Default Re: life after Super Stock for the Hemi A-bodies?

Quite a few of them were transitioned into "match race" stockers, the early Pro Stock cars. That movement became real big in 1969, which caused NHRA to recognize it as an eliminator in 1970. A lot of the Darts and Cudas were in the fields of early Pro Stock NHRA racing.

A lot of them stayed in Super Stock, and a lot of them were parked. Most are still in existence, but few of the originals are racing. I think that Chuck Comella's Dart is the only gennie racing. An original one is worth a ton of money. I know where there is one parked in a guy's game room in the Pittsburgh area. No kidding. Bob George has his original, it is probably the most original in the country, as it has the original motor in it.
