Re: Original hemi dart information
I think we're going on the premiss that the "Unveiling of his new Hemi Dart" at Chorches in late 68 early 69 with the new paint scheme,lettering & outfitted with 69 trim etc. was a second car. This very well could have been his original car because Ma Mopar wanted the factory teams to update to current model year, but in reality it was the original car being showcased for the new 69 model year.
This current car has a very late first production VIN on it. So, the question is, what was the first time ,in 68, was a Peddler car seen or photograhed and when were these later production cars made available. Again because of the late VIN of the current restored Peddler LO, why would have a factory racer been put on the end of the list of available cars rather than toward the beginning of the first run???
