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

Found another shot of Rick Kent's 68 L023 Hemi Dart...so who owns this car now or what name was it raced under.

Very nice shots although all of those photo's are protected so you can't link to them...again cool pics though.

Brodlieb Motors
Woodmere (Long Island), New York

Though a small dealership, it was a dynamo dealership for performance
parts and cars, and held 'Super Car Clinics'.

Some have said that they received a BO29 Hemi Super/Stock Barracuda.

Supposedly, the car was taken out for a test run, and crashed into a
telephone pole,,,,,,?????

The 1965 Barracuda (pictured below), was a 273/180 HP (2-Barrel).
Campaigned in 1965 (I/SA), 1966 (J/SA),1967 (I/SA) and 1968 (N/SA).
It was a very successful stocker out on Long Island (Islip Speedway and Westhampton Dragstrip)

Found another shot of Joe Ralph Thompson's L023 68 Hemi Dart.

He ran a bunch of Dodges back in the day.

I think the first one I saw was his 64 before they altered the wheelbase.

Thanks for the pic.

Here's a few of Rudy Schings B029 68 Hemi Barracuda...anyone here have any info on this car's history, heard it was bought out of Pete Myl's Chrysler in Pennsylvania.

[Steve Stasko]

Tom Myl was the original owner.
