'71 Duster 440 or 360? Pros and cons

Jim, I am 25. That is a pretty good point you bring up. I would like something that is very different to drive than the Nova I already have. I love that car for what it is. It most definitely is a really great driver and there is a lot done to the 350 that's in it. I think I could live with this Duster being less than cosmetically perfect. I think I am going for a cruiser with some serious power and bragging rights.... I REALLY wish 4 speeds were easier to find. The aftermarket options are extremely expensive.

I had guessed that you were younger. Shop around for four speed stuff. Take your time. I got lucky when I collected the four speed stuff that is in my son's car. You've got plenty of time (then again I told myself that when I was your age and all of a sudden I'm 53....)...
