Yep I do believe Serge is correct.

My good friend Hemi Ted, had said '68 Dart which was super lightweight for its time.
It was a 426 Hemi, which of course did not stay stock for long!
Power to weight ratio was impressive although I don't recall the stats.

Hemi Ted owned one, so I saw it, rode it in it, bet with it.
We used to pay for gas by placing an unsuspecting goon in the passenger seat, asked him/her to place a $20 spot on the dash.  We would place our $20 on top.

Told the passenger if they could grab the $40 at the moment the clutch flies, they could keep the cash.. baawwahahahah!

To this day, nobody won that bet.. We'd all be pinned to the seat backs watching the front end climb for the sky. We bought a lot of Sunoco 260 with that cash.

Hey what the hell does this have to do about S Cars anyway??

Paul,
Of course I saw it, but I thought it was the standard 426.
