The CAT gives it away but then I would like to see it move off the line first before I make my decision to paint that on. It might just sit there and spin and you end up in someones rear view mirror!
Why? Its a show car. Having the emblem there is like driving with the hood open which every mopar guy does at a car show. Lol. But really a 72 dodge demon with a demon engine and engine parts with demon badges would be great.
I still have my 72 Demon. Looks almost like this. Hemi-Orange. Had those Cragers on it. Because those were the only mags you could get in a 4” bolt pattern. The past 2 years I have refreshed it with a nice 360, 833 tranny, and an 8 3/4 3.55 rearend. Same black decals. And I even have that same spare tire. Of course it won’t fit now. I put bigger bolt pattern wheels on it. But I got the same Crager SS mags. Good looking car. 👍
Oh my, I’m in love! What a blend of yesteryears glory days and today’s engine technology! Not to mention insane power! Original paint? Wow wow wee wow! So beautiful!
What a cool dealership High end classics is from what I'm seeing one of the best even down to the shops well maintained state and for the featured Demon it truly is special. I am very impressed with this build and it's overall look , great choice of wheels also . I can't imagine what it must feel like remembering back to my 1970 , 340 Swinger , wow twice the power of the 340 and that got me into the mid 14 s , if it had a standard trany with the mentioned Dana . Thanks Steve
MORE than twice the power, stock 70 340 only 275 but regardless its a beautiful build but straight line throttle only. I remember the Swinger, in reality most of those old cars were high 14 and 15 flat cars but with that suspension they felt fast and for the day were. A new SS Camaro would walk on a 69 396/375 but a 427 Yenko would be neck and neck in the 1/4. I always loved the Demon 340 design
The big heavy Dana was not necessary as the 8 3/4” could take just about as much abuse but without the extra weight. Before NHRA started getting more liberal with the rules the 1968 race Hemi Darts & Barracudas used to run them to save weight over the Dana 60.
I've found my dream car, complete with that Hellcat engine. The 72 Demon 340 is very under-rated so it getting a sweet upgrade like this is the perfect way to make it shine!
Oh……my……gosh! How can anything that red, still be a sleeper? Well, that 707 HP might have something to do with it! Absolute tribute to the day 2 look from back in the 70s, with modern muscle. Thank you. ~ Chuck
This is what Dodge should have done instead of calling a Challenger with a big engine a Demon. I had a new Demon 340 in 1971. It was red with the black stripe like this one. Black interior with a bench seat in the front. Had the 150 MPH speedometer, no tach though. Had no power steering, and the front brakes were drum. No carpet either, just rubber like in a truck. It was a blast to drive, wish I had never sold it. Didn't really know what I had. The engine was balanced and blueprinted from the factory.
When we get the tag, we can brag: FE5 for Bright Red exterior paint, U for USA spec vehicle, R11 for AM Music Master radio, E24 for 225 Slant Six with one barrel, aka "Leaning Tower of Power", 826 for 8/26/71 production which was a Wednesday, D34 for Torqueflite automatic transmission, G15 for tinted windshield only, TX9 for upper door panel color of black, B1X9 should be black interior trim. With the VIN we win: L for Dodge Dart/Demon series, L for low price class, 29 for two door sports hardtop, C for 225 Slant Six with one barrel, aka "LTP", 2 for 1972 model year, B for Hamtramck, MI assembly aka "Factory Zero" or Dodge Main (which opened in 1911 and closed in 1980), and the rest is the production sequence. Loon Motors was located at 117 East 1st Avenue in Mitchell, SD.
Nice car. Seems well sorted out but I'm not sure about the GM tranny. I prefer rowing gears but the GM tranny is a turn off (for a mopar). If you could find one, a Passon A-855 5spd would be my first choice but they are hard to come by these days. Otherwise nicely done.
Awesome car love it would not have the Hellcat sticker on it too LOL I wouldn't want nobody to know but yeah as long as it's not original or 340 or something I wouldn't want to mess with that but this is like a 318 or something I would take it out and put that engine in it because you can just dependably drive it everyday and be badass Street Machine nice
You make fun of the 8 3/4” rear end but it’s so strong that they are coveted by some super comp dragster’s because it’s about as strong as the 9” Ford with less weight, they have a similar construction.
Yes, but some are stronger than others. The weakest being the 741 case it had a small pinon diameter. Next you had the 742 case it had a bigger diameter then the 741 case, it also was a straight pinon. Next you had the 489 case. This was the biggest pinon they had. It was a tapered pinon.
@@johnr.4853 I had the 489 case with a sure grip with 3:91 gears in a 1970 4 speed Duster that had a nowhere near stock engine for those days and it saw a few thousand power shifts using a short throw V-gate shifter and I never had any problems with that rear end, not even with the spider gears. So if someone wants to put aftermarket axles and a spool in one of them , I don’t think that they could easily break it. Even some of the 68 race Hemi Darts & Barracuda’s switched to them to save weight.
In '72 Dart colors you could get V2 Hemi Orange but this l'il devil got the more vibrant E5 F*k You Red. It literally made the car go faster. Can always tell '72s no matter A Body, B Body or E Body...side markers were no longer flush. 👀
2:40 All of those modern electronics to support that modern engine and it still has that dreaded resistor on the firewall? If and when the trunk gasket failed, and if water dripped on that thing the car wouldn't start. Ferry famous problem, and what people would do is put rubber washers behind it to offset it from the firewall.
I'll work there if I can get this as payment lol Should have had more of the car running as I think no one would be interested in such a plain Jane car lol
Absolutely love resto mods!!!! Great way to keep these classics alive.
Awesome…… but I’d have left the hell cat decals off
That would make it a true sleeper
Same here, I agree. I bet that Bad Boy moves too!!!

Dodge NEEDS to make this!!! Omfg!! Finally a cool restomod!!!
I miss my 71 demon it was canary yellow with black racing stripes I called it the big block killer 💯 Mopars 🔥 sweet ride 👍
I miss my Dusters, I had two a 1971 and a 1972.
My first car I ever bought was a 71 green with a white vinyl top

Who ever built this 72 Demon understood the Assignment and gave the world something beautiful and fast as fuck
I love the cat text, the hellcat logos kinda ruins the 'sleeper' aspect to the build, less is more 😁
This is the kind of build I have wanted to see.
Oh my, I’m in love!
What a blend of yesteryears glory days and today’s engine technology!
Not to mention insane power! Original paint?
Wow wow wee wow!
So beautiful!
My buddy had a -72 Duster while I had my -68 Dart. There is nothing like a classic A-body MoPar. Period.

The 8.75” differentials allowed for easy gear changes just like the ford 9”
When I met my now wife, her brother had this exact demon ! Red, 340, 4 speed, 513 rear end ! Dam that thing was fun ! Days gone by ! 😔
what happened to it?
I've found my dream car, complete with that Hellcat engine. The 72 Demon 340 is very under-rated so it getting a sweet upgrade like this is the perfect way to make it shine!
Wow amazing craftsmanship, vision, and talent to piece this beautiful ride together.
Another beautiful vintage Mopar DESTROYED
it was a 6cyl..
what a beauty
Chrysler needs to make a 2 door charger
I THOUGHT CHARGERS WERE ALL 2 DOOR...🤷♂️
They really need to make that front fender scoop functional to let the engine breathe better that would be nice .
Oh……my……gosh! How can anything that red, still be a sleeper? Well, that 707 HP might have something to do with it! Absolute tribute to the day 2 look from back in the 70s, with modern muscle. Thank you. ~ Chuck
SWEEEEEET 👍
Mo -Power 🤘
Too cool man!!!!!!!!!!!!
The trunk latch shows painted which i believe would not have been by the factory. Nice car btw. Thanks for showing it
Had a 71 dodge demon had a 340 4speed about all i could handle lime green with black stripes
I CAN ONLY DREAM OF DRIVING THAT MASTERPIECE...WOW...SUH WEET!!!!
Absolutely beautiful 🤩
Please let me win the lottery 🙏
Right after me! Lol
Right! I wanna swapped a 72 demon with a 170 my dream car

I like that a whole lot better than the modern-day Dodges
A Classic my buddy had 340 mid high 13s
Hope they stiffened up the frame. A lot.
Work of art what a beauty 💪
Absolutely stunning
Frickin Beautiful
Love the car! But l would upgrade those brakes ASAP! NO way you're going to be able to stop that car on 70s disc's and drums!
Looks like they put Wilwoods in the front
Mom’s Gold Duster was cool, it got whacked in a parking lot when I was just a kid.
So awesome
Nice build 💪💪💪👏👏👏👏
Big bolt wheels fit if you use 68 mustang rotors and drill the axles and drums.

Ummm...I think it's "leaning tower of power".🙂
@@gteefxr3094 Yup just fixed it.
Lower that bad boy and put some original rallies on it with bands and baby centers. KICKASS!!!!
😆
Omg 😮😳😵💫 that’s incredible ❤
Had a AMD tail light panel installed and the car was repainted except for the under side of the deck lid.
The real demon💯u just can't beat it.
I bought one new in 72 340 4 speed , 3600 bucks brand new . Wish I hadn’t been so crazy back then and kept it .
Wowza! 👍🏼
Omg that sound!!!!!
Beautiful 🤩
A car so cool, they have to put a modern badge on it~!
Gorgeous catc
Badass!
When you hear that Thang. Rumble and Then Whine like a Bad Ass 3 year old. You know you dealing with that Big Cat No scats allowed.
Awesome I'd have done the hellcat wheel tire set up for handling and put Hellcat fender badges instead of those fake decals
Total Bad Ass
707 hp is a lot more than double a 340’s. In 1972, the 340 was rated at 240 horsepower, so it’s right at 3 times.
This is what the new one should have looked like.
The challenger is cool This is a demon.
hi great ep every demon should have a 392 hemi or the hellcat engine.
weather its a 71 or 72.
Yes yes yes
Amazing!
Not sure the a/b body rear end that’s wider that needs to go in so the back of the car will look right...
The REAL Dodge Demon!
This feels proper. aside from the hellcat logos. you gotta keep what's old, old.
Very nice indeed
As American as it gets! Beautiful! Makes my soul cry how they are killing off our V8’s and shoving EV’s down our throats……
G.M. parts in a Mopar? I guess the 727 would get shredded from the horsey from the Demon engine.
Smoke the dang tires!!
Tasteful semi-mod.
Nice car. Seems well sorted out but I'm not sure about the GM tranny. I prefer rowing gears but the GM tranny is a turn off (for a mopar). If you could find one, a Passon A-855 5spd would be my first choice but they are hard to come by these days. Otherwise nicely done.
Didn't know that a Demon came with a slant 6?
Awesome car love it would not have the Hellcat sticker on it too LOL I wouldn't want nobody to know but yeah as long as it's not original or 340 or something I wouldn't want to mess with that but this is like a 318 or something I would take it out and put that engine in it because you can just dependably drive it everyday and be badass Street Machine nice
you still have this car
Trunk panel gap on drivers side is awful. Maybe from the torque?
Did u say slant six? Would a real demon come with that?
Greatness
They made demon's with a slant 6 ? I never heard that, I thought they were all 340's ?
Oh, ok. I would've probably done something like that with it also, if it was originally only a 6cyl. car.
Can I have that car? Lol jokes aside, I love it.
It’s cool but we used to get a Dodge Daemon 340 as a loaner car in New Bedford in the early 80’s!
why?
Should've done a Demon swap.
I’m guessing this it long gone by now
My late brother had a 71 340 4bbl 3speed..he beat everyone including a vett!!!

@@frankjohnson6342 I'm not knocking the 8 3/4 rear at all. I like them myself , I never had any problems even with a 741 case with a suregrip.👍
The stance or rake in that car is all wrong it needs to be fixed
For YOU it’s wrong. Probably ‘cause it costs money you don’t have.
@@RedEye19 yes you win I’m very poor and can’t afford it . But the rake is still wrong for a 72 demon
Nice job!looks stock😜doesn’t sound stock😂
They should have used the 8-speed transmission.
What? That's it? At least spin the tires a bit.
Bro, you’re not gonna turn it on and drive it?
How much HP does it have? I don't think he mentioned it lol.
707 hp
Would have been nice to see video of it running inside the car and down the street disappointing

Nice , but i'm thinking with any traction control the Hellcats usually have that car would kill someone quick
Hemi Orange Steve! Come on man!😂
تاريخ صنع السياره وعمرها مجرد رقم انها ماتزال قويه وفخمه
Did Demon's back then come with a slant-six?? I thought they were all 340's?
Slant six, 318 and 340 were all available. From base grocery getter to the 340 package. A Sizzler package was all the looks with a 225/6 or 318.
I'll work there if I can get this as payment lol
Should have had more of the car running as I think no one would be interested in such a plain Jane car lol
I bet this thing is a real sleeper.
Sorry, it needs a cage.
$75,000.00 per their website. I'll take two.
Wait, how many horses did you say Steve ?
How about letting us know the asking price of these beauties.
