    Player1up's 73 Duster

    I know what you mean about doing the work yourself. I did a lot of work myself......that I knew I could do.....I had so much invested in the car before the body work, I didn't want to ruin it with my limited knowledge of doing it and messing up something. I did go to the body shop very...

    My Pro Street Hemi Duster

    OUTSTANDING isn't even close to describing the car!!!!!! Also like someone else said, "I love it except for the fact that it's your's and not mine".........I'll also have to just settle on my 340......maybe someday build another motor........Again I say OUTSTANDING!!! Forgot to say that it was...

    Player1up's 73 Duster

    The car looks great! I know what you mean about being reluctant about doing the body work and the search for parts is at times a real pain.......especially to find the right stuff at a decent price. It's like most places want a premium for their parts. Anyway, they know that they will get it...

    My Blown 340

    I have to say 'blown340' that I'm jealous!! I've always wanted to put a blower on my 340 but don't know enough about the 'ins & outs' of them to really get started or should I say to not get burned when making the correct purchase......... I think it looks so intimadating to other cars when...

    My 'baby' going to the body shop

    My 'baby' going to the body shop

    Don (body shop man) seems to be very picky in the way he does the work. As I've said, I've watched him during this process and glad that I waited to get him to do the work. He has told me that he likes doing insurance jobs because of the money but hates the way they (insurance companies) tell...

    My 'baby' going to the body shop

    I'll do that..........I've watched a lot of what has gone on with the restoration and helped when I could. He does a VERY good job and is very perticular in doing his work. I told him today that I had to wait to get my car into his shop but it was worth the wait!!!!!! Greg........mtn_jake

    My '75 Duster "The Juice"

    Great looking job!! I know what you mean about doing the dirty job of cleaning under the car and painting it to prolong it's life....not to mention a great looking job when someone looks under the car to expect to see a lot of rust or oil and grease but to see a clean...mean looking ride...

    1968 Dodge Dart convertible BARN FIND!! PICTURES!!!

    In less than a month!! You are well on your way with what you've found and starting the work so quickly!! There ought to be a poll or bet of the date you are finished with her. But that would really put a lot of pressure on you......I think. But it would be interesting. My 73 Duster is...

    My 'baby' going to the body shop

    Thanks Gerty........ I purchased some seals for the tail lights from ebay but the people that sell them are located at: http://www.DetroitMuscleTechnologies.com These gaskets or seals look great and feel like just like orginal....but they go between the lense and the tail panel.

    My 'baby' going to the body shop

    You're telling me......!! I was shocked when I found that out from the man that sold it to him. Anyway, all is good now.
