I am looking for pix of LO Darts from that time period 1975-1982??? Don't have to be SS/AA specific. Can even be bracket cars or whatever.
I have a lead that my car was raced @ etown durring this time period. It could have been silver/grey & orange/red or dark gray to black. Rumour has it there was a tunnel ram on this thing at one time, & to cover it there was a hood scoop mounted ON TOP of the original SS scoop.

I'm pretty sure that the Dart in the far lane is the Balzekas Motor Sales Hemi Dart (Southside of Chicago)
from South Archer Avenue, Chicago. They were Grand-Spaulding Dodge's 'crosstown rival'.

That Dart had a lace paint job, similar to Larry Griffith' car.

Hemi A-Go-Go, Ken Holwick out of Salem, Ohio in the near lane.

[quote=TOM KASCH;369740]a few more from the Factory Lightweights book.[/quote

I'm pretty sure that the D/Dart posted by Tom Kasch, that was campaigned Ralph Costa and Ted Spehar, was the first LO23 built by Chrysler.

Sorry, no I don't. I found that one somewhere on the net looking for anything that may help find the history of Liteweight's Hemi Dart.

I went searching some old Tennessee drag strip internet sites and can't find any more pics either.

There has to be more out there. Somewhere.
