Stop in for a cup of coffee

I ended up pulling that 74 duster out of the brush on Monday.

looks worse than it is. its missing parts but the floors are perfect and there is no rust anywhere, not even behind the wheels. Because its so rust free its going to be worth putting it together. Especially since I have most of the missing parts already.

$500. for the car with a title and a pair of buckets and an 8 3/4 that was not in the car.

Nice Score !!

They made them rust free? Not here in PA.

Nice Duster project. Around here 'rust free' means you get all the rust at no extra charge.

Do I smell a big block duster there?

 

[Princess Valiant]

I already have a front end on it. and the rear under it. My dad had to help me get the rear under it to unload it. They forklifted onto the trailer from where it was.

its going to get a 75 grille because you might remember a few months ago a FABO member near me posted a 75 valiant being parted out about an hour from me and I went and scooped up the front end without even having a car for it.....mainly because I didn't want it to get crushed and I figured spare fenders are never a bad thing.

Good morning all. Sounds like you have Thursday started in fine shape!

 

[halifaxhops]

Rainy day home for wayward MOPARTS! LOL It is funny how things work out.

 

[halifaxhops]

Morning Mike.

Rainy day home for wayward MOPARTS! LOL It is funny how things work out.

the really funny thing is the fenders off the valiant are actually very close to the same color as the duster. Probably could convince someone that its the original front end to the car lol

What are your plans for it?

Do I dare ask why so many views or will therapy be required?

 

[Princess Valiant]

add it to the hundreds of other things I have going lol

probably just try to get it as complete as possible and then see. The thrill of the hunt is getting them complete....pretty much boring after that. To me the fun is hunting parts and making a car whole and reversing the unfortunate part out that has already happened.

I just got a pm and have finally found a pair of rear bumperettes for the car! They are always rotted out and right now I have two left ones on. 30 and the ride, I am happy.
