72 duster Build progress
I will be making progress soon!!!!
first let me say........I picked up a chevy truck about a month ago and ended up taking the carb off the duster and put on it and then sold the truck.
So yesterday I put a holley 750 race carb on the duster as a temorary replacement....eventually I will either get a 650 eddy for it or I love holley 670 street avengers so I may go that route.
that aside......
I FINALLY got the cash for some metal!!! so a week or two ago I got in contact with Kevin King (president of year one) and he remembered me from winning the young guns contest in Mopar Muscle Mag....and he got me some pretty good prices on some of what I was needing so I put it all on order.
I order both passenger and drivers side rear quarter panel patches and I ordered my new tail panel.
My trunk drop extension panels and end caps and the filler panel below the tail panel could use a little attention also but I am going to fab those up myself out of sheet metal rather than spend the money on prefabbed ones when its not exactly necessary.
so I am still waiting on my parts to show up and the new flanging tool I ordered ....then I can get started on it and get the body work done and out of the way.
in the mean time ,I am swapping in a new motor in my 99 f150 daily driver pick up .....got the truck dirt cheap with a knocking engine.
I am not sure that I will have the duster "done" this year but I will try to get a bunch done on it so basically all that will be left to do to it will be paint and odds and ends here and there....all depends on cash flow.
but within the month I should be updating this thread again on a more regular basis and I will be posting LOTS OF PICTURES AGAIN!!!!!!
so stay tuned guys!!!
