Car has been inactive for a couple of years. We have done quite a bit to make her a driver again. Fixed the heater and climate control stuff and then moved on to fixing leaks and a noisy lifter. It all started when we loaned it out for a movie shoot and it started leaving puddles on the floor.

At my wits end with this car. It stalls sometimes just by turning on the headlights. It will stall when thrown in reverse and will stall when the fan setting is on high. I have done the following: Checked engine vacuum at idle-19" Swapped Carbs with a known good one of same type-Holley...

I have installed the B&M/Dorman style with the large through bolt drilled out but they always leave allot of fluid in the pan by their design. I saw this idea several years ago, use a castle nut welded in the pan and it allows the pan to completely empty, so that's what I did. Welds ain't...

Since I had the car up on jackstands to rebuild the front end I figured it was time to drop the pan, adjust the bands and replace the selector shaft seal since it was just starting to leak. Turns out the toughest part of the job was getting the new seal in. The first seal was a national seal...

My original LCA bushings finally completely and totally gave out. Posting a few pics of the fun.

7-1/4" small bolt pattern rear end. 2:76 axle ratio. Complete with drums. While the brakes are ten years old the shoes, wheel cylinders and drums have less than 5,000 miles on them. Drums and wheel cylinders were new at the time. Very good condition, axle bearings and seals were replaced when...

My 73 Duster is on it's third replacement idler arm in maybe 30,000 miles. The last one that failed was a moog problem solver which looked pretty robust but had gone completely loose at the centerlink pivot. loose enough that the linkage was hitting the header where it did not before. Current...

I was getting out of my car last Friday after work and when I pulled the door handle something let loose and now my door has to be slammed to get it to close. The door latch used to have two catches now it only has one and you have to close it pretty firm to get it to close. The first catch...

After wrestling with trying to find NOS foam or repro foam for the last 2 years I gave up and just accepted the fact that I am going to have to work with what I already have. The upside is all the foam is still intact but it is mushy,unsupportive and in need of some help before putting on an...

I have a July build 73 Gold Duster with the white buckets and folding rear seat. I just got my new Legendary seat covers in and they have coachman skirts and backs on the buckets along with the correct for all 73 and up models shallow elk grain inserts(the pleated part). My Duster has the...

Does anybody know if it was possible to get the Goldduster package without the stripes? Were there any 73 Golddusters that came from the factory with the stripes deleted. I am in the planning stages of giving my car the make over treatment and was considering going with the over the top 73-74...

I have what I think is a mopar 18" viscous fan but it will not clear my heavy duty radiator on my 73 Duster with 360 engine. The blades hit the top radiator tank. Blade pitch is 2-1/2". Part number of fan is 4140422, not the same number on the current mopar viscous package 4120758 which is I...

I have not been able to locate new seat buns for my 73 Duster bucket seat car. I really only need to replace the bottoms, does anybody know if there are any new seat bottoms that interchange? The 73 up E bodies look like a possibility.

I got my rear end job partially completed this weekend. I replaced my 7-1/4" 2:76 geared unit with a home built 8-1/4" stuffed with a track-lok limited slip and motive 3:55 ring and pinion. Note the vice grips in the upper left corner of shot holding the brake hose closed. I simply cut it with...

My A body is a 73 Goldduster with a 360 transplant. It's been in the family since it was less than one year old. I have been driving it off and on since 1981. It started out life as a well optioned slant six car with air/auto/buckets/spacesaver package. I have had a string of special interest...
