    what's the differences? I know the differences between the obvious center inserts, but what about the housings and bezels? The headlight bezels? can you just change the center grille in the 67 & 68 housings? Are the headlight bezels different?

    Has anybody used or seen these bezels in person? The price doesn't seem too bad if the quality is acceptable. It'd be real nice to not have to deal with dented originals...

    ? for Paint experts...

    The body work and paint for my 68 Charger was completed around 1995 or '96. At the time the car was my fathers, but I completed the resto and he lost interest and gave me the car. Anyway, even when fresh, the paint never really hada mirror finish. It looked nice, but I guess it was never...

    First, can anybody recommend a place in SE PA that will strip my car? I'm sure there are dozens out there, but I would rather someone recommend a reputable place that knows how NOT to warp and damage body panels along the way. Second, how does the stripping process work - after it's...

    DIY quarter skins

    I've surfed many Mopar sites on the web over the years, but have never really found any detailed information regarding hanging quarter skins. I have a basic understanding of what I need to do, but I'm still hesitant to do it myself because I'm not sure what i might run into. I'm sure there are...

    Black out hood question...

    I'm going to paint my '73 Duster with the black-out hood scheme (the one that continues around the side windows) - I recently saw another Duster with this paint scheme in person.

    Bumper swap (73 to 70-72)

    I have a 73 Duster with the big clunky front bumper. I want to swap on an earlier style A-body bumper. Can I just switch bumpers or do I also need the bumper brackets too? For example, swaping a 70 Duster front bumper onto my 73 Duster. Also, what year/model A body bumpers will...
