"Seller" is living on another planet... If that Hemi only made 471 HP he needs a better engine builder. And if he thinks it will run in the 9's with only 471 HP then that Dart only weighs about 2000 pounds... unlikely, ya think?

Chrysler had aluminum Hemi heads in 1968?

Cool car but the article is full of crap.
