1968 Super Stock Barracuda and Darts

Dean Mink at Indy.

 

Vern Hill. Beautiful car, show quality racer.

 

Owner/builder had stock in a zip tie company.

 

I really like these "as delivered" restorations. The owners belong to a fraternity of hard-core Race Hemi Mopar freaks, but they are comfortable having something that almost know one knows anything about. Park any of those primered A-bodies at most any public place, and I doubt anyone would think they're anything but some trailer trash gear head's beater.

 

Agreed, always cool to see them in the as delivered style. Glad a few have been correctly restored.

 

I was working a summer job at a paper recycling factory in '81 and found the Cars magazine with the Castaldo Dart in it from '68. It's the magazine that also showed the cars still in primer.

Before that I had no idea a Dart could have been had with a Hemi in it.

I still have the magazine

Most people don’t know that Grotheer also did Chrysler Clinics.
