'72 Duster. Original slant six auto, now 340 4 speed.

Not actually how I bought it, this is when I started work on it in 2003. Bought it in 1985, drove it every day, and don't have pictures from then.

Thanks James I love your builds too. I'm sure that you feel the same way with your Dart and Cuda'. Sometimes it seems like it will never get done. :banghead:
 
Badart, so was your car a '73 before you swapped out the front clip? Anyway, mopardude is right, that car looks mean the way it is now.

BTW, love that scenery in Utah. Beautiful Mountains. Are they the Wasatch Range, San Juan Mountains, or neither?

I thought this was appropriate since I mentioned the Rockies...

"Huh...I expected the Rocky Mountains to be a little rockier than this....I was thinking the same thing...that John Denver's really full of $#it man."

Can you name that flick?

Nice clean 68 you have there.

Thanks but my dart is kind of a mutt. 70-71 front clip, 74 duster doors and the rest is 73. It was just a plain jane 318 car, so no harm. I just prefer the 70-71 front end.

I live in Cache Valley, so it is the Wasatch Range and only live about 15 miles from SE Idaho. Nice country. BTW the movie is Dumb and Dumber. LOL

Oh yeah and I also live where they filmed Napoleon Dynamite. Ever see that one?
 
Thanks for the compliment on my Dart.

Cool, thanks for the info on your car as well, it looks really nice.

Yeah, the movie is Dumb and Dumber....that scene always pops in my head whenever I see a picture of the Rockies.

Yes, I have seen Napoleon Dynamite. One of my favorite films actually. They filmed it in and around Preston, Idaho. I heard the scene where Napoleon was running while in his Prom Tux, it was something like 110-115 degrees. Does it get that hot where you live?
