Picked up a 72 Demon over the summer and it appears to have a dealer added package on it. Unfortunately was missing the build sheet and fender tag but was a 318 3 speed petty blue car that was raced and if the odometer is correct only had about 19k on it. Was in a barn for about 30 years. The dealer it was sold at new was Marietta Dodge - assume that was a dealer in Marietta GA. Anyways the sticker on the tail panel slays “stinger” by Marietta Dodge followed by “Dodge Scat Pack”. As you can see it had tail and side stripes. The car also had the hood blackout on it and wheel well and rocker trim. Obviously I can’t verify everything as original with no documentation but maybe this dealer did their own version of a sizzler type package which Dodge didn’t offer in 72? If anyone has any info or thoughts let me know.

Take some high resolution photos of the sticker and good measurements (maybe include a ruler in the photos).

Super cool to reproduce and reinstall.

...and not too expensive with today's technology.
 
Thanks for the advice. Have some other projects ahead of it but will definitely try and recreate this car to the best of my ability when the time comes.

Yes..
I have a car from there.
Marietta Dodge was close to Lockheed, a major employer there at the time.
It would be a good bet that someone working there bought that car.
They sold a lot of bread and butter cars to workers.
 
Thanks for the info. Tried to look them up but looks like they’ve been gone for quite a while.
