Bob only had one factory LO23. The original owner was John Hooper. Dean Tait had the car after Lambeck.

The car had John Rivers and the others on title work and a lot of original parts but sadly in my opinion was rebodied Fred E

Give it time. I am certain there will be questions.
Welcome to the forum. There is always room for someone with history and memories here.

Re: John rivers Hemi dart
 

Ok.... I’ll ask for any history or comment you have on this car. This forum has become a history lesson. Please contribute first hand knowledge. THAT is the best kind !
Thanks in advance

Re: John rivers Hemi dart
 

I purchased it in about 1977. Drag raced it and street raced it. Had a lot of fun with it but I was always paranoid about street driving it mainly if someone leaned on one of the doors. I removed the hemi when I purchased it and swapped in the one from my hemi roadrunner. Left on the inlines and drove it around and even drove it back and forth to work. There's been a LOT of stories on this car and believe me everyone had to get there share of $$$. That not what I owned/sold it for. It's a shame how everyone knows better than me. This whole thing really irritate me. I guess I'll just stop now. Thanks for your interest.
