Many confuse the 1969 Dart Swinger 340 {Cragar Giveway Car} which was
Promoted in Car Craft Magazine in April 1969, with the 1968 Dart GTS 340
that Bill Shrewsberry ran in E/Stock in 1968 {below}.

Bill Shrewsberry ran the Los Angeles/Orange County Dodge Dealers car in
early-1968 on the West Coast in NHRA Division 7.
