It became the white one shown, stll had the same paint in 2000-01. Herb and Danny both had a chance to look at it at the Indy Trade show sitting in the parking lot on a ramp truck. There also are pics of the car with the Sox and Martin paint job with West Virgina Hemi on the Door If it would have been anyone elses car it would never have been repainted in 2001, the car was that nice!!

Paul
Are you sure these 2 pix are of the same car???? I'm looking at the hood colors & they're not the same.

Daryl,

The fenders and decal placement are the same on those cars.

Yes, the hood and front-grille paint scheme are different, but it is the
same car.

Sox & Martin went to the 1968 Springnationals at Englishtown with only
one BO29. The NHRA #784 car.

Re: Original hemi dart information
 

So if Sox & Martin did repaint the hood on the car from white to blue sometime during the '68 season as mentioned, then is this the same car that was at the '69 Detroit auto show...notice it does not have the engine call out on the right & left edges of the hood.

And...no wide blue stripe between the white and blue paint line either. At least none my tired old eyes can see.

Re: Original hemi dart information
 

Here's a couple of old shots of Sam Carroll's B029 '68 Hemi Barracuda that he bought off of Sox & Martin...which he later repainted.
