    Looking for advice. Want to build a Duster to run on a budget.

    Really appreciate everyone's input here. Unfortunately, he ended up selling it before I could get to it. I'm going to keep my eyes out for another one and keep squirreling money away for a bigger budget. If anyone knows of a Duster for sale on the east coast I'd love to know about it. I know my...

    I just need it running, guy. I have the rest of my life to get it perfect. I have a family of 5 on a single income. Why not make memories with my kids wrenching on it while they grow up? I don't have room to store it off the street that isn't on grass right now and it's not something I want...

    Thank you all for the replies. I'm going to work on getting the car and a donor truck or jeep for a 5.9 magnum and I'll keep you guys updated. Sorry I've been pretty absent today. I spent 5-6 hours working on my truck's suspension, trying to fix the death wobble, only managed to get like 25%...

    Yeah, I was looking up prices of driveshafts and other parts needed and I can see that the big block likely won't happen. That's okay, my main project is getting the 454 in my shed eventually.

    Haven't checked the car out in person yet. Rust looks minimal in the pictures but when I go see it I'll take a magnet. Not sure if it's a v8 or /6 car.

    Hey

    Hello everyone, I'm new here. I've been looking at this forum a lot lately and I'm glad to see it's still quite active. So, my late dad, his first car was a 1974 Duster 360 (picture attached). Anyways, my wife has directed me to a 1974 Duster for sale in my area. It's a roller without an engine...
