Re: Original hemi dart information
This is Balzekas Motor Sales L023 68 Hemi Dart, they were another Chrysler Dodge dealership out of the Chicago area ...looks like but it's not Larry Griffith's L023 Hemi Dart.

Re: Original hemi dart information
Liteweight, I don't know anymore details on it, maybe Mark J or Paul C may know, I seen old photos of it a few years ago and thought the car was from that area...anyway how did your search go on the Manhattan Speed Shop 68 Hemi Dart go, did you find anything out.

Re: Original hemi dart information
I am familiar with this car but have had problems identifying the original owner - the photos are mine (I own the negatives - probably from an earlier search of mine from years ago). Great Lakes Dragaway is about 20 min. from my house and I have shown these to many of the old racers if that era and no one seems to remember the car. I contacted a Hemi Dart owner in the Chicago area about 10+ years ago that confirmed that the Dart is the car he had. It was green with lace. Supposedly the car was run for a year and then sold - racing mostly at US 30 Dragway in IN. I have an old for sale ad from late 68- early 69 when someone named Jim was selling a Hemi Dart in Chicago - possibly this same car. Possibly Jimmy Evans?? I belive that I know where the car is now but a few of the newer owners have been difficult getting info from - I think they tried throwing me off the trail. I am not sure that is the correct dealer name- I have it in my notes somewhere but it was a cross-town rival of Grand-Spaulding Dodge.
