      1971 Dodge Demon Street/Touring

      In the MOPAR world, I would be considered an outcast. I don't really care about the strip, ETs, or big cubes. I despise restorations and numbers-matching.

      Since getting my '71 Demon in February, I have battled to just keep it on the road, let alone make sure it's original, fast, or pretty. Thirty-seven years of use and abuse to the slant six and TF904 have left it a slug with many issues; issues that I've been fixing with my small paychecks while I was in college.

      Well, I graduated in June, and finally have a real paycheck coming in. Now, I can finally sit down and focus on my project: a real street machine. Something that can drive eight hours on end with no issues. Something that turns, handles, stops, and drives well. An all-around, balanced muscle car. And that's where all of my purchases and ideas have been heading since I purchased it. So here's what's been done:

      The day I bought it:





      I started with a non-op speedometer, so I had to replace it. In came the aftermarket:

      Autometer Designer Black gauges - Autometer senders - Detroit Electric LEDs



      Redline Gaugeworks Dash Panel



      Finished product - Back



      Finished Product - Front





      (blue light is high-beam indicator)



      Then my brakes failed....while I was driving it. So a call to Magnumforce Race Car Fabrications took care of that:

      Magnumforce tubular UCAs - Magnumforce disc brake spindles - Wilwood HD Brake Kit - Wilwood brake accessories
