Original hemi dart information

[Jared Jordan]

I prefer the original color combo myself as well. I always thought that car was great-looking. I'd like to see that paint scheme on a modern-day version in SS/AH -- called Hemi Countdown III, naturally.

Welcome here. Can always use some fresh blood & photos. Great shot of your grandfathers car. I actually prefer the color combo pre the current restored Mickey Weise colors.
Also in checking the background stuff in the pits it, looks like an ex S&M 67 B body behind it.

If I remember correctly that would say Fink's Used Cars on the side of that former S&M plymouth.
How do I remember this stuff and can't remember what I had for lunch yesterday?

called 'Hemi Count Down'...really like this car.

So, I'm looking at this pic. & it sure looks like the car is classed as a SS/AA car. Bad angle????
What year did NHRA decide nothing factory made was going to be faster than the LO & BO cars & change the class from SS/B to SS/A

Daryl,
This is a different Wildfire Dart - I was told that this one was not an original Hurst car
