Father-Son 1974 Duster Project

Captain, keep going with the body work and prep....
Here's what a someone said to me recently at a local car show when we talked about paint jobs, " Ya know, these things left the factory 40 years ago with single stage paint jobs...."
That's what's going on our Duster when she's ready. A few local body shops have quoted under a grand if we do most of the prep. I also bought some fenders from a fellow member who lives in the next town over and he painted his Duster in his 1 car garage last winter with single stage paint and it looks real nice. He took his time and he learned as he went. So you don't need to spend a fortune on paint.

My sentiments exactly.....
You keep up what you're doing on your Duster with your family. My kids are all grown now, but since my son bought his own Duster last month, we have "re-bonded" in a BIG way. We were always close, but now we talk on a daily basis as I've re-kindled my interest in my project, and he's planning his own! We hope to make a bunch of local shows and cruise nights in the future! I wish I'd had the time to do what you're doing when my boys were young instead of leaving my car under a tarp, but....better late than never, right? Anyway, you and your family are on a good path. Keep it up!:D
