Default Re: Original hemi dart information

[QUOTE=Hemi Moose;270318]Calling Jack Arnew, has anyone contacted you lately about that black 68 Hemi Dart that you said you bought out of NY years ago that was posted earlier on here. If so can you tell that story again, because it would be very interesting to here it again and maybe you might recall a few more details about the car.

Do you remember what the 68 Hemi Dart looked like, was it the one in the black & white picture I posted a few pages back, #1031. And do you remember if there was any lettering on the car, or did it have Keystone Classic mag wheels on it, or did it have something else on it. Anything else that you can remember about the cars condition as well when you bought it?

About the Dart I purchased somewere around 1975. The car was bought from a people who owned the thing or had bought it from someone who had it in a body shop that burned. Owner or owners were black and I picked the Dart up at a garage in Hampsted Ny.
Nice place, was told to get the car and be out of town before dark. Also if the traffic light at the botton of the hill was red too run it, do not stop at the intersection.
Dart was white . Fenders and hood were burned, but not to the point that they had to be replaced. Can't remember any lettering.Had body paint removed as soon as we got it home.Relocated rear subframes inboard 3 inches each side for clearence.
At that time someone made an offer that was too good to pass up so I sold it. Another great move on my part. If I had all the racecar I had ownedand sold I would be very well off, but thats another story.
Sorry no record of who I sold to.
