A different perspective on "THE BLACK GHOST" by UTG.

It isn't cheap these days so, why not start a project with a fairly decent foundation that isn't a rust bucket that needs everything just to go down the road.

Both of my Dusters, ‘73 Cúda & ‘79 Magnum are in a run and drive condition minus the drive trains being built for them.

The Dusters are the worst needing full floors and trunk.
The Cuda needs outside body panels.
Magnum needs rust repair. It was my every day driver for a decade or so.

The Dusters will get raced, not restored. Restoration is not my thing.
The Magnum will get fixed as far as my ability allows.
The Cuda is in limbo at the moment. It needs a lot.

It costs more to restore a basket case than it does to save money and buy a turn key car....

True! But a junker is get in and drive… or in my case, just enjoy or fix a little to race. No basket cases here.

No one I know is doing it, guys with heaps, they just sit they don't get driven...

If a guy with a car just lets it sit, be it a triple mint on mint original or restored car or a rust bucket, it might as well be a P.O.S.
