You are usually right on the money but the Steve Kent SS/AH Cuda is not an X Eddie Smith car. Built at East Texas Race Cars. The only Eddie Smith car Kent had/has is one of the two 63 Corvettes that ran as E/A with small block Chevys.

The Miller & McCallum (Don McCallum) '68 Hemi Cuda SS/AA car has been parked for a while now. Don s getting up there so that could be the reason. I don't think it's been sold either.

Re: SS/A , SS/AA , SS/AH hemis , parked?
 

Don MacCallum hasn’t owned that car for quite awhile ,his last car was bought by Don Cloake . MacCallum drove the car for Cloake after Cloake purchased it and had Cloake ,Miller, and MacCallum on the door , Cloake took over the driving duties years ago and still races it as of last year . MacCallums first in the 8s (Don ran it first Bucky backed it up)Cuda he had before that car went to Eddie Smith , last I heard Bill Brooks from Florida had it but haven’t heard of it for years , anyone know what Bills doing with the Car?

Re: SS/A , SS/AA , SS/AH hemis , parked?
 

My last conversation with Alberta Brooks(around Christmas time) was the engine was being freshened, but had no fire in it yet. No plans for racing dates were mentioned at that time. I've attached a picture of the car and a replica I built for them.:)

Re: SS/A , SS/AA , SS/AH hemis , parked?

I appreciate your compliment.

The last time I saw Don race the Cuda was at Grand Bend in 2005 or 2006. If I recall it was a Nostalgia Super Stock event. I lost touch with Don after that. His name came up the other day thus my post.

Thanks for the update on the Cuda, Hopefully the car will reappear.

Don Cloake races his Cuda regularly with the Can/Am Stock - Super Stock group based in southern Ontario.

Hemitime: sorry for the delay in posting the engine compartment of Bill Brooks replica. And I'm also not trying to hi-jack the thread, just a mere diversion. Now back to the real deal.

I'm not sure how much Rick Jones Race Cars updates their website but this 68 has been on their website for awhile. They say its a former SS Hemi car.

Hasn't been out in years but awesome car. No idea if he still has it but suspect it's sitting forever. Another is Peter Willie out of Victoria BC. He still has his car along with a rather large bunch of other amazing Mopars but hasn't raced in a few years. Hopefully he'll return soon.

Re: SS/A , SS/AA , SS/AH hemis , parked?
 

It is indeed an ex SS/AA race car.

Re: SS/A , SS/AA , SS/AH hemis , parked?
 

The exaggerated hood scoops are cartoon like. Not for me.

Re: SS/A , SS/AA , SS/AH hemis , parked?
 

Frito, who's ex SS/AA was this ?

Re: SS/A , SS/AA , SS/AH hemis , parked?
 

Look at Rick Jones website's photos tubular A arms ---hood scoop ---dash ---K member --steering and other things that will have to be converted back to original to run as a SS-- no idea whose car it is or the serial number either--He wants a lot of money for it too like $129,900

Re: SS/A , SS/AA , SS/AH hemis , parked?
 

I agree.....It looks like poop ! Its what you see a lot of at the NMCA Nostalgia S/S class. !

Re: SS/A , SS/AA , SS/AH hemis , parked?
 

One of the cars bought at the Brotherton/Elite auction after they acquired what was left of the Eddie Smith deal. Monte Bailey had the car rebuilt at RJ but passed away before it was done. He also was having a Dart built at another well known shop

Re: SS/A , SS/AA , SS/AH hemis , parked?
 

Thanks for the info ,so this was one of the white barracudas Smith had? Also was the dart being built a fresh build or ex SS car being rebuilt?

Re: SS/A , SS/AA , SS/AH hemis , parked?
 

I was at that race at Grand Bend and yes indeed he was driving that car.
