Original hemi dart information

All,

Make sure the lower radiator hose has the original "spring" it in to prevent the hose from collapsing as that RPM's climb. Once that was installed, I never had an overheating issue with the stock radiator, even without a fan shroud.

Hey Daryl have you seen this.
Darn it. I can?t download a file on my phone.
Look up Race City Retro on Facebook or Instagram. They have a New York national shirt and there is a photo of your Dart in the ad I believe. Good luck man.
Oops the photo showed up. Is this it?

Charlie A: On page 440 you were asking about the Gator Raider. I was told it was owned by Ralph Baker who owned the Houma Dragstrip. And it was driven by Dennis Oncal. I'm trying to find more info.

Oncale possibly. I think that was the car that Shrewsbury drove for Vanke at Indy in '69 in A/MP? May have been a one race lease?

Thank you for the information. Somebody once said something about a Vanke connection but since Vanke had Cudas I couldn't figure it out.
