Hello from Lusk, WY !!

[SassyGrass71]

Hey everyone, my name is Sam and I'm from Lusk, WY. I just know everyone is doing a quick search to figure out where in the world Lusk,WY is.

My oldest son, Ian, is 16 and for his first car has chosen a '71 Duster. We are new to Mopars so go easy on us. This is a father/son project and hope to have it on the road by the end of summer. We chose this forum because everytime we googled for any info pertaining to this car, forabodiesonly popped right up.

So we will be picking brains, asking plenty of :newb: questions right before useing the search feature, sharing our project in the correct spot (I hope), and making a general nuisance of ourselves.

See ya on the boards,
Sam & Ian

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. Its nice to know somebody close by is on the forum as well.

You dont happen to have a 70-71 left front fender you would trade for a 72 left front fender? Either that or a marker light assembly and the sheetmetal around the light from some old mangled fender?

Hey Vanessa !! Thats a cool little Valiant !! If I might ask, how old are you? I think its super cool when the women get involved in old cars.

Thanks Ramcharger, if you ever need anything on your way through, just holler.

Had her going how?
I'm thinking of moving to Douglas when I retire from the Corps. Seems almost perfect with a dragstrip, lakes and rivers, and family nearby. Kris's dad has a nice ranch outside of Douglas.

She couldn't figure out how I knew you. lol

I'm sure she would be happy to have more family closer.
