Picked up my first mopar yesterday, a 1973 plymouth duster with a 318. Idk why but i have always wanted a plymouth duster since i could drive. But being in a chevy family it was hard to get the folks to go look at one for sale. 3 years after graduating college with some money in my pocket found one on craigs list for 3000.

Welcome to the club dude. I had a Duster and that is what started it all. Should be able to get all the help you need. Lots of long tooth grizzled veterans here with tons of experience to help you along.

Keep us posted!
 
Welcome, and just like blackbrick, a 74 duster started it all for me!! It was a great car, soft underneath, but up here that is what happens. More pics and updates always welcome!
 
congrats man. I just got my first old car a few months ago too. You look like you got a nice start
 
Welcome to FABO, Frostbite, from SoCal. You're going to have fun here.
Looks like you've found a solid basis for your Mopar project. What are your build plans?
Who know, maybe you'll be able to rescue the rest of your family from the 'dark side'!
 
Thanks every body im from the western nebraska. Plans are at a stop right now, the previous owner screwed the title up enuff that it got rejected until it gets fixed nothing will be done. For now i just want to put a strip kit on,bucket seats and a floor shifter in. I just wanna be able to drive it, so nothing major will be done soon. Here are some more pictures.
