Default Re: Fastest Musclecar?

I would say the 68 Hemi Dart/Cuda's as well, but the point of a factory built is in question as noted before.I don't believe it was a production car or sold as such.Note the disclaimer put on all cars produced.I don't recall if the body's/mods were ever DOT aproved in 68.Only NHRA sanctioned/approved. Hurst is a lot like Motion for a comparison sake.Big difference is the Mopars were sold thru or by Chrysler not Hurst.Kind of like Demmer Eng. and the Olds.Converted by Demmer,returned to Olds and sold thru Olds.I feel they were a type of factory assy. subcontracted by GM or Mopar.I feel the gray area in the Mopar camp is if they were ever sold to be street legal and licensed as such in 68.In my opinion they were the fastest,baddest cars in A/S (?) then and now.......Oh yeah,I'll still take a boat load of 454 Vegas....that's really insane.

Ps. I did build a 440 Mopar powered 78 Monza..those cars Rock and Roll with any Big Block. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/cool.gif[/img]
