The first Devil's Dodge was imported directly from Larry Birch III out of the U.S and made its debut performance just two days after clearing customs. It is one of the few trucks to run a Dodge Dakota body and was notorious for performing sky wheelies due to its extremely high horsepower. The engine's extensive power was unfortunately unable to be maintained due to the lack of parts in the country, and as a result, it was later swapped out for a big block with significantly less power. The truck went on to become the second Outback Thunda, while the body was re-purposed on the second Devil's Dodge.
