Father-Son 1974 Duster Project

I had Thrush side pipes on my first car. It was a 69 Barracuda. Had a bone stock 318, 2 bbl when I got it.

I just hacked up the Y pipe and rigged them up with flexible pipe! I didn't have time to do it right, but as it turned out I had enough time to do it twice. They looked and sounded cool but I would never have side pipes or even headers for that matter on a street cruiser. The ground clearance issues alone made me crazy.....But that was 37 years ago!

Back to today, I was able to finish cleaning the bay and get it primed this evening.

Color goes on this weekend. The Rallye Red can be seen peeking out from the bottom in the 2 following pictures.....
