Original hemi dart information

Good pick-up there. The picture with the Bill Mitchell Camaro and Hemi Dart is from New York National. Noticed that the Dart does not have a front side-light marker. Thought it was Charlie Castaldo's car, but his
first car had a side-light marker.
I'm guessing that photo must be from 68', later in the year. Mitchell ran his 68' in A/MP. The Dart's hood is painted though. As for the
Manhattan Speed Parts car, I'm 90% sure that it was at Englishtown, and did run against Charlie Castaldo. Wonder if that was at the late-March/early-April 69' points meet (crash date).

Heard a couple of the tents at the Russo steele auction blew away Thurs. jan 21 in AZ. Only 1 minor injury to someone ...couple of BO29 barracudas (one a S&M car) were scheduled to be sold there plus some impressive street hemis. Hope no serious damage.

Jason O,
Got photo's of your Uncle's car (Dick Oldfield) at the 1969 (8/10/69)
Super Stock Magazine Nationals at York US 30. With the newer paint job, not the 'Good Guys Hats",,,,Engine must have went bye-bye after that..
RK,
I think the Penn Brothers had something to do with the second ownership of the Sox & Martin 68' Cuda, right after the 70' Winternationals..The only information I could come with, is Sox & Martin won the SS/A class at the
70' Winternationals (Feb 70') 10.44 @ 117.03, which means they were applying the brakes going through the traps...Of course, a couple of those 68' S/S Cuda's with the famous paint scheme were floating around.
