1969 Race Dart w/ 426 Hemi- garaged for 45+ years

thought you would like that. This year my 3 personal Hemi engines, 1 got refreshed and 2 rebuilt. I've been helping a local builder in his shop do 3 or 4 just this year. My history of hemi engines goes back to The Rod Shop more than 50 years ago and local super/stock racers who ran SS/B and SS/D. My '68 roadrunner was completely built by TRS in 1970 to run A/S which it did and punished a lot of other cars. 100 or so class wins. I've ran one of my std. bore 426 Hemis in ex-Mike Fons Rod Shop Pro/Stock and it ran faster than the car did originally! So I've been around.

I'm lovin. it...... and you are likely right in my back yard (I live in Bowling Green, OH) too. Love to meet the guys that have been there / done that....and ain't finished yet.

Side bar..... (our/ my buddy) Joe Pappas crew chiefed for Fons (71-72) and this Rod Shop Challenger before he worked for Don Carlton in 1973 on The Mopar Missile team. It was a natural because Fons was married (at the time) to Joes sister.
