Chuck Most Posted Sunday at 11:54 PM Posted Sunday at 11:54 PM A couple times a year, cousin Robby rolls up for a visit from Indiana. You hear him long before you see him, from the rumbling and ratting of his extremely worn out Demon, usually accompanied by some '70's and '80's AOR blasting out of the speakers. He got it when he turned 16 in 1978, and he's never owned another car. Sure, he's moved a few times, and he works at a different gas station now, but the Demon has been a constant. When Robby isn't spouting off his theories about lizard people, hollow Earth, and flying saucers, you'll find him cruising in or working on his Demon. It may look shabby but it's ready for a trip to work or the dispensary at a moment's notice. This is the MPC kit, heavily aged. I used MPC D150 wheels and parts box tires, old photo reduced plates, Gofer Racing bumper sticker, and a Spotlight Hobbies sasquatch silhouette. Aside from those additions it's a box stock build. 18 1
satterwhite78 Posted Monday at 12:00 AM Posted Monday at 12:00 AM Sincerely the best looking Dodge Demon that has grace the forum. Fantastic weathering!
Dann Tier Posted Monday at 05:29 AM Posted Monday at 05:29 AM Outstanding weathering! In my opinion, harder to do than a new, clean car.
Speedpro Posted Monday at 06:19 PM Posted Monday at 06:19 PM Great weathering. I think its so well done, I would be afraid to ride in it if it was 1:1.
Falcon Ranchero Posted Monday at 06:55 PM Posted Monday at 06:55 PM That really looks cool; I still have yet to do a rusty model car.
Kenmojr Posted Monday at 07:02 PM Posted Monday at 07:02 PM Superb weathering and patina on this fantastic build....
espo Posted Monday at 08:06 PM Posted Monday at 08:06 PM One sad looking old car, and I mean that in the best way. This is why many states require annual vehicle inspections or should. Like the snow tires on the back.
ea0863 Posted Monday at 08:09 PM Posted Monday at 08:09 PM Phenomenal weathering and rusting talent! Looks like photos of a 1:1 car. Thank you for posting.
karbuildr Posted Monday at 09:49 PM Posted Monday at 09:49 PM Chuck, that is one awesome Demon build. However, looking at it, I fear I may need a Tetanus shot. 😃😁 Just joking. I really enjoyed the cousin Robby back story, especially the "lizard people" part. (I think one of my neighbors is one of them, disguised as a human). Love the expert weathering and beater look, simply outstanding.
Ragtop Man Posted Monday at 10:37 PM Posted Monday at 10:37 PM Only thing better than the story is the build. Nailed.
nickfzr61 Posted Tuesday at 12:56 AM Posted Tuesday at 12:56 AM Beautiful build! That patina is exceptional.
