Well is does have 90,150 miles on the clock and the front drivers seat cover is worn out pretty good, someone drove the heck out of it at one point. It didn't see many miles after 88-89 for sure.

I'm going to try and get hold of the former owner (there is some contact information in the folder) and inquire on the cars history.

So this morning decided to do some fooling about in Photoshop to solve one problem ;-)

I found one picture on The Nest of an unmolested SSP trunk with a license plate. Knowing that a plate is 12" wide I resized the photo and laid a grid pattern over it. Presto!

Know I know the size of the Plymouth emblem and its exact location in respect to the trunk lip.

Yes. I'm told that some cars did not come with them, no rhyme or reason.

Looks like I need Plymouth emblem 3445250 which supersedes to one with three pins. I'm not about to make holes in the trunk, I wonder if the studs can be ground off without damaging the emblem.

Moving some stuff around the garage, getting ready to settle into winter mode (projects on deck to the front) for a bit and have to slide the truck in for a heater core tomorrow.

A few more cars and I'll have my very own Rapid Transit System =)

(There is a Dart and another Plymouth waiting in the wings...)

Great find Gary! I love it. I may have that Plymouth trunk emblem for you. When my '71 X is painted in the spring, I'll have to meet up with you to watch more of your old race videos of the '67 Dart with "our" old 340

I digitized a bunch of stuff, I think there is even a long play version of the car on youtube.

For those wondering, here is the car running at E-town on street tires in 1989.

Whole day of racing here-

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twqYbEfFoCA

You can see the 340 in the bay the very first minute of the video.

Fun car, its twin (minus the dents and urban camouflage) is being built even as we speak.

And something "new" from a dealership in Iowa, '71 vintage. There is a '71 Fury on the reverse side.

Did some searching about yesterday for the first and second owners, nada, nothing. No tax records, nothing on the personal searches.

I'll keep digging though, hope to hear back from the guy I purchased the car from today.
