    A Body Road Trip Car

    Sometimes I ponder building an A body for long trips (and daily use). It would be a 2 door, 318 (gotta be a V8). I wouldn't mind a 273, if parts are still available. It would only be modified to increase mpg. It would be either a 4 spd w/ OD, or an auto w/OD. I'd prefer a stick shift, I...

    That's Right! It's a Duster!

    I took my Duster out for a spin this afternoon to test out my alignment and a few other things I did. A guy pulled up to me at a light and asked, "Is that a Duster"? I told him it was. The light changed (I was turning left.) before I could tell him that everybody guesses it's a Nova. I was...

    Drove My “New” Duster

    In 2008, I bought a 74 Dart Sport with a 198 slant, three on the tree, manual steering, manual brakes. Today, 14 years later, I drove it! Now it has a high compression 360, modified 727 and a 4.10 9 inch rear. I also changed the body to look like a early Duster. The test drive pointed out more...

    Cars That Got Away

    I just found photos of cars I had that got away. Mostly because who knew what they'd be worth. The Demon was mostly stock. A body man where I worked at the time helped me replace panels and he got it all straight. He wasn't known for paintwork, so he had me bring someone else in to spray it...

    What To Use To Clean Steering Wheel

    It's from a 74 Dart Sport. How do I remove that whitish-like stuff from the "grain", or whatever it's called? I've used Super Clean, Prep Solv and lacquer thinner. Nada.

    Weight Removal Thread

    Anyone know if there's an existing thread where I could list the weights of some things I've replaced? Searched, couldn't find one.

    Nova

    I haven’t had a Mopar on the road since the 80’s. However, I’ve read on here many times that they get called Nova’s, Chevelle’s, etc. The other day my neighbor stopped in my garage while I was working on my Duster. He said, “Oh man, is that a Nova”? I guess GM did some good marketing. I...

    Can't Sell Parts

    I've had a Valiant/Duster bolt on hood w/ Harwood type scoop and a pair of later Dart Sport/Duster doors on CL for a while. The hood, over a year for $150, the doors for a couple months, for $100. I bought the hood from a FABO member to get a pair of glass fenders that came with it. The hood...

    Door VIN Question

    I'm painting my 74 Dart Sport. It has the original VIN tag on the dash. I'm putting 72 Duster doors on it, and I'm ready to prep the jambs. Should I remove the VIN on the 72 door, as to avoid future confusion?

    I'm cloning my 74 Dart Sport into a 70-71 Duster. What fender emblems do I need? Nova, Chevelle or? It'd be fun to mess with people.

    I Need Help Regarding A Michigan Title

    Is there any way to determine how many owners a vehicle with a Michigan title has had? I guess it wouldn't be iron clad, because some owners may not have it titled, and maybe it was titled in another state, too.

    Need Help W/ I.D.

    I have a chance to buy a '82 D-150 Pickup and I'm trying to figure what it's worth. I want it for the drive line (for my 74 Dart Sport), intending to junk the shell. It was hit hard on the passenger door. I haven't driven it yet, but it supposedly was driven daily and has been used a couple...

    Finding Prev Owned Cars

    Any sites out there that you can enter vin's into? Either to try to buy one back, or what I'd like to do, to provide a little history for the current owner. I think it'd be neat to find out where they are now. It could be very depressing, too. I saw one of mine at the drags a couple of years...
