Hello all, Does anyone have a picture or schematic that indicates the proper cable routing for a drivers side door mirror? I can see there are some clips attached to the old mirror. It was left in a partial state of dis-assembly when I bought it so I do not know what the correct location is...

Hello everyone, After a long hiatus, I'm back and have good news! My 1971 Duster Twister is almost finished! :blob:

Come on everyone!!! We all get busy, that's life! Better than the alternative... right? Now, everything aside (including hydrocodone cause that just dulls the senses)... Close your eyes and take a deep breath... listen... is that the sound of a MOPAR V8... in a restored time capsule? Isn't...

Lemon Twist it is! This is the color on the VIN tag and you can see bits of the original in the pics.

I bought my duster in 2007. It's finally time to kick it on into (or out of) the driveway and get it painted! Upholstery, new bumpers, carpet, spoilers and 8-track tapes are ready for her return! I CAN'T WAIT! :)

I don't know if it's that's true... But if it is, I can't say that I have a Charger... Wish I did! Honey? Can I get another car???? ;>)

That looks very similar to my build! Mine started in 2007 and I finally have it in for paint! Upholstery, new bumpers, carpet and spoilers are ready for her return!

Thanks Bill, The brakes did'nt quite look like that straight from the junk yard when I pulled them. I think I paid $34.99 for each side, complete assembly. The mechanic who helped me put everything together did a real nice job, media blasting the parts, painting them and installing the new...

Hello all, Dang, I did'nt mean to cause any "???", or X2, or X3 or :rolleyes:. I was only trying to give an update of my project. If anyone cared. :sad2: I must have clicked on the "pole" option and was just wanting to get the info out there. It was the wee hours of the morning. My Bad...

Hello all, Whew! It's been a long time since I have posted anything here! Here are some pictures of my Duster finally getting it's new front end bushings and disk brakes! The bushings are the PST poly and I added their sway bar which was interesting to get mounted. (They should have designed...

Hi all, I have all the PST parts to rebuild my front end and am going to change it to the factory a-body Kelsey-Hayes disc brake setup I found off of a recently driven car from a junk yard. My question is this. I've heard when you do this you have to change the master cylinder as well. When I...

Cool, thanks for the info! :profilel:

Hi all, Well I took it out again today and it was fine for the first 15-20 minutes. Then it started sputtering so I pulled over and felt the coil and it was not hot. I also removed the gas cap and there was a good amount of pressure that escaped. I left the gas cap off but it didn't seem to...

Thanks everyone, I'll try these things tomorrow... Speaking of the coil, I posted this earlier on another post: Maybe one of you knows the answer to this... Years ago, a good friend of our family showed me how to "ground the coil" on my 65 Barracuda to serve as a poor mans anti theft...

Cool, I'll do this tomorrow! Thanks

Hey all, I have been working on a weird sputtering issue in my 71 duster for a long time. The car will start and run fine when the engine is cold/warm. I can stand on it when I first get it out like this and it does not sputter. After the car warms up though, it will start to sputter and...

Hello all! Maybe one of you knows the answer to this... Years ago, a good friend of our family showed me how to "ground the coil" on my 65 Barracuda to serve as a poor mans anti theft device. He helped me rig a switch hidden under the dash with a wire going through the firewall to the...

Hey there, I did some research on this myself and found that it is the same as ralley wheel argent silver. I got mine from Eastwood Auto. The stuff I got from Totally Auto was Totally #@%^&^*&! Take a look at my restoration: http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=48658

Thanks for the picture charger70! When you say late model, what year? I appreciate all the responses everyone. I'll dig into it on the weekend! 8)

Thanks Oklacarcollecto! Those suggestions sound good. I'll wait and see if there are any more ideas.

Hello all, I hope someone can help me with an issue I am having with my front right wheel drum. The other day I was driving my 71 Duster around and noticed some rattling/rubbing sound from that side. I jacked and blocked the car up and tugged on the tire and wheel to check for a bad bearing...

I don't think I'll have to. The paint is adhearing nicely and does not chip off in the test areas I've tried on the backside. I hesitate using a clear coat as it might change the appearance of the paint (gloss vs semi gloss, etc). What type would you recommend if I did decide to do that? Thanks

Hey all, I'm still pulling off the liquid mask and it is tedious as well. I probably should have put on 2 coats of it and some sort of mold release under it. The liquid mask did do it's job though... The black paint underneath looks great. I'm going to soak the whole thing in the bathtub...

I finished painting the silver! I ended up masking the teeth off to paint the top and bottom flat surfaces. Then after those were dry, I masked them off and painted the teeth. The reason for this is I was getting over spray onto adjacent surfaces that partially dried before they landed...

Your coil might be grounding out. Check the wires leading to and from to see if they are freyed. I know that there is a simple way you can force the coil to ground for a low budget anti theft device by running an additional wire from the positive terminal to a switch under the dash (grounded to...

Eastwood auto has an excellent match, factory argent silver for mopar ralley wheels. Part number 100001Z

I got the turn signals done! What do you think? Now its on to the main grill section. I thought masking the black would be easier but the complex angles of the support pieces on the top and bottom of each "tooth" make this too difficult. I thought back to my days as a graphic artist and figured...

What's a carburator? ](*,):occasion::read2:

Ooo, I almost forgot! You can also see the factory imperfections between silver and black. They must have had some jig that would shield each color from the next as it went down the production line...
