    To Restore or Not to Restore

    No $ in original, that you can do- parts not there to be bought.#'s match? maybe. Bolts correct? -no. Forget the jackson-Barrett scam. It won't happen. Restore it to good, the correct way, Then see what happens. Beauty in the eye of the beholder; that wants it.

    Yeah, if pics on computer (I keep them in folders on the desk top, as I can't remember poop anymore). Reply, say a few words, like here they are,in title, then scroll down to manage attachments. then hit browse, upload, one at a time. If they are bigger than, say, 480x600, have to re-size...

    my first duster.

    Vent: take off the gas cap, stuff a rag in it; bet that's not the problem. Start by finding intitial timing, and Total. Start by bringing up initial to 16, drive it (don't run it up past 4000, or less, if you hear ping). If that helped, time to get in the dissy, first. Then time to fix carb...

    gotta keep at it

    After a year on this project, and years on my Duster... All Mopars use the same parts, are wired the same, only diff seems to be the disc brakes, and converted both. No prop valve problems. etc. Welding sheet metal takes practice. I hate body filler, lol. I have learned to hate a/c and pulling...

    To Restore or Not to Restore

    since 1981, but the Duster has always been on jack stands (work, etc, family). Decided to finish it 3 years ago, and immediately got laid off (construction). It hasn't seen Blanding Bvld since 1983.

    To Restore or Not to Restore

    Lol, we already had that Charger up to 120, trying to get 3rd gear shift point set; hell, it self shifted at 90, what will it do? Us 2 old farts backed down, it has a lot more in it. You know, here in Fl, the cops get really pissed as soon as they see that magic 100 mph on their radar.

    To Restore or Not to Restore

    And let me tell you, he left a bunch of HP behind, when he said he wanted a cruiser, low maintainence. But, what a joy to drive. Once we figured out that 2 Eddy 750 were just screwed, bought a new one, and tuned it, head ache smell gone, plugs good. And that pos procomp dissy gave us huge...
