Looking at posting # 56, in the middle picture, of Bob Lambeck's Cuda launching, the front wheels, to my old eyeballs, look like the Cragars, whereas the wheels on the Dart have a different appearance to me, and I'm not referring the chrome center caps.
Take care,,,, Danny Durham

At first glance, the front wheels do look like Centerlines with Cragar polished aluminum plate in the center. Perhaps Bob had a prototype set of Super Tricks with rivets as opposed to bolts? The only one who knows for sure is Mr. Lambeck.

Hey M68, any idea who's '68 Hemi Dart the Wayne County car was originally...it probably changed hands a few more times but it kinda looks like one of Bob Reed's later cars.

No, I don't. The only name I can associate with this car is Wayne Dokken.
