72 duster Build progress

Whew! Just read this thread through the first 900 posts to just after the stripes were added. I've been building cars for 30 years and had a number of shops, but watching you build that in a little garage on a budget was realy refreshing to me. I'm actually looking forward to building the 73 we just picked up for the Mrs. I was so burned out on on building I didn't even want another car due to the expense and BS of having dealt with customers cars, I could care less if I never saw another old car again! Your approach to solving problems and repairing an old car with limited resources, is what made the car hobby in the first place. Long before TV crews and "7 day builds" on "reality" TV. Good job Jarrod, and thanks for reminding us what hot rodding is really all about, making the most of what you have and breathing new life into old metal.
