My newly purchased project
Well,after almost 2 years of Ebay and internet searches,ironicly I discovered this gem in a field just 10 miles away from my house! :blob:
Its a 72 Duster with a slant 6 and I was more than happy to plop down the $900 for her.It even has the factory wheel jack,spare tire and owners manual and warrany info.It's pretty solid other then the usual rust on the rear quarters,common on these Dusters.The floors are very solid and the trunk is solid,with only minor surface rust(i'll post pics soon)Im not sure why the timing cover was removed but I am going to see if she will fire up and see if the Slant 6 is damaged.I'm sure it will be replaced with a V8,but i,ve had numberous people telling me to restore it to factory(with the 6)
Thanks for letting me share this and i'll update if any progress.
