Re: Original hemi dart information
h there have just joined the forum...was searching for a forgotten car when i came across your site and thought i could add some insite to a bit of mis information i read....the Demented Dart and the High Roller car are not the same car. the high Roller car is the Chinook Chrysler car...which lost some of its lightweight glass upon a late night tuning session in the service dept when the frequency of the glass didnt like the frequency emitted by the Hemi. also i see 4 cars listed as canadien...firstly its canadian...and secondly i was informed by cam that the only canadian car sold in the country was his...i talked to harold and he said that the high roller car was purchased by chinook from the states. Dick Panter ran the car one year for Cam ...and didnt buy the car...he also didnt own the High roller car as far as i heard. Cams car the demented car...also ran at the '68 winternat's where he was told to slow down...as he was running close to the times of the chrysler sponsered cars....he did...and when he got back to edmonton wa-la there was chrylser sponsership money....he also told me to try and keep the engines together...they were constantly finding wrecked cars to pilfer engines from...one car that i tried to buy later on was a 69 hemi daytona that had been rolled in central alberta...he said he sat in that car in 69 ...with the roof bent down ...and the wing busted off...and heard it run...but couldnt bring himself to pay the $2500 bucks the guy wanted for it. ah those were the days
