So a wheel bearing wear took it's toll on my right front spindle and it needs replaced, along with the bearing, and possibly the hub I am told? I am REALLY new to this so was wondering where a place to begin looking for this stuff would be? All help is GREATLY appreciated

I am still undecided. It's just a simple slant six but it's all original and matching and I am the 3rd owner. So with all that said I kinda want to keep it close to original. If I modify it, it won't be to crazy it'll all be stuff that's easily reversible I think. I do like the idea of the...

I am beyond excited! My roommate hasn't heard me shut up since it's been home. Well worth the 2 hours of digging, pulling, and tugging to get it out of the ground. The best part of the whole thing was seeing my dad's eyes light up. He's always wanted another Duster but he always worked 80+ hour...

I agree! There was 4 of em here. The girl in the background of the one picture needed some work done on her daily driver so it took priority of my tear down :/ Hopefully I can get outside later and get the back seat out and the carpet.

It was buried deep ino the ground! Took us two hours to winch it out (Forgot my come along so had to wait for one). Coming off the trailer tho was a breeze! lol

Last night I started some tear down, was up till 2 am ripping out the interior. Didn't get to far cause I had a couple guests over and another car that needed fixed a lil sooner then my duster needed it's teardown lol SEATS OUT! Well front anyways.

So I been REALLY slow to get pictures posted due to work and time restraints with other obligations. The car is a 74 Duster. Original slant six, horrible green color, automatic, bottom of the barrel options. I wanted the car because it was the same year as my dad's first car as a kid. Made it...

Maybe I should just get em all lol

I live in Wichita! Live in south Wichita work in north and my mom lives downtown lol. KU med school? If so I drive b it everyday on my way to work!

My best friend since childhood taught me everything I know. He is more into newer cars tho lol, but a lot of what he taught me I can apply to this stuff as well!

So I have had the option of picking up a 76 Plymouth Scamp. I am making this post not to just say that, but to get some feedback! I am having a hard time finding much on this year of car except that it was the last and didn't differ much from the 75 and in 74 it the wheel base was changed and it...

Sweet, Thanks!

Ditto I found a couple on ebay but also not sure if they should be trusted. I looked on yearone.com with no luck (unless I missed it) and Layson's restorations, also no luck.

I don't wanna hijack your thread but I was actually wondering myself where members get their rebuild kits (the ones who do). I was looking for one for my 74 Duster slant six. :dontknow:

I like it! Minus the Jets poster :P Looks really good tho, and clean!

Thanks a lot fellas!

Does this forum offer little novelty gifts? Such as window decals, lanyards, shirts, hats, etc.? Just curious :) Thanks! -Chris

Thanks! I wish I knew some of this stuff before I posted up stuff lol. Rookie learning curve, thanks again :)

I just purchased my first classic/restoration project car, a 74 Duster. It doesn't have A/C it was pretty much bottom of the baseline from factory so I am looking to buy everything I need to add A/C to the car if it isn't to hard to do. Looking to get prices of what it would cost to do this and...

PM'd with questions!

lol, idk if that was sarcastic but it probably does sound silly that i had to make the decision to build it how i wanted to or not I'm sure :/ Thanks for all the feedback tho!

That's exactly what I am going to do, build it for me. I cant wait to get it home! :)

Both of you have great points. Seems to me the general conception is enjoy your car the way you want to. Which is a nice relief, being new around here and new to the scene I figured most people would wanna keep it original or gotta have this or that, from the sounds of things nothing will...

You're 100% right Vs, I can't lose sight of the big picture of what attracted me to American Muscle in the first place, the performance... and I should just enjoy it! I don't wanna ever sell it (I say that now) Guess as long as I love it, is all that matters since I have to drive it lol Thanks...

Sorry don't have epics yet it has to get towed here in the next few days i just bought it, and i need a camera :/ It's base line low end. No power steering, no A/C, Bench seats, basic slant 6, automatic. It's pretty much the lowest end. So I could see it already not being worth a lot, but the...

The Duster I own is all original. Original motor, wheels, paint, car jack even. I just got it and i love the idea of the "classic" muscle car look like the little wings they had em on cant remember the wings name, and the hood sccops, hood pins with the matte black accents. The problem is I...

Gotta get it hauled to my house (just bought it the other day havnt got it towed, needs a battery and carb cleaning/rebuild) and I get a decent camera that isn't my phone lol
