12:05 Garage- ’70 Duster build

I guess it's time for an update. I haven't been working on anything that's visually appealing. The TTI exhaust went in pretty easy. It fits up nice and close to the floor. I ended up wending the X-Pipe instead of having 4 clamps before the mufflers. Since it fit so close to the floor I decided to wrap it with heat wrap. That was my first time messing with that stuff. It wasn't too bad, but I would lose my patience wrapping a set of headers!

After waiting about 3 months to get new door panels from Legendary I started putting them in. I will say they are very nice quality and fit very good.

I also put a battery in and started testing my Highway 22 wiring harness installation. Everything worked first shot!

Continuing on with the black theme, I decided to paint the outside mirror black. I completely disassembled the mirror and stripped the chrome. I had to drill out the folded over aluminum that held the swivel in place to take the two pieces apart. I drilled and threaded the posts to be able to put it back together and had a new mirror cut. This was a quick project that turned out really nice.
