Danny,
Good Hemi Hunting.
An odd-thing. In some early 1968 Dodge Promo's, Dick Landy has
a Charger R/T (SS/D car), with the standard hood.
Then there is the photo at the Winternationals, with #803 on the window, the car is classed in A/MP, and no R/T emblem on the front left hide-away light panel. and the car has the small scoop.
The April 68 SS & DI magazine cover has the Charger (no R/T emblem)
with the larger low-profile scoop. I know the AHRA permitted hood scoops for their S/S class.
They had cars all over the place. I read in one article, that he really didn't want to run the Charger in NHRA SS/D for 68, because of the weight break.
