More pics for 71-440-Duster...

67 Barracuda grille and headlight bezels. The surrounds have some rash and dents but the rest is in pretty good shape. The LH egg crate is very straight, the RH has a few areas that need minor straightening. All mounting studs are present. I have tried to show the true condition of these...

Bench seat with seat belts. The seat back doesn't fold so I assume it's for a 4-door. Seat belts have a 1968 date tag. The frame and padding are in good shape and the upholstery only has a few small holes on the seat back. I hate to see it go to scrap if someone on FABO has a use for it...

Good 7 1/4 rear end from a 72 Duster with 3.23 open diff. Complete from drum to drum. I also have free springs and skinny SBP steel wheels if you want them. I hate to see this stuff go to scrap, so hopefully someone has a use for it. Price: FREE Location: 85142 Pick up only.

What size / shape sanding block are you using? Your block should be as long as possible, and at least long enough to span the three low spots you're trying to fill in. I'd recommend you wrap your sandpaper around a wood dowel or piece of PVC pipe to remake the radius along the top and bottom...

Hi all, I have a new project in the garage and I'm looking for some expert opinions on what I should do. Car details: '72 Duster with 340 swap, 727 w/Jegs 3000 stall converter, and 8 3/4 with 3.91 sure grip. It's intended to be a fun street car, not daily driven. Full interior and A/C...

Coming back to FABO after about 3 years. I used to be on this site every day during my '67 Notch build, but family priorities have been getting in the way. I recently came across 2 (yes 2!) new A-body projects and I will certainly be cruising FABO again to track down parts and get advice...

Awesome build and very nice work! Those trans tunnel pics bring back memories for me, although mine didn't turn out as professional looking as yours. I need that fuel tank!

Looks like a fun project. Nice work!! Scott

Here's a before and after pic of mine...

My 408 Magnum, 10.4 compression, TTI headers, 3" X-pipe and Dynomax Ultra-Flows with turn-downs after the mufflers. Excuse the dying cooling fan motor at the beginning... Scott 67 Barracuda first drive - YouTube
