No more blown engines for Rick Kent, as he switched to a 'Ramchargers'
built engine.

Okay thanks for that info but do you know if it was a fairly original car, or was it turned into a modern day super stocker with all the trick parts.

Daryl,

Still stuck on the Michigan quest for LO23 cars.

Hard to believe only '3' original ordered LO23 cars were
Michigan-based.

* Don R. Brewer Dodge, (Port Huron),,,,(Gil Clark; driver)
* Robert Alton, Town & Country Dodge (Farmington)
* Richard 'Dick' Smith, Town & Country Dodge (Farmington)

We can throw out Van Dyke Dodge, as no has seen any documentation or car photo's.

Anyone have any ideas,,,,,,,,,,,or thoughts..

'Top' Michigan Dodge Dealers;
* Arborland Dodge, Ann Arbor
* Colonial Dodge, East Detroit
* Crestwood Dodge, Garden City
* Don R. Brewer, Port Huron
* Flint Dodge, Flint
* Hodges Dodge, Ferndale
* Holiday Dodge, Traverse City
* Motor City Dodge, Detroit
* Northfield Dodge, Grand Rapids
* Schultz Motors, Milan
* Spartan Dodge, Pontiac
* Taylor Dodge, Warren
* Town & Country Dodge, Farmington
* Tri-City Dodge, Ironwood
* Van Dyke Dodge, Warren
* Bill Vreeland Sales, Adrian
* Westwood Dodge, Livonia

I did some digging and it seems that this B029 Hemi Barracuda was listed as the Old Trapper on the Barrett Jackson's auction website, it also listed a full VIN # and description of the car...I knew that they ran a L023 Hemi Dart called the Old Trapper, but I wonder who's B029 this was originally...anyone, Mark J.

This is a very famous factory B029 Super Stocker raced from 1968 up until a few years ago out of the Northwest. It was known as Old Trapper. All documents and magazines go with the car. Galen Govier certified with papers. Ray Barton engine.

As far as I know, there was no "Old Trapper" 68 Hemi Barracuda - a 70 SS/DA Barracuda yes, a 68 Hemi Dart, 67 Hemi Belvedere - no 68 Barracuda though.
This is the Southland Flyer that the Teuton's raced for many years. They bought the car from Ed Miller - not his original car though.

1969,

Linda Vaughn explaining the mechanics of a 440 6-Barrel, and the
advantages of air-flow and fuel mixture of a 3-carburetor set-up, as opposed to one large carburetor.
Buster Crouch, Ronnie Sox and Buddy Martin, are in-tune with this
important lesson.

Notice the '2' BO29 Super/Stock Hemi Barracuda's, watching from the
background.
