"Next Victim"

so, are you going with black and color graphics like the wire car or black with ghost graphics like the silver car or is it too soon in the process to decide color? it seems like you're building the silver car over again with improvements and channeling the body over the frame, or does it go much farther than that?

you are close in your thinking.....no secret if you read the earlier posts.

The silver car is a great street car...A/C , carpet, no roll bar , no real sheet metal mods other than the fender stretch. As Ross describes... factory-ish

This one will still be a street car....but race-ish. Besides raising the floor for ground clearance to lower the car ( channeling), the firewall gets moved rearward 2-1/2" and the front and rear suspensions forward 2". Exactly what the Pro Stock fabricators did in the early 70's. A roll bar (Wire car style) with removable low side X braces are planned. Very limited / minimal guage package for the race-ish look.

With the firewall and HDK suspension mods this Duster will easily accept a small block, B/RB, or Hemi. No sense in getting pigion holed on a motor combo.

The inexpensive graphics will be ghosted on the black-ish paint.....the actual Missile colors are just too in your face race car for the street.
