The Black Dart that my father had for a brief period in80' or so, doesn't look to be Daryl's. The Dart my father got, had the rear quarter-panels(factory modified) replaced with standard 68' units. But still the mystery continues.The odd thing, the Dart my father got had the rear-end narrowed for the slicks to fit under the conventional rear fender-wells. Daryl's car had a narrowed rear too. UGH!!More questions than answers.Paul

paul i love the fact that you are trying so hard to figure this out but i was there when my dad and uncle ray brought this car home and you could see where it said charlie castaldo on the car, it also had shadows on the driver side window from where lettering was with a name but i cant remember what it said , i remember the car having a red or maroon paint on it, i also had a customer that lived down the street from my shop in fishkill plains named tony _______? italian, dark hair, receedeing hair line, glasses, 5'8"-9" that was a parts manger at a dodge dealership near peekskill?, he used to help on charlie's car he came and looked at the car and said yes it was definatly the car, the car we had had the stock hemi wheel openings, i wanted that dart so bad for my first race car !!!!!!! i think they sold it to tim for like $6500.00, i have been going through box after box of pictures at my dads house and cannot find any pictures to document what car we had and i know we took plenty of them when the car showed up and after paul pittman painted it white.
