oh ....and I went to start the duster yesterday....but after sitting for a few months and in the cold weather....it took its toll on the battery. got her to roll over a couple times and then the battery ran out . so I got to pop the charger on it and then she should fire right up.
I think one of the first things i am going to address is the rear end, I still have to put new u joints in the drive shaft and I have to true up the rear end some. and I am thinking of down sizing gears....Im thinking maybe 3.55's...havent decided yet exactly what I want to go with.....4.56 is just to much for what i plan on using it for. so if anyone is in need of a nice set of 4.56 gears for an 8 3/4 let me know and maybe we can work something out.
I also will be upgrading my wheels soon...so my rallys are up for grabs aswell.
I still have lots of little stuff to do yet...im going to finish of the trunk,mount tail lights,put bumper bolts in,put headlights in,restore grille,finish up a couple little interior pieces here and there,still need to wet sand and buff the top of the car....most of its trivial stuff. shouldnt take TOO long to get it all done once I get started on it. and I should be able to get a summers worth of driving out of it and finally get a chance to take it to a couple car shows!.
anyways, thats basically the plan. so stay tuned.
