CLASS RACER FORUM - Original hemi dart information

Never knew that. Thanks Bob. I knew they came with the warranty card, For whatever that was worth. Not many guys kept them, for obvious reasons. I was surprised that my old Landy stick car still had it after all the owners it went through.
Bob, is your current car an early build?

After Bob George re-aquired his original Hemi Dart after twenty some years, he took it to Pittsburgh to "mess around". He took it through a "drive thru" at 10.90 something 120+, no helmet, no belts fastened....the devil made him do it. I took this shot of the big old bear crawling out of it after the pass, before track management came down for an earnest discussion...

Steve,they said I could make a 14 second run,I thought I did.:D:D

Maybe the blue tinted head lights were the giveaway...yes I think it's the ex-Sox & Martin B029.

Frank, in an old conversation Jack Arnew posted here, he once said that when Sam Panutty bought the Sox & Martin '68 Hemi Barracuda off them, he was told to repaint the car, thus the red & white 'Poor Boy' paint scheme.

Here's the '68 Hemi Barracuda of Sam Panutty called 'Poor Boy'...later sold to Jack Arnew and called the 'Carnivorous Cuda'.
