Ok FABO, I'd like some opinions here. In the process of finding a Duster to build for my wife, I've acquired quite a few of them. I have two '74's that I was originally planning on combining into one to make her a decent driver. One is a very clean slant 6 car with a 3 speed, and the other is a 318 automatic car with factory A/C. She was ok with that car being hers until she saw a '70 Duster and decided she really liked it better. I'm ok with that as I think the front end and taillights look better myself.
So here's my question to everyone. I've got two '70's sitting here that are both fairly rough. One is beyone fixable but has quite a few parts. The other is very straight from the doors forward. It's going to need rear quarters, trunk floors, rockers, and rear frame rails to be solid again. It's a 318 Twister car with factory automatic, bucket seat, console car. If you were in my shoes would you cut the tail panel off the '70 and put it and the front clip on the '74 and make a clone, or sell everything and buy an actual '70? Thanks FABO.
