The #929 Hemi Power is, I think, Tommy Smith. Sponsered by Kelly Chrysler-Plymouth of Marietta, GA. They had another racer there, Larry Abbott. Ran a 69 340 stocker called the Sherry Rene (sp) after a daughter who passed at an early age if memory serves me. Looks like Bill Tanner on the front fender. He was one of the 4 U.S. Mopar Clinic guys. Sox, Landy, Groether and Tanner.
Tanner had a shop in Norcross, GA and Warren Barnett used to do some work in part of the shop. When Tanner quit around 71 Warren took over the shop and that was Barnett Racecars/Performance. Was there until they moved to down town Atlanta after buying BCI, Bob Callaham Inc in the 80s. Many think the B in BCI is Barnett but not so.
Just a little history for those who care.
Also Harold Dutton aka Drag Hag who had an original 68 Cuda is still alive and doing some Ford stuff here east of Atlanta. He didn't stay with Mopar too long though he was an original owner of a car that Mopar talked him into. Had a lot of motor problems so went back to Ford. Still see Harold once in a while.

Cool info Stewart. Liteweight and I know of an original 70 hemi cuda , always a racecar, that went thru Barnett's shop. original green with black bench, column shift. Cool racecar that ended up being restored back to stock without tracing it's racing history...
