John rivers Hemi dart
In regards to john rivers Hemi dart. I know the Original owner of that factory SS dart. Was bought by a man by the name of Fred Carr out of the white bear dodge dealer in Minnesota. He raced the car at twin city speedway and set the track record on his first pass. He never painted the car he ran it in the factory primer. Only had the car a short time before selling it. I have specific details on the car and how it was when he drove it home. I was wondering if anyone had any info on the car after john rivers was killed during a drug deal. Was told that his girlfriend at the time sold the car and trailer for 800$. Just wondering what happens to the car or if it's still around

Re: John rivers Hemi dart
Off the Johnny Rivers topic but...Dean Tait himself in this link states his was a "Dick Landy" car.

Re: John rivers Hemi dart
Bob only had one factory LO23. The original owner was John Hooper. Dean Tait had the car after Lambeck. My opinion is that the LO23 car that was owned by John Rivers was later rebodied, this is the car that was owned by Frazer Dante-Craig Jackson- and the last I knew was in Florida painted black. The car had John Rivers and the others on title work and a lot of original parts but sadly in my opinion was rebodied Fred E

Re: John rivers Hemi dart
