Default Re: Original hemi dart information

I am familiar with this car but have had problems identifying the original owner - the photos are mine (I own the negatives - probably from an earlier search of mine from years ago). Great Lakes Dragaway is about 20 min. from my house and I have shown these to many of the old racers if that era and no one seems to remember the car. I contacted a Hemi Dart owner in the Chicago area about 10+ years ago that confirmed that the Dart is the car he had. It was green with lace. Supposedly the car was run for a year and then sold - racing mostly at US 30 Dragway in IN. I have an old for sale ad from late 68- early 69 when someone named Jim was selling a Hemi Dart in Chicago - possibly this same car. Possibly Jimmy Evans?? I belive that I know where the car is now but a few of the newer owners have been difficult getting info from - I think they tried throwing me off the trail. I am not sure that is the correct dealer name- I have it in my notes somewhere but it was a cross-town rival of Grand-Spaulding Dodge.
