For the information passed on to me.
On the Bill Flynn SS/B Hemi Dart.
The sponsorship deal between Bill Flynn and his previous group
"The New York Dodge Dealers", who sponsored his 66' Cuda A/FX
Funny Car ended.
Very odd, a Connecticut-based drag racer drives a 66' Plymouth Barracuda, and is sponsored by the "New York Dodge Dealers".
Looks like the Long Island, dealers wanted A/FX-Funny Car exposure at the new Long Island Drag Strip (New York National Speedway).
Since Bill was an established Dodge/Plymouth racer, he was offered
one of the first-run Hemi Darts. The first 50 or 56, depending on
what information is out there. Whether he paid the racers price of
$4200 or not, cannot be documented. The car was sponsored by
County Dodge, New Haven. Not completely sure if it was delivered to County Dodge for Bill Flynn, or if it was delivered to Bill Flynn at his Performance Center, and then sponsored by County Dodge?
One thing is for sure, the Dart "Yankee Peddler" was at the Super Stock Magazine Nationals, at New York National on 7/21/68, as part of the
Magnificent "11".
