Picked up a 73 Duster to tinker on and flip, so I thought, but getting quite attached......don't tell the wife! Looking forward to viewing other peoples projects and offering help where I can. Been wrenching on cars, hot rods and race vehicles for many years and like the title says, first Mopar Product! Lots to like so far. Paul.
 
Picture of car, not exactly in current condition as engine is removed.....LOL!

wow, that looks good. Gives me some hope as I was not thrilled with the 73+ looks but hey, you gotta work with what comes your way. I just came into possession of a 1975 Duster for a great price [500 bucks] Hope mine will end up looking as good as yours does some day.
 
Judging by what can be seen under the hood, the fat tires in the back, skinny's up front, to me that car has FUN written all over it. Nice ride, welcome to FABO.
 
Thanks for the warm welcome.
A quick run down of the car and, hopefully, its future.
415 Indy Cylinder heads crate engine (crank gone - # 3 Rod journal)
727 Auto - stall unknown
742 diff with 4:11 gear
Block and crank are currently sitting at machine shop for grinding / cleaning
I want to replace the rats nest of wiring under hood area
Interior needs to be refreshed.
I believe an original 6 cylinder car but obviously been upgraded with a lot of good parts!
I basically purchased the car in its current state from an estate like sale.
