Decisions...How to move forward on this

Damn Floyd...You lucky ba$tard :D:D:D.

I don't know what shape the 71' is in, but I can completely understand you going that route. My neighbor had a brand new Lemon Twist 70' 318 car. That thing lit up the whole neighborhood when it was clean...lol.

70' cars are my favorites of the Dusters, but even if the rails and pans are solid, that car needs a ton of work. Seeing the engine with the manifolds still on it brings a tear to my eye...lol.

I suppose you should let it go, unless you want to store it at my house.....even though I'm 1500 miles away :D.

Honestly, I don't know if it's worth the time and $$$ to bring it back to stock, but please make sure it goes to someone that will save it...modified, race or whatever. :thumbrig:

Kind of a good dilemma to have right? lol! My 71' is in great shape. I just put new legendary stuff inside it, rebuilt the trans and rear. Also has the shark tooth. It will get a repaint down the road to bring it up to snuff but it's an eye catcher. I have a thread on it somewhere...the 70' does need floor repair but the tails are solid as they can be. It was surprisingly solid for sitting like it is. The kicker for me was that engine with manifolds, kind of a hard one to find these days. If I don't sell it I will def make sure it makes it's way back on the streets to terrorize pony cars 😁 I do think a scamp would compliment my 71' though, lol! Maybe I'll put an ad in the for sale/trade in a couple of weeks once I'm able to get it rolling and some metal attached....
