Dude! Dodge Demons are cool and far from oddball but still unique and when it looks like that mocked up, who cares what it is! It looks bitchin' and people here are so positive, you'll just get support.

We're all just car guys so as long as it isn't a Donk or a stock Civic with an ugly bodykit glued on, you're among like minded folks.

Let's see more of the Demon and the 510s and that truck sounds like a budget Japanese version of Marty's Syborg so let's see it too!

I haven't even posted my introduction yet! I'm amazed by the talent on this site, the overwhelming amount of information for my project, and the vendors that continue to support their service and parts after hours.

I was lucky enough to pick up a LM Chicane front subframe from Tyler during the summer, and since then have ordered Front and Rear Touring Classic C5 brakes, and a Vintage Air Gen IV system.
LS conversion motor mounts and a complete T56 swap kit are on the shopping list for the first quarter next year.

To answer your questions Tyler:

I have found an answer for almost all of my questions on this site, and others like it.

If I need clarification on a subject, or help making a buying decision, the vendors are just a phone call or email away. fortunately for the vendors, this site does what's intended and facilitates people making their dream-cars come true.

I own a business that is open 365 days a year, 13 hours a day, I barely have time for my own project!
However, with that being said, I've found that my ten year or older automotive/hot rod/racing technology experience may not provide the most relevant answer. I'd rather sideline myself to allow someone more focused or employed in the trade to come to the front with the most modern approach or remedy.

After all, who hasn't been burned by poor advice in the past?

I come here daily, I love all the pro-tourers on the site. We dont see many pro-tourers in Australia.

I probably don't post as my current project is not a pro-tourer. It's a 1971 Ford Falcon that is probably best described as a mild restomod. It has a mild 351 cleveland, T5 and disc brake 9 inch.

However, I've already got the body for my future pro-tourer project. Its a 1976 Ford Falcon coupe. Plans for this include 5.4 mod motor, T56, Mustang 2 style front suspension and AU XR6 IRS rear end (simmilar to 03 Cobra-R IRS).

I'm a high school metalwork and mechanical workshop teacher, and the body is at my work as sort of a class project. We are cutting rust out and welding in new panels.

This is how it looked when I got it. (Sorry about the big pictures, I dont know how to scale them down.)





And here's a picture of a simmilar Falcon coupe in good condition
