HemiDartDave
Congrats on your new purchase. Car looks great!!! A stick car AND to know it's complete background..... I'm totally jealous !!!!!! Looking forward to seeing it in person one day. is there any original paperwork with it? Steve & Paul Thankyou for your contributions. As you know this isn't an exact science, & there are a few holes missing including my own personal black hole. I'm thinking that the more accurate info that is brought out to the public, the more accurate the list will become. So, cooperation from everyone is an asset for everyone. liteweight |
Re: Original hemi dart information
Thanks Daryl, I can finally live up to my name here! I don't have any more paperwork than a title and a letter from Ed Knezevich's secretary saying she sent out a title for the car. A friend just informed me that he just saw a photo of an A990 "MISTER ED" owned by Ed K. in the "Muscle Car Chronicle" book, so I ordered it for myself and will post the pic.

Dave, I ran across a pic of the Mr. Ed 65 Dodge on the wall of a car museum in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina in December. I can't get it to post but PM me your e mail and I will send it to you.

Re: Original hemi dart information
Paul C.....Do you know if Tony Chickery, who raced the "MISTER ED" Dart, is still around? It would be interesting to talk to him......

Tony Chickery passed away around 2004 or so. I have most of the details on how Tony purchased the car. In late-1970, he saw an Advertisement in National Dragster. The Hemi Dart 4-Speed {lettered ''Mister Ed' } went for $6000 {if I remember correctly}. Tony had to pick up the car in Greenup, Kentucky ~ not in Ohio. If I remember correctly, the Dart ran in 'SS/A' for the last month or two of 1970 {October/November} when Tony ran it Dover Drag Strip. A beautifully painted car......... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When they went to pick up the Dart, they were told to go to Columbus Ohio. Make a left {on Route 23}, and head South for 2-Hours. |
