Good morning, just wanted to thank everyone for their responses and pictures, it is very much appreciated. Im going to try and find a paint to mimic the phosphate , any suggestions?

i just took the one off my 73 Duster and on the backside where it screws into the hood there is zero corrosion and its real shiny metal, almost like a zinc brightness to it. maybe different years used different finishes? there is no signs of black phosphate on this original one owner 73...

Hello FABO, I have a new set of espo springs ready to go into my Duster, i cleaned them and sprayed them with 2K epoxy. I need a recommendation on the paint, I want to paint them black. Can someone recommend a durable off the shelf paint, it must be durable and the correct sheen, not too shiny...

Thank you Steve, I think with the info you provided I can get the black out on the hood and the ladder decal applied.. Thanks again...Rich

Hi FABO, my Duster is getting ready to be painted real soon and i decided that i would like to add the Twister style graphic on the hood, also known as the ladder stripe. Applying the decal is pretty straight forward, (i think) My question is does anyone have a real Twister hood that could take...

hey guys, im looking for new aftermarket door handles for my 73 Duster, I like the Trim Parts handles, they are authentic restoration product, whatever that means. Everywhere im looking says they are out of stock. Does anyone know of a Trim Parts dealer that might have these in stock....Thanks...

Hi everyone, quick question... Dodge has the scat pack decals for the windows from the factory or dealer or maybe after joining the club but what about the Duster?

I would like to make these super nice, obviously the exterior gets painted body color but im interested in the area that you see in the trunk. Mine are kinda crusty and would like them to look factory correct. To me the steel retainer looks to be zinc plated, what about the body of the light ...

Hi, i have a 73 Duster that originally came with a bench seat, im changing that to buckets. My question is if i change the 73 retractible seat belts and replace them with say 68.69,70,or 71 retractible belts will they work with the original 73 belts? the 73 retractible unit is very large and now...

nodemon, well said in your first post, i think a lot of us can relate. Your not alone, ive got a lot of great advice from the FABO family. My restoration skills have gotten so much better thru trial and error but my mechanical know how is still pretty weak, I keep reading and asking questions...

guys like i said im not very versed on cam stuff, i dont want to take my stock 1970 used cam and try to regrind a monster cam out of it, there probably isnt much of a difference between a 69-70 cam and a 68-4 speed cam...???

Good morning FABO.. I want to build my 340 to 1968 4-speed specs, Rusty has me very interested to call Oregon cam and order that very cam.

Good morning FABO, i have a 73 Duster that im turning into a 71 Duster, I wanted to add the rear spoiler wing.I need to cut the underside of the deck lid because there isnt any provisions for a wing there. My question is who sells a quality reproduction Duster rear wing? I was looking at First...

so just a quick update, i completely removed all the e-coat on the exterior of the 2 fenders and probably 90% of it on the inside of the panels. I used 180 on my DA sander and lots of hand sanding. My next step is to spray them with 2K epoxy...Rich
