Welcome hemidart3
Lurkers are welcome here too. Don't need to own one of these original cars to participate. All stories & pictures of the real cars are a great addition. Yes I saw that date on the picture also, thanx

Moose,
I have most of the complete history on the Carlton Cuda - maybe missing an owner in the middle - car still has Carlton paperwork. I have a number of lists that have been compiled over the years, NHOA and others and have used them to peice histories together. We know the history of Ed's Dart back to about 1970-1 - The people who bought it can't seem to remember exactly who they bought it from - have spoken to them many times. The GO Hummer car was for sale around this time incidentally.

Daryl,
I keep forgetting about the "Cookie Duster" Dart - funny that this cars paint is almost identical to Flynn's (except for the silver on the bottom). There was a Duster that was also called "Cookie Duster" that I saw in an old ND ad from the 80's - it was in MN though.

Hey Mark
Would you mind posting the LO cars that have not been accounted for. Might make my quest a little easier??? I hope.



Hustlin hemi SS/BA .This car has a 270 style trunk finish panel & front fender side markers. A real one?

Paul Richardson,,,,,,,,,,,Miami Valley Dodge out of Ohio,,,,

Rear deck lid (trunk),,,,,,,,,,not a big deal,,

Some guys pulled of the fiberglass deck lid, and replaced it with a
steel trunk lid off of a regular Dart,,,,for a little added weight,,,,

See Dick Landy's 4-speed Dart,,,,,,he has a trim panel fastened to the trunk deck lid,,,,,,,,in several photo's.

The photo of the Miami Valley Dodge SS/BA car is from
the 1968 Springnationals (June 1968) @ Englishtown.

Don't think those guys would have had time to do a complete clone
job back then,,,,,\

1969 AHRA Winternationals
Beeline Dragway,,,,,,,,,Arizona

Can anybody identify the '4' Hemi Darts,,

the one behind the left Dart,,
and the one at the back right...???

The Hemi Dart is painted black now, and some people were saying that there's some controversy about the cars history.

which black hemi dart is it now?
