Rabid Cross-eyed Opossum!
This is my 1973 Duster project that I purchased for $750:
This restore is going to be done on a lower budget. I'll do my best to let you all know what tips, tricks, and places to purchase parts I find along my way to save you money. I know not all of us have the deepest of pockets, but still love wrenching and restoring. I'll do my best in this restore to cater to you guys (because I am one to!), and still end up with a great looking final product!
I've got a fair amount to do. There are a few spots on the frame that have severe rust. The passenger side rear sub frame, torq box, and shackle mount are nearly missing. I'm planning to fix that with safeTCaps.
Here's the Leaf Spring saying HEY! to the interior of the trunk:
Most all of the body panels will have to go, except the doors.
The slant 6 surprisingly runs! It will be replaced with a 440 though.
Here is what the final restore will hopefully look like:
Cheers to these forums, they're great! I've found a new home.
