    FAIL right out of the package.

    LIke the old 76 Duster I bought a couple years ago. The oem ECU had ALL the back side insulation melted away long ago, but it ran perfect. I bought a new ECU to carry for a spare. OK... I should find another old 50 year old ECU to carry for a SPARE!! :rofl: :steering: :thumbsup: :BangHead...

    How did I do

    Am I crazy or is this project Duster way overpriced?

    Its like the guys that swear their car only has 26,833 miles because that is what shows on the odometer! But there is surface rust and rust that took out the frame, but I agree... Rust is still rust. Heck, I am so old, I remember when no one wanted a original 340 Duster because it was a...

    Am I crazy or is this project Duster way overpriced?

    I have had many 70-2 Dusters over the years as many if us, but those year cars as projects, around our 4-5 state area have dried up and IF you find one, they are even more stupid priced as 99% of all the projects out there anyway. Just life. Last year I was seriously searching for a 73 up...

    Dodge Lancer owners

    The thing about these models is they never sold that many when new and 99.9% have been crushed. The ones that weren't crushed sat outside for 60odd years and have rotted into the ground. Most people consider them "homely". (I like them) Is what it is.

    Am I crazy or is this project Duster way overpriced?

    1. Her son is learning body/paint work in prison. 2. If a tornado takes out the mobile home, the whole family can live in the RoadRunner. 3. Back in the 80s, 90s especially I have seen this situation many times. Sometimes even an old hemi car missing the hemi and vin and trim tags. Ok.... so...

    Should my 1974 Duster have a hood - to - radiator support gasket?

    Even my Fords use such seals, I bet to help air flow to radiator. Ford ones are cheap...the Mopar ones might not be! :BangHead: :poke:

    Steve magnante's 1962 dodge dart police car

    I am thrilled to see the "old car community" coming to Steve's aid. All we ever hear these days is negative and political BS and slanted news about everything in this world. I certainly do not know Steve personally, I just have always assumed him to be one of us old car loving guys, trying to...

    Once a guy told me I was a flipper, since in the last 50 odd years many old Mopars have passed thru my hands.....I replied I guess I could be called that, but I have dragged many an old car out of the dirt and saved it for someone. If I made a $ it went in to save another. Once a guy called me...

    273 Commando - UTG

    Ole UT leaves himself wide open for criticism, discussion, ridicule...maybe that has always been his plan? I admit I have never been a UTube guy, but I believe Tony started it all with maybe trying to tell young guys they can build old cars that run without high $ parts. Maybe RoadKill gave...

    Over the years...I have referred to UT as FABO's "kickdog" as stale humor. Actually he is someone that people love to spend time hating, but like the guy said, "bad publicity is even good publicity!" It pays the bills!

    ^^I certainly do not know Steve personally, but like clementine^^^ says, I bet Steve is a real standup guy that deserves his many fans to come to his aid. Just a lot of people with small contributions can change this mans life back to as much as normal as possible. As I have already...
