Another is this B029 68 Hemi Barracuda originally owned by Park Chrysler/Plymouth, it was then sold in December 1970...it was sold a few more times and then street driven with a stroker motor.

Here's the original 'Checkmate' B029 Hemi Barracuda...the car was sold to Bullet Bob Reed, and later on to a few more recent owners.

I know it's not a Hemi Dart, but that is "Fast Eddie" Schartman in the other lane. 1 of 2 Mercury Cougars built with the Boss 429.
