This site hosts pictures of my 1973 Dodge Dart Sport drag car taken from 1990 to the present day.  Shortly after the opening of Princeton Dragway, in West Virginia, Jack Necessary of Bluefield, Virginia bought it and brought it home from Rural Retreat.  It was a factory 340 engine car and even then, had been a race car much of it's life.  The name "ScatJack" is a portmanteau of Chrysler's Scat Pack muscle car marketing and his first name.  Between Jack and fellow racer Clyde, whom he sold the car, it was campaigned at Princeton throughout the 1990s and had run as quick as 7.20.

At the end of the 90s, the track closed, the car faded into obscurity, and changed owners several times.  After nearly 20 years of passively searching for it, I found it with Jack's help and bought it in 2018.  The original 340 and 727 are long gone as is the hood scoop, but the rest is still solid and intact.  It will be a long way back, but this car's best is yet to come!  Enjoy the gallery and follow the restoration on my YouTube channel.
