I saw this car the one & only time in Carlisle 2006?. We landed up parked side by side all weekend. Great, great people that owned it at that time. I believe it is an original LO23 as I haven't heard anything of the contrary. It is only a couple serial numbers away from mine. The front markers are definitely an add on. Don't know the background of it tho.

Daryl,
Do you remember where those people were from? The couple that own it now are from Maine.

I just got a call from a guy who is crushing out an old yard. He saw my ad looking for a HemiDart trans/shifter, and told me there is a Dart shell with trans, shifter,reverse lock-out and Dana, wheel wells cut, no motor, front end, glass, and in tough shape. I told him "DON"T CRUSH IT !!!", I may buy it all! I'll keep you posted if it's the real deal..........you never know......

Whoa!!!!. Many of these cars did not get a gracefull retirement. I know of one that was turned into aroundy round dirt track car. Complete withSB Chebby an all. It was within acouple weeks of being crushed when found. Today that car has been "restored."
Hope that car you look at turns into one of those missing links Dave. They're all savable

Where is the yard located at? I'd be willing to bet that there is no VIN on the shell...
