990 car to start with according to this statement below...anyone here know for sure.

Quote:

This car was originally a "doner" car for an altered WB car built at Branster's shop for Roger Lindamood. The car was originally "given" to Ron Mancini as a body in white roller. Ron didn't do anything with it, he was building his 68 Dart and Hoover decided I could put it to good use. I got the car with a crashed 65 4 door car for $300 from Ron.
I put the car together with all my own stuff. Don't get me wrong, Allot of good people at Chrysler helped me learn real fast what I needed to know to screw a competitive car together and have a shot.
