My car back in the early 90's? - 12/31/09 04:35 PM

Someone posted old fairground pics on YB the other day and I saw these, sure makes me wonder if it's my car, even the main hoop in the cage looks the same but alot of those look similar. Heck I even have a similar front license plate on it right now. Lol

Same 3" 6pak hood, my back window is still tinted, I know it used to have the steam roller tires on it..........

I can almost garuntee that that is not my car. It sure looks like it though.

That car has a cage in it and might even be tubbed.

My car never even had so much as a roll bar ever put in it (near as I could tell) and I'm the one who had the cage and back half work done.

I would have to say its the same car, look at the side markers in both pics current and old there are no markers.

Yes, I forgot to add that, side markers are shaved.

I like it better with the 10.5 tires.

Thanks Rick, I'm not into the old school look either. I had so many cars with those darn Centerlines for so many years. Lol

Call me old school!!

I run the new wheels, but love Supertricks and centerlines.

Thanks, And I wasn't badmouthing your car or wheels. I just think that picture with the centerlines in the rear with the uncut wheelwells just looks Bada$$! Your Dart has the perfect stance then and now!

Now a Dart with cut wheelwells!

I had SS cragars on my car then the same centerline autodrags.

I do like old school as well but only on old race cars with old school paint jobs.

Bob does your car have any evidence of ever having a four speed in it?

What size are your front and rear tires? They look great.

Here's the car's I've owned with Centerlines.

I think it looks better now Bob, the wheels are B/A and I think it has a different paint color on it now.

All it needs now is a cowl hood.

This Charger made it into a couple of the magazines back in the 90's. I think it was a sb. Just a show car.

that was right after mark sold the car the first time (divorce) he bought it back with a blown engine and we ended up building a 451 with -1, way back then was one of the fastest around here, mid 5's with 1.24 to 1.26 sixty, letting off to get some races. I got all kinds of pics, try to dig them out.

There used to be a Dart around here that looked like yours although I can't be positive on the color but it was blue or plum crazy. It had the same stance and stripe but it was a four speed car if I remember correctly. This was in 1994 or 95 that I saw it last. According to the owner it was a 9 second car but it hadn't been down the track lol.

I tried to make out the license plate in the rear view pic but no luck.
