My first mopar 74 Plymouth duster

You are off to a good start, making it mechanically safe, alot of guys just rip them apart and they never get put back together.
Keep it red and the A230 will take a beating.
Slow upgrades will keep the wife happy with smaller amounts of cash spent.
I also have a jeep addiction.

Thanks, gutting it and then being at a stand still with no cash and overwhelmed is what I was afraid of. That is why I'm just bouncing around and doing what I can on my budget right now. I'd like to get it running and driving better and get what I can cleaned up, then I'll really start digging into things. I will be keeping it red.
