So I am kinda in between on my street car. It has a roll bar and is legal to 10.0, but I want to cage it cause it runs 9's, but my daughter just passed, and expenses are adding up.

I found a cheppy with everything I like, cause I never find any Mopars done the way I like unless they are $150k...

Can anyone get me this guys contact info or give him mine? I do not have FB....I had my GF PM him and no reply.

I like this car, and it would work for me wanting to do Drag Week.

uncertified cage might be an issue.

1st off, my condolences on your daughter's passing.

The car looks pretty good, seems to have been sitting a while (cobwebs), and the seller may not know much about it.
If your GF hit the "still available ?" button, a lot of folks disregard those responses - I've learned they're more like phishing than actual buyers.
Probably several Thomas Johnsons in that city.

I saw that, but for around $250 you can usually get a chassis guy to look at it....

Appreciate it. I tried to contact the seller, but no reply. I also looked on other sites with no luck.

Was thinking maybe it is sold and nobody cancelled the ad or marked it sold?

The FB page it's on the guy claims to be selling it for a friend of his and the ad was posted 31 weeks ago. shruggy


Scrolling thru the FB page of the seller, it looks like he has a Demon. No info on it, just tidbits of getting it ready. Maybe someone has seen it in the Roanoke, VA area?

Good luck and sorry about your Daughter.

31 weeks is a long time...I'd think there be some negotiating room if it hasn't already sold... shruggy

the wiring definitely is sketchy, the rusty rear suspension raises a flag, along with 48K and 31 weeks as well. I did see the demon in the background in one of the pic's
I'd proceed with caution twocents

Doesn't look like a bad car if still available. Could be a good starting point.
If it were me, I would just upgrade your existing street car. Sell or trade the Gen 2 hemi for a TT Gen 3. They are not that hard to find.Probably could find a decent one built for boost.
Upgrade cage and your done. You can buy lots of parts for $48k.
