I go into a buddies shop and see a nice Duster. Or so I thought

It's the re-body lie that bothers me. Trying to doup someone into thinking it is really something it isn't is a low class scumb bag move.

Re-body a '73 to an '70 and NOT trying to hide it is different. It's called a tribute car or an "What if" version.

Hack work, like that fabulously done cross member is sad and worth a poke. I would like to know if there were any mods to the tail lights to disguise the gear even further.

I would have rather seen a well done custom job and a bit engine with hood call outs than this.
