Thank you but I have been there , the site is mainly devoted to the 70 Hamtramck models if I was alot better with a computer I would consider started a Dodge Demon Registry thanks Frank
 
Welcome...If you are good enough on a computer to post pics of your ride that would be awesome...sweet combo!
 
I have seen somewhere the list of what plant built what cars each year.
I think that Hamtramck plant built only A-Bodies and E-Bodies in 71.
I could be wrong.
 
My car is in the middle of a restoration I will post some pics when it is finished , thanks Frank

Frank, You may try emailng Barry from the 70 Hamtrack site. He has tons of info that he hasnt posted.
 
I talked to Barry on Monday, Barry told me that the vehicles being produced for the 1971 year at Hamtramck was the Dodge Demons ,Dusters,Valiants and the E bodies I have not talked to him since, but what Iam trying to figure out how the (sequence Number on the buildsheet ) and the (Sequential number last six digits on the Vin ) work and when Hamtramck was building these cars were you getting a Demon coming down the line then 2 or three dusters then 5 Valiants and maybe acouple of cudas because my sequence number is so early it is 1|0005_ _ and My Vin is LM29H1B102_ _ _ built on Saturday August 8 1970 I might just have get a hold of Galen
 
I believe that the Sequence number refers to the assigned Order for a particular car. It can come from internal departments, for one offs, promos, etc. or as dealer bank cars - building a run of assorted cars for general sale, and orders from dealers for custom-ordered cars. From what I understand, these normally just used the next higher number. It is possible that some may have never been built - cancelled orders. Some special runs may use a sequence of numbers not in the normal number batch - eg. use a letter as the first VON character.

The VIN number refers to the intended order of buid on the assembly line. This sequential number is unique to all vehicles at the plant
 
They ran 2 lines side by side there. On Line 1 they built A bodies and on Line 2 they did the E bodies.

Check the last codes on the tags...
EN1--End Of Codes- Line 1
EN2--End Of Codes- Line 2

Well, I've been waitin' for a picture of the elusive Orange on Orange here........I've never seen one.........

Anyone have pics of the finished product?
 
I think someone installed the console, 4 speed A's with a console in 71? Doesn't show in the tag either.

They flip flopped lines they built a's and e's. 1970 A's were built on line 2

Cool car.

No real rhyme or reason to VON and VIN. There are identifier in the VON as to intended location, like B and the C in the third line.

my two cents... don't waste your time or money with Galen, unless you are a personal friends.
 
Hey my boss has one of them. ev2 inside and out, 340 4speed 71 demon. it's my next project after the roadrunner is done.

I wonder if that car is supposed to have a burnt orange carpet? I think it would look GREAT with it........

I can't tell if that on in the pic is black, or just plain dirty all over.........

The burnt orange carpets are killer for looks.........8)

No if you orderd a Orange interior it only came with orange seats with black seat back and orange door panels with orange arm rests carpets were black atleast every orange interior I have ever seen in a Demon or Duster has come that way
