72 duster Build progress
The stuff I ordered from summit already arrived ,only took one day!.
BUT..... There was only 6 bumper bolts and I ordered a set of 24.... So I called them and got that straightened out and those should be here at the beginning of the week.
Check out the new exhaust tips!
They were a little pricey but they are exactly what I wanted and very nice quality and will look great on the car.
Being that my duster has had the springs relocated 3" in on both sides and I routed my exhaust on the out sides of my leaf springs unlike how factory they came between the leafs and tank......it ended up offsetting my exhaust a couple of inches towards the outside of each side of the car versus factory exit position. So these new tips I got are a right and a left tip which has an offset inlet and corrects the fact that my exhaust on the car is offset....so it makes the tips appear to exit I the factory location. The tips are 2.5" inlet ...2.75"x6" exit opening and they are gibsons, I recommend them to anyone else that has a similar exhaust set up to mine.
And More pictures as promised of the paint work.
Great color match by the way
From when I was installing the filler panel,latch support and head panel
.....haven't put the other new headlight in yet, I put the one in to get an idea of how it would look. I like it.
Tell me what you guys think!. Stay tuned because there is more to come!.
