Hey guys...I sold my 73 Swinger to a couple of really nice guys from Woodward, OK. They bought it for a guy who just went through a cancer battle and is a little down on his luck right now. A great story of true good friends.

I searched high and low for another A-Body to try and get the best bang for my buck. I bought 3404Speed's 74 Duster out of Colorado. I think I have a good starting platform. It was on the ForABody classifieds for about a month. After a few emails/texts and phone calls and feeling comfortable about the car and seller, I sent a friend of mine up to Denver and hauled it home this weekend. Thanks to Paul/3404speed for being upfront and honest and helping my driver get it all loaded up for the 12 hour drive back to Tulsa!
I'll keep you posted on the progress!

I love the cop wheels and dog dish caps. looks like a super solid car. congrats and keep the pics coming. Its also nice to hear about a transaction going so smoothly here on FABO!
 
Just finished that trip, on vacation visiting the girlfriend's sister. Had a lot of fun out there. Keep it under 85 I-70 and 135 and you're golden.

Awesome car. I like how clean it is.
 
Looks good!
Maybe start a build thread of some sorts when you get into it and do some upgrades.
I always thought that this car was a good deal as soon as it hit the classifieds!
 
Yes, I'll be looking out for it too. I already put alot of time and money in it and hated to see it got, but sometimes life takes over and things change. Good luck with it Todd, and don't hesitate to contact me if any questions...
 
Update...a few things I have done to the Duster. Blasted and painted wheels, new 275 60 15 BFG;s on back to match the ones on front. Stripe kit. Painted bumpers and grill. Wayne Smoothers will be installing my new 400 hp 360 he built for me next week. Go Wing ordered from FPAP and hood scoop is being shipped. Interior is next. Trying to have all done for the "Mopars In The Park" November 2nd at Tulsa Speedway.
