Hi I got this duster 3 years ago from buffalo NY
I had one before but wanted to build me a better one. I found it on craigslist in late 2018. I called the guy and he wanted $3500.00 but took $3000.00 for it and let me pay over a 3 months. Really cool guy. paid and brought her home in early 2019 in a blizzard.
It was a few years before i had got most money ready to order most of the big money parts. she sat a round my house for a year and a half than went to sit by my parts camper for a year. I bought the front floor pans and the shift tunnel. than a called pst and got a pollygraphite front rebuild kit and adjustable strut rods. floor heat shielding, tubular upper control arm. and a Wilwood disk brake conversion kit with slotted and drilled rotors.
I got a us car tool a leaf-spring relocation kit (turned out to be defective)
found a new a set of hooker comp plus titainum cearmic coated headders and gaskets
Youkon gear sold me a 3.77 ring and pinyon for my 8 3/4 suregrip
Also orderd a hellwig E-body rear anti-sway bar.
Than waited for a place to start the project.
