I was looking at the Radford Racing email I just received and wondered if you had the chance knowing the Demon was from Radford racing…..would you buy it for 100k?

 

[ScLeCo]

Nooooooooooooo.

 

[ShawnB]

Is that even an option? When I was there this month they said those Demons did not have VINs and would have to be crushed when the school was done with them. Could have been BS but everything else the instructors said wasn't so idk. Pic of 4 of 5 of them for reference....

I wouldn't buy one - they beat the shit out of those cars!

 

[Turd McGavin]

yes I'd buy one for a track car...the do maintenance on those cars, who gives a rip if they have been beat on, I'm going to do the same thing to it

I talked to the instructors when I was at the school last month. Redford has five Demons in total they use for the drag school and they are all pre-production models. Just like all their Dodge vehicles they are warrantied and serviced by Dodge and one of them has been out for almost a year waiting for a rear dif.

This was just a hypothetical question, when I was there and asked about how well the Hellcats are built the instructor said all they do is change tires, brakes and brake fluid. I just wondered if someone had the chance to buy a beat up Demon would they do it.

Just a curiosity question…..

I would guess they are maintained very well. A year or so ago someone on this forum supposedly bought a used Hellcat & found out it had been a Radford car. Not sure to how much truth to that it was.
They get used plenty but I believe they are well taken care of.
When I was there last April I saw a woman totally smoke the clutch in an instructor's car. They immediately took it to the garage & took it apart.

I'm not sure. Let me call my buddy Frank Mecum and see what he says it's worth.

Wife and I are going to drive the Demons in Dec. Really looking forward to the school.

I've tried to get those VIN's, I know Dodge made a bunch of pilot Demons and figured some of them would end up at Bondurant now Radford and they wouldn't use real Demons.

The VIN sequence was close to the real Demons but one digit off. Like a real Demon might be 2C3CDZH97JH100344 the pilot car would be 2C3CDZH97JH110344. So close enough that somebody might miss it.

So if anyone can get the VIN then post it up.

Ill get them when I am out there in Dec. How many Demons do they have anyway?

Also, the SS comes with the SRT experience. I will have to check that out.

[Slidd]

Thanks!

JRod310 says they have five Demons.

If they were selling five demons for $500k I would take all five right now, maybe a discount on the one with the broken diff. If they have vins they are not pre production models or anything like that.

I’ll paraphrase a movie “What we do in the shadows.” “I think we eat virgin blood because it sounds cool.” (A new car) Another vampire says “ if you are going to eat a sandwich, you would enjoy it more if you knew no one had f—cked it.”

 

[HellcatHellYeah]

Depends on the price, track car or garage queen, not street legal so can't drive around town in it. As these are pretty stupid rare cars I see them holding current resale value if not increasing over time.

If you are a MOPAR collector these are ones that make other MOPAR collectors take notice because of rarity not that they are the best cars produced. We'll see in 20 years I guess.

 

[Turd McGavin]

these cars get beat on, so what...but they are also maintained at an extremally high level. I'd have zero problems buying one at fair market value and continue to beat on it, then selling it for a HUGE profit to the next guy that needs it

 

[GreenMachine15]

Lol, what is fair market value on a demon, 135-150k???

 

[njsteve]

How badly do you think all those late 1960's GT350 Hertz Shelby Mustangs were abused? Just regular rental cars with no real maintenance any different than a standard rental 4-door at the time. Guys used to rent them and then pull out the engines and swap them with the beater 289 in their mom's Fairlane and then return the Shelby back to Hertz on Monday. It would be months before Hertz knew the engine was changed.

Those cars are worth some serious money now.

I'd love one just for the street cred of having a car with that kind of pedirgee: beaten for years on end and survived it all. The Credigree!

So many pansies. Learn to wrench... if something breaks it is an excuse to upgrade.
