Sounds more to me like Dan Faketor.

 

hmm...a grainy video of the concept idling through a car show lot? well, we did ask for video or pictures..not good evidence. either way, if it happened, good for you. cvertainly you couldnt have thought that you could just come in here making those claims without any sort of substantial proof, and everyone would believe you? this isnt your other site...this site isnt packed full of naive babyboomers who are happy to finally have something other than a minivan...


pictures of some of my vehicles.

my 1971 demon the day that i bought it...the car has not gone to paint yet, but the engine went in this past weekend.

Off topic. ^^^1badmiranda I remember reading that article and seeing your miranda. I'm gald to see you got car in the magazine.
Also what motor are you putting in the demon? Is it going to be a drag car?

All I'll say is, if that is you in the new challenger good for you! If it isn't you, which we'll never know, then why would even make a story like that.

 

the motor going into the demon, for now, is a fairly stock 340 build. stock heads (188/160) with a very mild port match to an LD340 intake. 509 cam, hooker headers, BG 750. mopar electronic ignition for now, clutch fan, stock water pump. 2500 stall 727 built by bob george racing, with a manual valve body. our goal was to get the car on the street, spending as little as possible. its a low compression engine, similar to that in the mirada, but the mirada has a slightly better intake, bigger cam, better carb, better port on the heads. the engine, like the mirada, is low compression..around 9 to 1. the mirada ran 12.40s with a track weight of 3700lbs, on 87 octane with a 4.56 gear and 3500 stall...

the demon is a cruiser, and i want to see what someone can get a car onto the road for, including the paint. NOT including the paint, i have less in the demon than i have in the laser... im sure that the demon will get a few passes down the quarter mile once its done, to see what it runs, but its not going to see the huge amount of track time that the mirada has (around 1200 runs in 13 years)... i do, however, want it to be at least in the 12s, and once we have it on the street, after time, it may get the drivetrain from the mirada, or possibly some new heads//

for now, it is just a cruiser, and time will tell what will come of it in the future...[8D]

 

This may not be your intention, but that setup has "bottle ready" written all over it.

 

yeah...i hear alot of that, and i have a nitrous setup at my disposal...but honestly, i dont want to risk tearing up my 340 blocks...

 

Nice cars!!! That brings back memories of my 72 Duster 340 4 speed car. Same color with Hemi orange and blacked out hood and black debadged 340 stripes. That was my first car and man do I dream about the times I spent cruising in that beast. Keep us updated on the Demon and some more pictures would be great.

 

i have an A833 trans, but we are going with a built autotrans due to my past knee issues.

 

WOW
How come you did not take a pic to remeber your journey with ? I know I would have at least one of me and the car.
Thanks for the story, we all get to dream.

 

as many times that i've set the challenger up at shows, i have never gotten a pic of me in the car. guess, i never have the camera handy when i'm in, or that i'm driving and you guys what me to "light'em up". have to drive it carefull with the show wheels anyways.
