Project Riddler's Ride - 1976 Plymouth Duster
The gas struts were purchased from eBay. They 9" closed, 15" extended and 90lbs each. They were purchased for the hood but they didn't work out. I'll go back to that another time.
The bottom ball is bolted in the hole on the pinch weld. I'm not even sure what those holes are for but there perfect. The tops have brackets screwed into the brackets. Once I have the latch in the trunk will open itself once the latch lets go. Just how I want it.
The fuel tank was designed by tincup and myself. whitetrash (I think) builds them. It's a perfect tank for me. I've sent a few guys to them and I know Mark from Peaks Dashes ordered one up as well.
