Original hemi dart information

[Paul Ceasrine]

Daryl,

Your original question "Original Hemi Dart Information".
It has turned into one of the most informative threads.

On the Finks Used Cars' Super/Gas Dart.
Looks like a mid-70's photo.
Fink's (out of Zainesville, Ohio) picked up many factory
Super/Stock cars from the original owners.
Wonder if that Dart was Mary Ann Foss original 'Go Hummer II".
Zainesville only about an hour away from Bellville, Ohio.
Or possibly, from Dependable Dodge out of Mansfield, Ohio.

A friend of mine purchased a 66 Hemi Coronet from Carrol Fink several years back, & when he picked it up he was fortunate enough for Carrol to give him a tour of his car collection which included this same Dart in it's "as raced" condition from the 80's . The 71 hemicuda convert. was in there too. This car built from a 340 car.

Thanks Paul, I try. Glad you like it.

Yes, it could pass for that time period; however, if you recall, Super Gas wasn't an Eiminator until the early 1980s. Also, notice whose name is right below the Rod Shop Dodge lettering on the front fender. From what I understand, Butch Leal teamed up with Rod Shop in 1983, so if he had a hand in building the car (from the start), it was no earlier than this date.

One of my all-time favorite paint schemes and Mopar Super Stock car.

There were 2 yellow Mancini Darts - the only Hurst car that Ron had was the brown/blue later painted red/silver. One of the yellow cars was built from a 69 and the other from a 70 body-in-white converted to a 68.

Yes, I know this is an old post but, in comparing these 2 pistures of Fink dart and Foss dart, both seem to have same decal on drivers vent window. Same car???

Hard to tell on my phone but that decal looks to be standard issue NHRA Decal??
