Ron Mancini got his Hemi Dart from Gil Clark in 1969. That car became the Irish Rover, as pictured above.

The yellow Dart pictured above, was owned by Lou Mancini in the late-70's, and was the subject of a magazine article (Car Craft?). That car was originally Charlie Lendrum's if I remember correctly? I know the car came out of central PA, went to Western PA (Car of the Rising Sun), back to central PA (Where Tom Hoover found it), and then to Lou Mancini in Michigan.

Correct,

Ron Mancini bought Gil Clark's Hemi Dart.

Both Gil Clark (Toronto) and Dick Smith (Detroit) were AHRA-contract racers in 1968.
