Still, there has to be some info from that area available that can HOPEFULLY fill in the blank.

At least now Daryl knows another one that his is "not".


The York Bracket Finals were clean across the state,almost 400+ miles from Keystone raceway,closer to Philadelphia,New Jeresy and New York.Div.1 Land of NED(north eastern division)included all the northeastern states down past the Mason Dixon line.If the car was local to Southwestern Pa. we would know it.

thanx for that Bob
I am only quessing my car was participating in that 1977 Bracket race, as there was a decal on the original quarter corning glass window. For all I know at this time, that decal could of been in someones toolbox, & they felt the need to stick it to something.
At least now I know Bob Baughman's car is not mine, but I still don't know if it was @ this bracket race.
This I know for sure, is that Lou Vignonia owned it in the early 80's, it was supposed to have been turn key, & purchased from some guy in Mt. Kistco NY

Paul

Daryl,

I would imagine that the Dart was running in Pro Eliminator in 1977.

At the 1977 Bracket Nationals at York US 30 Dragway most of
of the guys that raced there from my area usually campaigned at
* Lebanon Valley
* Island
* Maple Grove
* Raceway Park
* Connecticut
* Suffolk County {WestHampton}

Rather than load up the whole screen with all the models, I chose this picture to blow up. Seems to say a lot about your Hemi addiction!

Re: Original hemi dart information
 
Chrome Dog,,,, thanks for the reply,,, I figured there was quite a few Cudas available, but there are also more Darts than knew about. Between e-bay and supercar1 .com, I've seen a lot of them I'd like to pick up. Like you,, I've got shelves put up above eye level and I'm running out of space, so I've got to be selective from here on out. Too many cars. Thanks for the photos too.

Daryl,

From what information I gathered, that Dart competed at Lebanon Valley Dragstrip in 1977.

A Pro/Eliminator Bracket competitor.

It qualified for the 1977 NED 1 Bracket Nationals held at York US 30 Dragway.
