Trying to respond to the pic of the yellow Doc's Dart but it wouldn't let me post with the pic but here is a tidbit. The cars second owner was Jack Leonard of Wayne, West Virginia. It was bought as a roller and the paint was changed from green/blue to Yellow by Gary Harby and had Mosley NAPA on the door and was later painted red. A Hemi and trans was "borrowed" from Dave Mosley and the car ran locally for a short while before being sold to Roscoe. The pic was taken at Bluegrass Dragway, Lexington Ky and was most likely taken by Bob Rogers or Dave McGee. Roscoe and Terry took the NAPA off the door and in this shot it is running one four barrel with a dominator, bathtub intake and a snorkel scoop IHRA F2/AA Dave Mosley was Frito's next door neighbor

Hello: I'm Gary Jarrell and I'm new to this site. I decided to join after I saw the pic of the yellow Doc's Dart which is my car. This LO23 was bought new by Larry Wilber on 6-25-68 from Gingrich Bros. Inc. of Perrysburg, Ohio. It was one of the last Darts made. Larry raced it under the name of "Chantilly Lace" in the Ohio area. After only a year or so Larry sold it to Wayne Schultz who raced it quite a bit under the name of "S&S Dyno Tuning." Schultz then sold it to Jack Leonard of Wayne, WV. By this tme it had been converted from its original auto trans to a stick shift. Apparently Leonard received it without motor/trans hence the partnership with Mosley. The Leonard/Mosley partnership didn't last and Leonard parked the car outside at his home without motor/trans and with a junk 10 bolt Chevy rear end wired to the leaf springs so he could roll it around. My Dad, Boyd "Doc" Jarrell and I bought it from Leonard in 1975. In 1976 we had a full roll cage, tubs, and other work done by Herb McCandless. We did remove the "Mosley" lettering and renamed the car "Doc's Dart" which it remains to this day although we painted it red, trimmed in silver and black in the mid 1980's. It was still yellow with the fish scales until then. Roscoe Jarrell was our driver in the beginning but later my brother, Terry, took over the driving. Both Terry and "Doc" have now passed away leaving me as current caretaker of the car. It was last raced in 1991 in Bristol with Terry driving. It remains basically as it was in the mid 80's and has never been restored. It still has all its original floors, sheet metal, fiberglass, and all original windows except the right rear quarter glass which shattered at 135 mph at Rockingham. I had it in two car shows this summer and my son and I took it to the Hemi Reunion in Salem, Ohio in 2008. I'll post some current pics later...Gary
