this was going to the crusher !

[oldcarnut]

yes , this was literally going to the scrap yard...yes i saved it & no it or any part on it is not for sale lol . 70 h code duster fj5 (has fendertag), auto , buckets , console , tuff wheel, pdb , p/s , suregrip , dual ex , drip rail trim , rallyes . All the goodies still with it except motor & trans , but the radiator & shroud , driveshaft & hp manifolds were still in it . Someone down the road added a funky vinyl top so its got some rot around the windows , driverside floor pan & some in the trunk pan , overall pretty solid and a heckuva deal too . Cant believe they were gonna crush it ! heres some pics....

[oldcarnut]

im so damn poor , i get a car in hopes of doing something with it , life happens ... get hurt , financial woes ... sell current car then find another , i wanna keep em all lol . I really would like to do something with it . It's locked away in dry storage & this week im gonna clean it out & blow the rat turds out it . Time will tell , at least ive got it to daydream about if anything...

Nice! Am or am/fm radio?

 

[cudacrazy67]

Very nice save but why would you support the car in the back right on the exhaust tips?

 

[oldcarnut]

i didnt support it by the exhaust tips , it was getting staged to cut up when i showed up! It has the am radio..

 

[oldcarnut]

it's a shame it needs metal repair around the windows , there is not a rip or tear in the headliner

 

[clhyer]

Excellent save:hello1::hello1::hello1:

A very nice save........ look's to be very restorable!!

 

[carcrazyguy]

First....GREAT SAVE!!!!

That is pretty much what I am building out of my FJ5 /6 car. Probably should have found something like that to put back together instead of adding all the rallye gauges, 8 3/4, buckets and console to mine.

Good luck with it!

 

[chryslerfat]

Thank god you saved that one.

 

[gdrill]

Awesome score. Hope you can get to it someday.

 

[Abodybomber]

Nice find! Thanks ,for saving it.

 

[oldcarnut]

im looking @ all my junk collection & wanting to get rid of everything to fund this car . Its crazy , when i come across this stuff i just want to get it ...1st because i love mopars & second it's near next to impossible to find anything that isnt ridiculously overpriced , they are not in the pics but the car actually had some 14x8 rallyes on the back , whoever made them did a great job too , they look factory

 

[OldmanRick]

Thanks for saving my favorite "A" Body. Can't wait to see some pics as you get it cleaned up. Both manifolds too.....:cheers:.

 

[69DARTS]

nice save

 

[4spdragtop]

Awesome and thank you!

 

[CUDACOX]

Great news! Glad you saved it. Judging by the pic's it was well worth saving! The Manifolds are worth more than scrap price!

 

[hemitheus]

thank you for preventing some witless hack from ruining yet another classic mopar

 

[ef8340]

wow a great find indeed, did you get it at scrap price?

 

[moparmat2000]

Awesome save, but not a tuff wheel. Thats a grant challenger ll 3 spoke wheel. Looks similar to a tuff wheel. I modified one of these to fit my dads lil red express, later he actually bought a real tuff wheel. Man i wish i could find something like the duster you found. Some people.dont know what they have, but that makes it better for all of us who look for this stuff.

Cant wait to see it restored
