Can anyone fill in the details of this Dart? Was it a one time LO car?
I notice the '69 marker lights, plastic windows, shaved door handles, spindle mount wheels....but still has rear leafs. Seems like not originally a LO.
It's at Atco, Nhra sanctioning, but appears no class markings on either car. Looks too early for p/s but also the wrong equipment for an m/p car.
I've seen pictures of Chick's Charger that was more funny car/ match racer from around then but was curious if anyone knows the story on this Dart.

I'm pretty sure this is a home-built car. It was a match race-type car built like an Ultra Stock (AHRA/UDRA?) from what I recall.

P.S. Jack Arnew may know

Charger ran Ultra Stock circuit. At the same time Glen Fraiser (BLACK JACK) and I were running a TBolt it that circuit. After Sam's father (Sam Auxier Sr.) started the Super Stock circuit and I was driving for Sam Pannuty I lost any connection With Chuck's rides. I'll email Chick and ask him about the Dart, and get back to you all. Memory ain't what it was 40 odd years ago.
