Motoblag's '71 Duster

Got a used late '71+ filler neck in the mail. That will let me use one of the gas caps I have.

In my wiring tracing quest for the fuel pump I stripped most of the interior. Found the rear cross bracing was broken and I'm pretty sure the plate welded in is "custom" for the pinion snubber.



Quality welding on the cross bracing. Note the piece of weld chillin' on the steel plate:



Flappin' in the breeze:



Random exposed wire end:


Focus you fack, poor crimp on butt connector for fuel pump ground, came out in my hand.



Any time I see electrical tape I take it apart and want to weep.

I've got some cheapo front floor pans in the mail. Figured I'd work on the rears since they are solid enough.



New headlight switch:


PO-me hacked off that melted connector and carefully placed loose connectors onto the switch housing. Found a post here saying you can get new ones now. And it doesn't fit.



I'll probably dremel off the unused terminals to make it fit. All pins are accounted for, just have those extras that make it not fit.
