Default Re: Original Hemi Cuda Info.......

Here are pics of Bill Vaney cuda before it was sold.

This 1968 HEMI Super Stocker was ordered new from Midtown Plymouth of Dayton, OH in mid-1967 by Bill Vanwey. Vanwey took delivery on July 22, 1968. Vawney partnered with Butch Ackman as drivers. Vanwey campaigned the car thru the 1969 season then decided to sell the car. Dayton, OH racer Billy "The Kid" Stepp purchased the car and immediately started the conversion of the car from an automatic to a manual transmission car. During the conversion Ronnie Sox purchased the car.

This is some info found on this site,

The car was sold to Paul Lance of Boonville indiana. Since then i have no idea where it ended up. The car was painted purple at the time of purchase and it was an original factory car."

Not sure where I found this quote
"Mr Lance was a good customer as he had earlier bought a 68 Cuda from them. Paul ended up trading it back to S&M."

Default Re: Original Hemi Cuda Info.......

Question for the community. I have not read through the entire 90+ page thread.

So where exactly was the BUILDING that the
1968 HURST HEMI DART and BARRACUDA cars
were actually BUILT IN located and what was it's Street Address ?


Research so far suggest the Budman Building MAY be located at
2150 E 10 Mile Rd, Warren, MI 48091 and is now a business called 'Dough & Spice Inc.'

It was called 'The BUDMAN BUILDING' by the Hurst folks.
It is 'almost' in Madison Heights, MI, but actually just to the east over the Oakland County and Macomb County Line in 'Center Line' township or district or 'city'.

Understanding is the 1968 Hurst Hemi Dart and Barracuda cars were NOT built at the Hurst Performance Research Building located at 1191 East Eleven Mile Road, Madison Heights, MI which still stands today in 2019, and it is funny, because on Google Maps Street view, the 'guy' actually drove all around that building which normally isn't done, but I have a stinkin' suspicion just why 'he' did drive all around that particular building - LOL
