I bought a car and had 40 inquiries. Can I dispute them to help my score

Hi Bo, thanks for publishing your tips online. I bought two cars in 2006 and had 67 inquiries ( hard ) made through the 2 dealers I bought from. My score lowered by 40 points as a result of it. Can I dispute the amount of inquiries on my report ? I am getting ready to buy a house and my score will increase the interest rate on a mortgage.
Thanks,

You can but i doubt it will work. After all they were real hits from a car dealer. I might be angry with the car dealer. Your credit must have been borderline because most dealers will not work that hard to get financing unless there is a problem.
