PRO STOCK Dodge Demon built by Sox & Martin is FOUND & RESTORED 

This is the kinda stuff we need to keep in the right hands so the next generation can enjoy and see how it was so done back in the day

4:40 - Seeing the "Keystone" mags brought back some old memories. I used to to work for the company that made them in Richmond BC Canada. It was called EBCO and myself and a high-school friend, Paul Diotte (RIP), worked the chrome line. I can still remember walking the slippery 1X6 wooden boards between the caustic soda tanks fishing out items that had fallen in. Thank God I never went for a swim :)

Great story, we had John Livingston as our Grand Marshal at the Southeast Gasser event in Knoxville Tennessee a few years ago. ~Quain Stott~

Sox & Martin car...knew it would be a 4 speed like Ronnie Sox would drive. That's a nice dose of MOPAR!!! Thank-you!

So cool , i had a 71 demon 340 4 speed straight out of high school in 1982👍 Mopar or no car

I love the classic mopars of the late 60s and early 70s. Can't wait to get my 69 road runner back to its street fighting looks it had back in the 70s. 👍👍😎✌✌

I had a '71 Dodge Demon, 383 4 speed dual quad 750 dual feed. That car was fast 😳!

Now that is a badass car. Takes me back. This is one of those cars you found In a Revelle Model box with all the stickers.

What a awesome story!!! Remember that car from back in the day. Just great Love seeing it again!!! Thanks again for letting us see the Video. 😎✌️💯

I was 18 at the time of the Hemi dominated Pro Stock classes. Watching this video makes this 67 year old teenager very happy. Thank you !!

Awesome story. Love it. I have one story I have to tell it one day on paper. I remember seeing this car. Run back in the day. Awesome color with the white & seafoam lime green. Beautiful car. Thank you for the great work putting this story together. We need more of this . Get these kids off the street drugs & video games and using their minds. God bless y'all. Thank you.

Outstanding story. Love to see these old cars especially this one come back to life. Very impressive.

Kudos to your team bringing back the early years of drag racing.

Love your channel, especially vintage drag cars like this one

Love nostalgia pro stock, and super stock and fuel coupes!!!

Awesome Mopar.. With a bunch of history...thanks for sharing. Gary

great story, for a nice car, love those Hemis

Thanks for bringing this story to us, brings back many memories, I remember a guy here in Pontiac Michigan had a 70-71 Demon that was built by Ramchargers, this was back when we would block traffic on I-75, run a race, then let traffic resume, we would trailer the cars to the weigh scales, unload, race, truck & trailer follow the car, load back up, get the heck out of there, this was usually done in the middle of the night...those were the days...the late 1970's early 80's were my heyday, still heavy into it now, we have so much $$$$ in our 65 mustang we could have bought a decent house...but there is other addictions that are definitely more harmful...keep these awesome video's coming

Yessir awesome story, great car ! The history and nostalgia are what keeps old race cars alive ! And a Sox&Martin car ,very cool ! Keep up the great work telling the stories and keeping history alive !!

I actually saw this car race in 71 at a east Tenn track. If memory serves me correctly Sox and Martin were there also. Great video. Thanks for the memories.

You Tennessee boys do it right. Thanks for a heart warming story about love and respect by a grandson. I am a life long Mopar fan who enjoyed watching your video

Thanks for doing a video on some Mopar gems.

Really neat car, and wonderful story. Thanks for bringing us the Demon !

Nothing sounds like a Hemi, under hard acceleration!!!

Thank you so much, "little pieces of history", awesome video

Wow - what a great car and a great story. Super job telling its story! Thanks for sharing.

God I love what you do. Thank you so much for all your efforts to bring this back to life fo all of us! Have a great new year. And I will keep watching the channel

Thank you for bringing this story to my attention. I live in Tennessee now (since 2000)and have never heard of this car before. It’s awesome that the grandson was able to find and restore it. I especially like the original door skin showing some of the history of the car’s different names.

It's one of those cars that you can feel it before you can hear it, and you can hear it before you see it. Awesome!

Hey good job with all the videos and great job bring them back the history of these cars my dad used to race on the dirt tracks back in the day I was really young when you got rid of the car I don't know much history about it but I'll get a picture and show you on here but keep up the good work bringing back the history of race cars and stock cars and whatnot appreciate you bringing all this back and showing the history and all these cars

Super cool, really enjoyed the vid!!!! 👍👍👍👍

Last pass almost brought tears to my eyes. Always been a hemi guy. Jus music. Keep that car in the family

Badass car!👍

Thanks for the history of this car,for me half of any car is the story. Thanks for sharing. And by the way....who in the heck has a 426 hemi in a crate....the story of that is amazing.

Oh my that was so cool to see my senior year in high school I had a 1971 Dodge Demon Sizzler it was awesome these new cars they may be quicker and faster but they don't have the heart of the 60s and 70s muscle cars

This is an awesome history story. Thanks for what you do.

Nice video. Thank you for posting.

You bring back so many memories, Thank you, Have a great New Year. Ron

So far I'm loving all of your video's!

A great car and a great story - thanks for sharing!

Great content everytime !

Great content and research my friend! Love the black and white of the double cab roll back and car!

Thanks for posting this video. To see a Sox and Martin Pro Stock car brought back from oblivion was a "Wow" moment for car guys/girls. I never thought the Motown Missile was alive and well. Pro Stock cars were always fun to watch. Thanks again!

What a great story. The grandson not only finding it, But having the means to restore it too 👍 Seeing the car brought back a ton of memories as I'm pretty sure that I have seen it in Florida in the 80s-90s.... Great content HRH !!!

Great story, a real piece of drag racing history.

I raced both a 71 Demon 340 and 71 Duster 340 in Super Stock in the 70's! Those were great days! Watching the Pro Stock cars back then was fantastic! Mopars ruled!

Friends and I built a similar duster in high school because I live where this car came from,kingston and harriman tn and knew about it from people at the tracks.Sadly we didn't have a hemi for ours,we ran a 383,built by us,but we never raced it.My buddy races it now and does well with it.brought back a lot of old high school memories,thanks for making this video.

Gotta love the stance on the thing! It’s just right and evil looking!

Love it. Thanks.

very cool a friend of mine own's the original Shirley and HL Shahan Drag On Lady 68 Dodge Dart factory Hemi Race Car and every time i am around it i get goose bumps knowing the history of the car

Another GREAT story! Thank you for sharing it with us. Keep them coming!

What a great story, great car, great history. Theres something about these old drag cars that take your imagination to the moon. Ex Sox & Martin drag car! Incredible. Thanks for this story, I love it. 👍

I remember "Sox & Martin". I am completely impressed with this posting. Hoo-Ray, so good.

So glad I found this channel.

Great car, with great history. Glad someone in the family was able to purchase, and restore this car. Love the Keystone Klassic rims!!! I had them on my Nova back in the day.

Awesome story & awesome car! I love the history of cars like this. Thank you for the awesome content. You understand the story of the cars is as important as the car itself!

Love these old drag cars, hoping I can get my ex- Stock Eliminator Firebird back to its former glory soon.

Man at the begining of the video hearing that mopar sing as he runs her thru the gears is awesome......can only imagine the sound from the driver seat.....the sound of angels........there was also a dodge car pulling truck in the 80s named Tennessee thunder also

this, to me, is what I grew up dreaming about. s/s & p/s dusters, novas, Camaros, darts, these were the more common, less expensive bodies, cars that I could afford to buy, and build, as a kid, and it was much closer to home for me. early '70s eliminators, is where my heart is. these are the ones we need to take care of, everyone, don't let these late '60s early 70s super stocks & pro stocks get forgotten about. '80s, '90s, well, it just wasn't like the early '70s super stocks. it's not that they weren't cool, but this was the era that got me into drag cars & hot rods, as a child. I saw this, and I instantly had to see this video, I mean, this is the look I wanted to drive to high school in, everyday. this is the look that got me into hot Rodding. it wasn't floppers, although cool, it wasn't pro Street, which was just being born, at the time I was deep into this. this was it. right here. door slammers. sorry that I had to write a book here, but I hope you enjoyed your holiday, and I wanted to thank you, for all the cool videos you allow me to watch, on this crappy ass internet. 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

Beautiful! My first “cool” car was a 71 Demon 340 4 speed 4.10 geared yellow/black striped gem. Ran it into the ground but had a blast doin it. Wish I had it back. 💔

Another good story, love it keep them coming!!!

Union hill,the valley I watched this old car match race many times great story great job

Great car and story. Thumbs Up !

Back when race cars were REAL cars. Unlike today where its all fiberglass. Cool history! Thanks for sharing!😎

Wicked old school drag racer ! Doesn't get any better than that ✌😎

That car is a thing of beauty- nice to see it, and the history behind it being saved

I've had 7 dusters until 2001, and I miss my last one especially.

Absolutely loved this one 👍👍

Absolutely stunning

U R right.... don't get much better than this

I like the old-school muscle cars....😎💪

Wonderful story

Great video and story, thank you!

What Kind of History ,,,, it Only raced for one year !!!!Never Hurd of it !!!!!!!!

What a great story and so cool she was found, restored and isnt just a show piece. Trailer is very cool too. Truly enjoy you finding and sharing this kind of thing.

I really enjoyed the history lesson and all the pics of the car, the stance on the car brings back memories of L-60s and air shocks. Thanks for all you do putting these videos together.

I saw this car run in a match race at English mountain dragway when I was a kid and also when the eppersons had it in the 80's as a bracket car at Knoxville dragway.

I’m just happy this car is a stick shift. Can’t ever go wrong with a car like that

One of if not my favorite car. As a kid that grew up around drag racing. These cars were dust collectors in garages when I was a kid. I’ve sat in some serious cars and pretended to bang gears down the imaginary quarter mile. I’m modeling my own 71 demon after this car. My favorite cars are from the 70-72 prostockers

Wow a what a rare machine HEMI is just raw performance !!

Wow. What a great story. So glad it was found and rescued.

I saw these racecars back in the day . We match raced Don Carlton who drove the Melrose missile originally . The Tennessee thunder car I saw many times . Melrose missile could run the nines on a bad track . Remember in those days we use Rosson . We had a Camaro that was a ten 0 car it was sponsored by lowe Chevrolet out of Maryland . We went to southern Virginia right of the board of Tennessee to a racetrack that literally was in the middle of nowhere . We had to wait for them to chase the cows off . Before we could race . Surprisingly we drew about 3000or 4000 people . It was going to be two out of three . We won the first Don won the second . Then we broke driveshaft . Couldn't make the final . It was one long ride home . Our tow vehicle was a converted Coca-Cola truck . With a 330 Ford Motor . Slow as hell and doubt if it got 9 miles to the gallon . Keep up the good work .

Hey Tommy, Don't Allow yourself to be around TOO MUCH of this cool old Mopar stuff... These brief encounters could become life changing events for you! Enjoyed this newest video of yours MUCH! Thanks again, Frank Parks at Mopar Restos. AKA the Hot Rod Hoarder#33.

Brilliant, love it, they are still out there....love the story. 😎😎

Thank you for a piece of Hot Rod history ! Take care , stay safe and healthy with whatever you maybe doing next ! Doing well here in Kansas .

Well done, sir. Thanks for documenting the process of this cars' resurrection and sharing! -Ed on the Ridge

Awesome story

Damn the intro was awesome that car sounds sick

Awesome story!!! Thank you for bring it to us! Keep the videos coming!

Cool mope. .tenn thunder. My friend had a 340 dust in h s 75. Awesum

I believe that was ol' Herb Mc Candless up there grinnin'. I met him in 2005 at Rockingham along with Ronnie Sox before he died. Both were outstanding gentlemen. I have an autographed picture with Ronnie Sox that I cherish. He raced his old " bacarruda" against" I think his name was Bob Reed?in a match race. I think Reed actually owned both cars then. Ronnie terminally ill and still worked that 4 speed like in his prime and won the race as I recall. Thats a great story about grandson getting grand dads car.

Thank again 😎

That is awesome, great video and research

Amazing story, I am in love with that car wow what a piece of racing history thanks for sharing this with us! First time caller glad I found your channel. Happy New year!
