In 1968, that Manhattan Speed Shop {or Parts} Dart was at the
WCS Points meet at Englishtown, New Jersey.

They ran against Charlie Castaldo in Eliminations.

Might "Manhattan" (with an a) have been the last name of a racer and / or speed shop owner, and not "Manhatten" - the city?

good eyes Steve!!!! I missed that one

so, we started off as Manhatten Speed Shop
next Manhatten Speed Parts
Now Manhattan Speed Parts

Think we might have the correct name on this car now
might explain the non connection to the actual speed Shop that was in Manhatten, NY

now just gotta fiqure out, is it a misprint???, Like the class designation of SS/B rather than SS/BA that's associated with this car also

Kickin' & Screamin'. This car just won't give up it's identity easily will it?

Hey Daryl,

I am Scott ...not Steve, but I understand how easy it is to mix up a name when we all have super secret internet handles that we go by these days.

Hopefully Manhattan with an "A" will lead to some solid evidence. All of this suspense lately is keeping me awake at night.

I have a hard enough time membering peoples names even after meeting them personally......... Damn...... age sucks. What's in the bag of tricks next?? does it come in the form of a purple pill??? Noooo,say it ain't so. I refuse................................ No pokin with no ropin

Gentleman,

'Manhattan' is Manhattan, New York

Manhattan Speed Shop was located on the border of The Bronx
and Manhattan, off of Bronx Boulevard.

Very close to Linder Oldsmobile......... which was on Bronx Boulevard, Bronx, New York
