The "Hemi Under Glass" was an exhibition project by Hurst that was originally featured at drag strips across the country in the 1960's and 1970"s. Hurst hired driver Bob Riggle to drive the mid-engine wheel-stander down the drag strip to the fascination of spectators everywhere. Riggle drove the Hemi Under Glass up until 1975 when he moved back to his home in Arizona.

Three different versions of the Hemi Under Glass were built, each based on the Plymouth Barracuda model year 1966-1968.

From the mid-70's through the 1980's the Hemi Under Glass was forgotten about, and the 1966 version was even destroyed in 1987. However, Bob Riggle decided to bring back the Hemi Under Glass and in 1992 began building a replica of the 1966 version. In 1995 Bob completed an authentic replica of the 1968 Hemi Under Glass and has toured the country with the car ever since, amazing crowds once again with his full-track wheel-stands.
