Re: Manhattan Speed Parts '1968 Hemi Dart'
Photo is from April 1968
Check out the Oldsmobile 4-4-2 'W-30' {Outside Air Induction} Air-Scoops under the front-bumper. The 'SS' Hood was later changed to a Fiberglass 'Stinger Hood'. Last edited by Paul Ceasrine; 01-07-2015 at 02:05 PM. |

71 Dartman,
Good digging, but they are not the same LO23 Dart's. The 'Manhattan Dart' was an Automatic with an 8 3/4" Rear. Herb McAndless had a 4-Speed, with a Dana. |

And...Daryl's Dart shows repair inside the passenger door as well as "Manhattan" Dart has. Look closely and you can see it in that picture. |

Re: Manhattan Speed Parts '1968 Hemi Dart'
I have pictures of the existing building where Manhattan Speed was located through out the late 60's into the 70's.
Has any more info been found on this Dart. I suspect I can find some info by sniffing around since I knew the owners and their Sons for a long time. |

Get over to the Hemi Dart topic and message "liteweight" He has the Dart believed to be the Manhattan Dart.
