One of the earliest appearances by the 1968 Hemi Super Stockers,

At the April 6 & 7, 1968 Southeast Division '2' Points Meet.

Phenix Dragway, Alabama

John Livingston, SS/B Hemi Barracuda wins Super Stock Eliminator

Larry Cooper, SS/BA Hemi Dart, Runner-Up to John Livingston

Since there were no established National Records for these cars,
the NHRA instituted a minimum;
SS/B = 10.90
SS/BA = 11.00

Slicks 10.5" x 15" , 28.5" tall

Rims; 15" x 8" (Special off-set steel rims from the factory)

Cragar did make a chromed set of the factory steel wheels.

Cragar, Keystone and Fenton also made off-set mags for the rear.
