Old Mopar photos

I have a question about the purple Cuda of Stewart Pomeroy near the end of the page. Can anyone verify the history and/or the future of that car from the time that picture must have been taken.

I have been told that was an original Hurst/Sox and Martin car, later owned by Pomeroy, then sold to someone in the Ocala, Fl. area.

The first drag race I attended was a bracket race at Gainesville in early 1980, and there was a man named Tom Shively running a Hemi Cuda there at the bracket race, and I was told this was the car.

I know the car that Shively had was sold to someone else in the area then sold to another person in south Fla. and I am told the car was destroyed when the throttle hung open on the car inside of a garage.

Can anyone verify this?
