Re: Original hemi dart information
Daryl (Part VII),
The car sat in my fathers driveway for about 3 months, before he changed his mind about racing. He's pretty sure he sold it to (2) brothers
from Mt. Kisco (he thinks the Murphy boys). Not sure if they ever put it together also. Then it dissappeared.
As fpr the car, the only thing I do remember is that it was black, regular quarter-panels, tubbed rear inner-fenderwells. The trunk-lid was a
steel-type unit with rear-molding panel. Not sure if it was hood-pinned or hinged, but it wasn't fiberglass. Front and rear bumpers were chrome-steel. Not sure on the interior, other than roll-bar loop and possibly
lightweigt van seats. Again, can't remember engine compartment, whether the inner fenderwells were cut for 440 headers or not.
Unfortunately never checked the VIN# or other details. The value of the
68' Hemi cars back then were not ...............in outer space. I think my father got the car and both engines for around $3000.
Not even sure on the rear (Dana or 8 3/4")
The good thing........I FOUND A PICTURE OF THE CAR.
Send me a private message with your address. I'll send you a copy.
Maybe it's your car.
Who's car was it. We never reseached it or even scraped off any of the
black paint. Maybe it was the Pomona Speed Shop/Victor's Repair car
or not.
