Way cool also weren’t some of Dick’s last racers Hemi powered? Here’s a few ads for Harrell built Chevrolets that would give the Cuda a go, hope the lad w/ the ‘68 L88 Nova made it home. ![]() ![]() ~ Pete .

Harrell’s long time devotion to the Chevrolet is well embedded into his following. Personally, I have never heard different except the end results was going to Hemi power in his funny car?
Wes Jerde, an engine builder can be associated with DH, who was instrumental in helping convince him to switch to the Hemi for competitive purposes? Just wondering if this association could have any results of the ad displayed? |

Yes. He had sold it to a cousin who wrecked the car. Both his cousin and cousin's brother are deceased. We were looking for pics of the car. We have one where it's in the background of the 1st owner.
