What happened to all the guys who were ripping into me, i would like to hear from them now that a 71 demon did come from the factory? I took alot of abuse of this, and i took it personally because i am not the kind of person some of you made me look? Read the post from the collector in Flordia, maybe someone here knows who he is.

If I am the Florida Collector you are referring to, I stand by my comments. We would all like to see prrof of the cars heritage. Mr. Norm as you may or may not know made some pretty radical stuff-He made it not Ma Mopar. Many on the other thread said they didnot believe, but I believe any who are familiar with Mopars never say never. The comments by me and others were directed more for your intent (as we percieved it) than the car's origin. I never heard your responce the rumor of you trying to buy Demon fender tags on E-Bay, I case you didnot know the fender tag contains the VIN so ones from another car would be no good. I will be watching this thread so if you have any comments for me directly, don't hesitate, all though I my be out of my trailer house feeding my dog!

Ok ive been doing tons of research on 71-72 Demons and Dusters with factory sunroofs. 1971-72 Demons, Dusters never came from the factory with a metal style sunroof never !!!. During 1971 and 72 a vinyl folding style sunroof with a code of V3 could be ordered in either Black V3X and V3W for White. It is a ultra rare option and very few cars were ever built . They were installed a ASC American sunroof Corp in Detroit. I recently looked at a geniune 72 Demon with the V3 option and its clearly marked on the bottom of the 3 original buildsheets American sunroof corporation with the V3X code in the proper line, all V3 cars had this typed at the bottom of the buildsheet. I have a complete V3 folding sunroof section im going to install on my 72 340 4-spd Demon simply becuase finding a genuine 72 340 Demon with the V3 roof is almost impossible . Metal sunroofs came in 73 thru 76 on Dusters, Dart Sports and Swingers. I hope this helps , hardcharger65.

I always thught the sunroof option didnt come out until the 73 dart sport option. My cousin has 2 73 dart sports in northeast nebraska, i have scrapped out 1 73 slant 6 car with the sunroof option. I wasnt aware of this option in anything prior, pluss the demon was quote unquote a higher end car, and these cars, i didnt think came out with the cardbord head liner until the 73 models. I have seen some 71 dusters with the cardboard headliner, but they were either very late 71s, or 72 model headliners put in the demon because the factory demons had a bow type headliner, and they arent very easily adapted to the sunroof option due to the bows in the cloth headliner. I have seen non sunroof cars having the sunroof added by any skilled body man, but they all had a cardboard headliner put in place of the cloth bow type headlinner. My guess is that without the proof of your fender tags, or the build sheet, Im guessing that you have a legit Mr Norms car, but they installed it in 72 on a 71 model car as so many people have done in the last 30+ years. A picture of your build sheet, and fender tag would definatly help the controversy. I have also seen some late 72, some 73 dart sports models labeled as a demon, they had the 73 front end, and the 73 dart sport tail lights, so mopar definatly did some funky things, but who knows. Steve Peterson from Yanton South Dakota had scrapped out a wrecked dart sport labeled as a Demon .
