1968 Dodge Darts (Factory SS/EA 440's)

Jeg,

I'll put together all the photo's and detailed information concerning these
few cars.

The handful of factory cars did not come from Mr. Norms's (GSS version).
They were from the Chrysler, and were GTS versions.
The 1968 cars, from what we have, did not come through with S/S rear leaf springs.
And the wheel bolt patterns were 4", not 4.5" like the 68' Hemi cars.
Also, drum brakes on the front.

What did Mike Landy run in '68,,,wasn't it one of these,, along side brother Dick's Chargers? My memory is a little foggy this morning.

No,,
Mike Landy drove the 1968 Coronet R/T 440/375 HP,,,,,in SS/F.
Then later in 1968 in SS/FA.

Dick drove the 68' SS/EA Dart, as did Butch Leal and Bob Lambeck.

To borrow from Keyshawn Johnson of ESPN fame....C'MON MAN! Enjoy, Enjoy.

Heck I wish I could afford a car like yours and Darren Smiths, because they're (as Bob Frey would say), WAY UP ON THE COOL-O-METER!!!

This is coming from the more out-spoken Gary H....the one you have to say you're not...LOL!
