Notes: Blown fuel, rear-engine exhibition racer. Ex-Dick Branstner/Roger Lindamood-campaigned 1965 "Dart Charger." Garlits originally painted this car white with polka dots and called it the "Polka Dart." Promoters insisted it carry his name and be black, so it was painted that way. Garlits yanked the Dart's original TorqueFlite trans, replaced it with a direct drive unit and moved the entire mill rearward another 13 inches. This car was destroyed in a crash at Detroit in 1966. Garlits replaced this car with the "Don Garlits Dart 2," a slingshot rail with a Dart roadster shell.
