I have enjoyed owning this GTX since 1988. This was my first Mopar. Before this GTX I dreamed of 1969 Mustangs and 1970 Cougers. 8 Years ago I refreshed the Hemi and since then I hold the honors of having one of the Quickest Hemis on Polyglas tires and the Slowest Hemi on Polyglas Tires :argue . With the Demon back together it's time to dig into the GTX. The fuel system needs to be flushed, Carbs rebuilt, rebuild the brakes and rebuild the slowest Hemi and make it one of the quickest Stock Hemis.
