Another new guy here
Found my project duster. Some of you may recognize it. I picked it up from @niceolddart Yesterday and after spending 17 hrs on the road I finally got it home. He got it from another member on here so it would be cool to know who that was aswell.
Not sure if any of you have tried to tow a duster backwards but that doesn't work very well. Learn from my mistakes After reloading it and taking the driveshaft loose from the rear end we finally made it back home with it.
Plans. Finish the body work. Find any missing interior bits and put it back together. Thinking a bored and stroked magnum 360 have to figure out a trans for that. Kind of want a 5 speed but not sure how to make that work just yet or which one to get. Paint I'm thinking black cherry pearl with matte black side decals it has a black interior already. Unsure on wheels just yet.
I'm thinking of doing an ifs and irs and subframe connectors aswell. Lots of money but it will be nice new and modern. Put in a vintage air system new dakota or something similar gauge pack. You know big 20 year build plans
Anyway enough jaw jacking. Here's some pictures. I'm open to discussion and insights from members who have done the suspension stuff if any of you have and what's the best way to go about it. I'm very hands on and mechanically inclined.
