I had a 71 Duster in highschool. When Smokey and the Bandit came out i had to have a T/A. Now 40 years later i just aquired a 73 Dodge dart swinger 51k original miles. Fixing to go through a transformation with minor updates
My 1st car was a 72 demon 340 . same color red , white vinyl top , white interior , bucket seats , console 3 speed auto , white side stripes, hook mounted tach , and dual snorkle . Have never seen another one like it . Nice car !
72 Demon, Carter Thermoquad spreadbore carb, 3 speed on the floor, tore thru Harlingen Texas High School in my teens. Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple blaring out of my 8 track ..... and like the song says "those summers seemed to last forever, and if had the choice yeah... I'd always want to be there. those were the best days of my life".
I had one of these in light blue. It was my first car. Ice blue I think it was called. Same stripes, hood scoop, auto on the column, everything. that would have been around 1979-80. It had definitely seen hard use by the time it came into my hands and was starting to rust badly. Still, had a lot of fun in that car.
My first car was a 1972DodgeDartDemon!!!! I wish I had it now!!!! This Mopar Dodge Girl misses her Orange Demon!!! ,Our Canadian Winter s are not great for the old muscle cars!! A new Demon,I will never be able to Afford!!!!
My third car was the 72 Demon same powertrain but with floor shift and console. Jade green with black vinyl top. Never before or since seen a transmission that would take a beating like the 727.
I had a 72' Plymouth Duster, and it looked identical to the Dart, except for the hood and the front end light & grill bar. Mine was a small block, looked nice but couldn't outrun nothing. I might have been able to beat a soap box derby car, if they gave me a headstart. I love what they did to the car you did the walk-around on. Sweet! I like that they had buckets, also.
Always loved the bulb pump wiper fluid sqirter. We used to unplug the hose and run it to passenger side between hood and fender.And squirt kids on sidewalk. true
We had a 1971 Demon with a 225 slant 6 and a 3 speed automatic transmission after we traded a 60's era Ford Falcon also with a 6 cylinder engine although the Falcon had a 3 speed clutch transmission.
@DodgeMan360 I wasn't a huge fan either, but this particular car looks great. That'll be cool if you get a hold of that one too. Those 340's can be built up pretty stout.
yeah dude its nice to see something that looks exactly like it did out of the factory and no nicks in it. i bought my 1975 Dart Sport down at the Daytona turkey run last november for 12 grand, guy was going through a brutal divorce almost didnt believe the price. orange w black strips black sprayed hood, 360 auto/ a/c 7258 original miles and was stored for 8 years w/o being driven
A small block A/LA engine in a compact A-body (Dart/Duster, etc) is a "Pony Car". A big block B/RB/hemi engine in a midsize B-body (Satellite/Coronet, etc) is a "Muscle Car".
got the same demon but different color am about to repair during the summer but do you guys know how much mpg it gets and if theres any website or store where u can buy parts for it that are original

IT WAS KNEW LOCALLY AS THE 'CHILI DUSTER, FROM '93 - ' 03. WENT UP AGAINST A SS396, 455 TURBO, AND A BUILT FOR BURN OPEN HEADER ONLY 350, IN AN OPEN HEADER CONTEST BACK IN ..'95. AND ...I WON !!

Ahhh I feel sooo much cleaner now that I've come back to looking at the old dart....although I have to clean my pants now...first dodge fucked up the charger but it still kinda looks mean the challenger is good enough( could have bumped the hp up tho) and now they ruin this classics name shame on dodge
