Duster saved by Rob!!

[69signetv8]

Rob did it! Today Rob and his son Sean grabbed the duster to keep the metal running. I was really sorry to see it go and almost had a tear in thee old eye! Nine years ago my 15 year old son put the baby together but she would have cost too much too up grade too cross the Alberta boarder. I thank Rob and his Son to keep this 70 duster shell going! (It really is like losing family)! Thanks Rob,Sean and good luck with her.

These are a few pics of her in her prime!!!!! Good Bye baby!!!!

Thanks for everything Jimmy! That was great, it's going to a good home! Sean called to say it's quite a bit better than the parts car we were going to bring back from the dead so that's great. I have a view pics of us while we were hooking it up, As is customary in Canada, Jimmy greeted us widh breakfast beer.

We now have 3 of them to build 2 good ones out of. Jimmy was sad to see it go but the Duster will be rebuilt and will be seeing some track time again, that should put a smile on his face :thumbup: Thanks again Jimmy, it was a great visit and we had no problem getting it home, the chains from the J-hooks came up right over the bumper brackets and that really braced it well.

Thanks Rob, it was good doing sales with you! Hope everything works out well. Keep me/us posted on the Hood,...would like to see it on your wheels soon :headbang:

I would love to start on the Duster but I promised Sean I would do the body and paint on the tow truck and as you saw, that will be an adventure of it's own :cussing:

He had a buddy come over 1st thing when he got it home that has done fiberglass work for 25 years to look at the hood, they're going to make a mold and make a full hood for his Duster. I'll have to do all the bodywork on it 1st so the mold comes out right. If there's any interest they can make more of them.

He figures he can your Duster up and running fairly easily and have some fun with it before doing all the body and paint resto which no doubt will end up in my lap.

I had Mopar dreams all night, gotta love that!
