Re: Original hemi dart information
S & K Speed Shop
Route 109 North Lindenhurst, Long Island, New York Out by me. I saw them run that SS/B Hemi Dart at New York National Speedway and WestHampton Dragstrip. Owners, Bryan Higgins and Ernie Krieg. It was an original car that they got from the factory in April 1968. By their own admission, the Dart was 'cumbersome', and they switched over to a 1969 S/S AMX in early-1969, and sold the Hemi Dart in late-1969. Here at the 1968 Super Stock Magazine Nationals (New York National Speedway) The Dart is not lettered with 'The Avenger', and has black rimmed rear wheels.

Misinformation, as they sold the Hemi Dart in 1969, not 1968. Last edited by Paul Ceasrine; 12-28-2012 at 08:39 PM. |

Re: Original hemi dart information
What's that silver thing hanging out from under the front bumper of the S&K '68 Hemi Dart...and that is still one cool looking L023 in my books!

Re: Original hemi dart information
Daryl,
This is the S & K Dart 'The Avenger' in late-1969 Now owned by Ronald Lyles (The Mutt Brothers) of Brooklyn, New York. In late-1969, the SS/B NHRA record at that time was around 10.40. The Mutt Brothers Hemi Dart was running around 10.90's at that time. Last edited by Paul Ceasrine; 12-28-2012 at 08:50 PM. |
