Hello all,
I've been on fabo almost every night since my wife and kids surprised me with my '72 on Christmas day 2009. I bought a new '70 Duster /6 when I was 16 (in 1970) and then a '72 two years later with 318 3 spd. floor shift. I started the engine rebuild in January, removed /6 on Memorial Day, and dropped in the rebuilt 318 on Labor Day. I finally got the kinks out and now have it on the road just in time to cover it up in the garage for the winter. I will be swapping out the 7 1/4 for an 8 1/4 with 323's and putting in a 2500 stall converter. It was hard for me to remember what was then and what is now so I thought I'd share a before and after picture. Anyone have a clean driver's side front fender?
