Pampered and cared for, for a long time. Kick myself for letting it get away. This Hemi example is top-shelf material, for sure!!! Thanks for sharing.

    What a great car. My father had a Dodge dealership in 1968. I was 18 years old and my father and I sat down with our dealer representative and started the process to special order a fast car. The representative tried to get me to order a Hemi Dart but after he got done with all the paper work restrictions, I ordered a very special, I believe a 1 off car that I could legal drive on the street. This brings back many memories. Thanks

      A guy I knew years ago had a 68 GTX with a built 413 Street Wedge. The factory 440 blew up long before and he bought the car out of a farmer's field for $50 with no engine or transmission and dropped in the 413 and a 727 automatic transmission. That car was really really fast. He put a hotter cam in it with headers and had it tuned really well. Went for some rides from hell in that car lol. He actually still owns it to this day but it's been off the road for a while

    A few Darts in my area back in '69. Great cars. Dad had a '69 but it was a 6 cyl. A good buddy had a 440 6 pack in his Dart, we used to ride about in that a lot. Fun car. We saw one of them Hemi Darts driving down Davie St in Van one night. Awesome car. Only got him to tap the gas with our prodding, lol...

    Nice believe it or not I live in a small town in Central Florida Ocala there was to hemi Cuda‘s that were the sister cars in the dart. One was formally owned by Sox and Martin and the other one was formally owned by Judy Lilly. I believe and I might be wrong but I think on the post where the door hinges was a tag that said this car is not intended for highway use

    One of the most "wicked" drag cars ever built. Tho a Pontiac fan, I would gladly own one of these cars. But I don't care one bit, about the benefits of a torqueflight, make mine an 833 any day. The most fun you can have, with your cloths on. Thanks for posting. :)

    I'm a mopar nut ever since I was a kid since most of my Family worked at Chrysler and drove them and my dad and uncle's street and strip raced them but the 1968 Dodge Super Stock Dart was and still is bad ass the new race ready Dodge Demon is kind of a copy of what Chrysler did in 68 but back in 1968 the dart came with no warranty where today's demon comes with one.

    My dad bought a 1969 slant six automatic transmission Plymouth Valiant in the mid 1970s as our second family car. That's the same basic car as 1968 Dodge Dart. Watching a Hemi Dart hookup and go straight I'm always in disbelieve its possible it has any relationship with that 1969 Valiant!

    How about the 69 hemi a body barracuda that was setup the same way as that 68 dart. Both are a bodies back in the late 60s. I believe 1000 sticks and 1000 autos were made in 69 of the barricudas. That may count for the 68 darts too. I don't recall. 10.5 sec back then made them the quickest production cars until the demon. Acid dipped doors Pizza cutters in front. Awesome ride. 52 years old. A lot of people forgot about these monsters or just didn't know. I believe a special class was made for them in racing. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks for this video. It was great!

    Sweetest of sweet cars. My second car was a 73 dart slant six. Super dependable. I sold it but about a year later got a 71scamp. Drove it one summer then parked it. I still have it but not quite the machine this is though I treasure it a ton.
