PS John have you heard from Ed(Max Wedge)? how's he doin'?
Hi Ken. We just experimented with that Duster for a couple of years
at a couple of AHRA tracks (old class Formula 2 C/HR). Ran it until the
engine broke a rod and about sawed itself in half. Removed the lettering
and put mufflers on it with a warmed over 383 and Denny drove it a
couple of times but the leaf-link wasn't too street friendly.
Remember that this was 74-76 and the high performance street scene
was in limbo. Sold the Duster and the black Hemi Roadrunner to a guy
named Roger Green from Arkadelphia, Arkansas. Always wondered what
happenned to those cars.
I haven't heard a word from Ed. with the accident and the closing of
Bill and Rita's store that area's been very quite. I'll ask Paul again; he
emails me regularly.
Note to all: Ken is a friend from another forum (diecast) as well as a
fan of this stuff.
