Halloween Pumpkin

This is kinda going to be a backwards thread, I am going to start on how the car looks now, and work my way backwards thru photos.
A little history, I bought this car about a week before Halloween in 2010.
I had drove by it for several months, one day my kid was with me and said "look Dad an old mopar, lets look at it"
Ended up buying it, I should have just left it to die where it was.

It was a plain jane, poop brown 73 Duster, that started.
Typical flat black hide all paint job, with a 318, duel exhaust auto, 7.25 rear.
Nothing fancy but did have a aluminum intake and a 625 carder carb, with really custom speaker wires running to the amp gauge.

Like I said should have left it there.
8 years later its a 340 4-speed 8.75 toy.
Its not done yet, but getting close, still needs a black top installed. But this is how it sit now.

I gave it to my now 18 year old kid, because I promised him when he was 10 he could have the car. He helped out alot along the way with it.
I for one am glad you didn’t leave that Duster to die. It looks great, and your son is lucky to be getting it!
