I will grab pics tonight, they got deleted off my phone...
Car is for sale locally. Work changed, shorter commute, got the itch for a hot rod to drive.
74-75 Duster
The good:
360, Edelbrock 4 bbl, Mopar Performance finned valve covers
727 Auto
8.75 big bolt pattern
disc brakes
Extra doors and trunk lid
Manual steering, manual brakes
8.75 has 2.76 limited slip (reportedly), and has second set of springs underneath (maybe B body, didn't get to measure), but is big bolt pattern all the way around.
The bad:
No back window. No carpet. No cluster in dash. No HVAC installed. No headliner. No door panels, but started with new wood back plates. Mismatched wheels front and back. Dual exhaust, but no mufflers, cut off under back seat, with turn downs.
The Ugly:
All the bad listed above and rust in rear quarters. Front fenders rough but workable. No mufflers. Needs fuel pump, reportedly.
Long story short, is my commute is short enough, that I want to drive a hot rod. I want to hear the 4 barrels open. I want it to be unreasonable.
They want 1,000.00
Parts alone are probably worth that, but I am more inclined to make it safe, pressure wash all the tree droppings off it, and start driving.
