I don't know what happened to them after that.

Was his name Frank Spittle by any chance, he used to put on muscle car shootouts and reunions back then in the late 80's and 90's down there...as far as the 'black' 68 Hemi Barracuda you mention, the only one that comes to mind is Bullet Bob Reed's old car that he once owned.
