73 Duster / Gasser / Oiler...

Thanks folks. Hearing from others, as we all know, that think "that'd be cool" is a great booster. PanGasket, thanks for the info on straight axels. Gives me an idea of what to look for as I want it to not only look odd, but it needs to drive well and be street legal too.
Bonus: 5x 4.5" bolt circle as well.

I am planning on using one when I build a gasser, if ever.

The one major downside is they are drum brake axles and they were never offered with discs.

But here's a good write-up on the scarebird conversion
