1973-DUSTER-Oregon.

[jensens ag]

The tires are KUMHO 315/35/ZR 17 The dash comes from classicthunderroad.com Or the hole set comes from classic industries 800-854-1280

 

[jensens ag]

Just shot the inside of the doors and the dash with black bacecoat and clearcoat. The base has orange candy pearl in it.

Just ordered up a new Mirage XPO Cargo Trailer to keep the duster in. Need some place to keep the car where it stays clean when our shop has other projects that need work on that cause a lot of sparks and dust with metal fab projects. If all goes well the Duster will be painted the 2 or 3 of March. Delays SUCK. O-Well. PROGRESS.

 

[jensens ag]

Spent 16 Hrs in a paint booth and this is the color. Orange base with gold candy pearl in a mid coat and 4 layers of clear on top. Now comes cut and Buff. Will get the blacked out hood done at a later date.

Wow that looks killer.
That color really pops and I love the orange purl in the black

 

[jensens ag]

Thanks, The orange pearl went into the black base. The orange went down then in the indeterminate clear got the Gold Candy Pearl then clear on top.

I love your garage,I love your duster! Im dreaming. what size and what kind of rims are those?

 

[jensens ag]

The back rims are 17x11 and the front are 17x7 American Racing Torque. Had the back ones custom backset At least that what going on the Duster. The rear ones that are on now are stock 16" off of 2000 Ford Ranger PU.

Looking good !

Its in the sanding of the clear coat now, then buff out and finally start throwing parts at the Duster. Done some trading Labor with the painter. Now with it taking SO LONG to get it done i think i made a bad call.

 

[jensens ag]

Decided to change out the heads be fore we even got the engine off the stand. Should help a little with the HP and the Bling factor.

 

[jensens ag]

Just got the engine and transmission installed. Built the clutch linkage and bolted up the heater box and wiper motor.:cheers:

 

[jensens ag]

Could not get the picts to load last night, so here they are..

 

[jensens ag]

Getting a little done at a time its slow but steady.

 

[Woods74]

Hell yeah! I'll be there soon! :tard:

 

[fez440]

looks awesome! that color looks really good

 

[jensens ag]

Started on the pluming and wiring. Fast fuel and painless wiring with MSD pro billet and 6AL box.Summit steering column.

 

[340Duster247]

Wow looks great!!
Can anyone tell me where to get the red after market throttle braket?

 

[Powerslave]

Looks like something Lokar would make, check their site.

 

[txstang84]

I figured it was more like the Summit or Russell

EDIT: Yeah, it's Summit or something like it..

[jensens ag]

Yep your right Summit Racing.

 

[jensens ag]

Just finished installing SS brake lines,Still doing a painless wiring kit. Park brake assembly installed. Shark tooth grill Installed, Delta H4 headlights Wired in.New bumpers,all new braided fuel lines from the FAST fuel system. The under side of the hood and trunk lids are under coated and left flat black. The rear seat frame had to be modified to fit over the extended fender wells,then had to have the covers made to fit.Got all new glass in and then had every thing tinted except the windshield.Not to far from getting the engine fired up , may be in a week or two.

 

[jeffneal66]

Wow, making great progress and it looks fantastic!

Be careful driving around Bend, they have been tough on window tint lately.

 

[jensens ag]

Its a 15 tint should be OK. Rebuilt the tail lights,they turned out great. Cleaned up some of the wiring,and painted the back round on the duster emblems.
