I'm getting 25 mpg!
LOL naw, mine looked like rednecks on acid! :axe:
And I love bikers, don't get me wrong. Nothing wrong with motorcycles, or the people who drive them... usually. This guy had a rap sheet longer than my arm, though. What a guy! Betcha he's kicking himself for selling it so cheap.

Years ago I used to own a wrecking yard and I got a car off this biker in a trade,it was a peice of junk called a Hyundai Stellar which I don't think they even tried to sell in the U.S.
I nicknamed it the "Smeller" cause the inside smelled like a gym bag full of dirty week old underwear and the one time I tried to drive it the heater core blew and puked antifreeze and rust all over the cheap carpet which made it hot,humid and stink even worse...I think I sent to the crusher shortly after that...
Hope you have better luck with your Duster...I vote to keep the Dukes mags and pushbar.

Yeah, I'm thinkin I'm gonna keep 'em both. Gives it an interesting vibe. If I ever start taking myself seriously, though, that pushbar is coming off. Thankfully, I probably won't start taking myself seriously anytime soon.

My dad has a '76 FD that we will get to someday I hope. It's really rusty and B5 blue with blue interior along with the 3 speed o/d transmission. We traded a '72 Ford pickup for it in about '99.
I like your car..it's cool.

Nice find.......I am sure some of the members of the "Biker Club" lost a few dollars on an inside bet wether you would get the car running or not......those are the ones I'd be looking over my shoulder for......... my advice ....keep the push bar .....it may come in handy.
Kudos to getting the car running.......just proves the old Mopar proverb "Old Mopars never die"
Oh.......welcome to the forum!

So, I just spoke with the guy whose name was on the title... sent him a friend request on facebook, and 30 seconds later my phone rings...
"suppose you're trying to get the title from me"
"actually, I have the title. That's how I got your name."
"Oh.... well, my signature is forged."
he's cool about it, though. says I can have the car. "Tom will get his when the IRS takes his house and his business. And if you ever decide to sell the car, let me know."
Holy. ****.

Maybe paint the brush guard black? That might be cool?
You figure people spend thousands on getting there car to look mint. Sometimes I think the "old school" beat up look, looks even better for much less!
