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.

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??

But Mary Anns car has never been positively located today yet as far as I know

Hey Charlie
Absolutely nothing!!!! Still searching daily for photos of it mostly on facebook since lots of people post their pics they have just found in a drawer or something. Even looking in the background of staging lanes and pits etc. Your right. Its like it just isnt out there after 1968 for whatever reason. Prolly got parked due to mechanical destruction or the owner himself just made it invisable from a ugly divorce or he passed or???????? The search continues

Speaking of the Fink Dart. Does anybody have a copy of the picture of it on the back bumper, that was in National Dragster? I had one hanging up in my shop, and it has got so old, it basically disintegrated! I'd like to find a copy to put back up.
Thanks Dan

I have often wondered about this one. In the stripped down picture of your car it had a silver paint job if I remember correctly. And the dent in front of the rear bumper may have left a spot you might be able to still see. Did we ever identify this one? There was another picture of it parked next to a motel somewhere in this thread.

And if you look at where the dark blue is on the sides and the roof, it matches where the paint is removed from the car being stripped. Not to mention the now famous quarter panel repair.
And, if you look close enough, you can see a double exposed picture of the r/r wheel opening / quarter panel back to the bumper.

Both picts appear to have same front tire/rim combo too

Different cars. The Fink car history is known, Foss car has not been positively ID'ed yet as Daryl stated.
