Pics of the Lonely Duster
Sure wish I had taken a before picture. Anyways, another "A" body saved from the crusher. Thanks for all the help from members.
74 Duster
Rebuilt stock 318 2bbl w/340 cam (Solo pull and install)
Rebuilt 904 trans (Brother In Law)
Rebuilt front end w/poly bushings (Ebay)
New interior and carpet (Ebay)
Headers and 2 1/2 duals - (JC Whitney)
New fuel Tank and sender (Ebay)
Cragar SS Rims (Craigs List find)
Rechromed Bumpers (Local Shop)
New Vinyl Top (Ebay, installed by me)
Many another parts I replaced but forgot by now (Autozone and Checker)
Vitamin "C" Orange Paint (by a local shop)
Initial cost for car $500
Parts and services $6000
For a cool car that I know every inch of now $6500
Rumbles nicely with cam and duals, good on gas, not a screamer but very enjoyable ride.
Not bad for a lonely guy in his garage with way too much spare time.
Future will hold a rebuilt rear end for obligatory wheel spins.
Thanks Again
