Original hemi dart information

I've been lurking for a couple of years and joined just to add one more Dart that I have not seen mentioned.

A homebuilder, Joe Ralph Thompson from Rison Arkansas, ran a red Hemi Dart. I remember there was also a PHR ( I believe) centerspread on it from a Texas race one year as a Pro Stock. I believe Gene Graham was the driver. It was set up at Sox and Martin. Don't know if it was a real one or a clone. I was a teenager and didn't know what a clone was.

Saw it at Carlisle and Stuttgart Dragway (Arkansas) a few times and then it vanished.

Dwight Southerland might remember this car.
