This is one of my favorite internet threads. Has anyone contacted Kenny owner of East Hills Chrysler on Long Island New York.. His family had a Factory Hemi car as they owned a local dealer since wayyyy back, I believe it was wrecked playing in the streets around their shop I think I read. The parts manager there, Carl would be able to help w contact info as he is a dyed in the wool Mopar Die Hard.

April 11, 1968 (Hayward, California)

Chrysler Performance announced that '9' Super Car Clinic Teams
will be parading dealerships with their new 1968 Hemi Super/Stock
Drag Race Cars.

* Sox & Martin
* Ed Miller
* Arlon Vanke

Have already started the clinics around their local areas.The initial buzz
is that these specially built 1968 Hemi Barracuda's are 6/10's of a second
quicker in the quarter-mile than the already dominant 1965 Super/Stock Plymouth and
Dodge cars campaigning now.

Sox & Martin have been performing their Super Car Clinics since January 1968, with their
new 1968 Plymouth 440 GTX, which runs at 116 MPH while campaigning in the NHRA
SS/F class.

The team also has a new 1968 426 Hemi Road Runner with a fiberglass front-end, that
runs in the AHRA S/S Experimental Class. The Road Runner is capable of reaching 134 MPH
in the Quarter-Mile, and with Elapsed Times of 10.60.
