Posting this for a good friend. Long time racer. 74 years old and getting rid of some of his treasures. PM me if interested and I'll put you in contact with him. "This 440 “ Kent Ritter short block From my ’65 Plymouth is for sale . I’m going back to my 427” A-8 WoO aluminum short block. Here’s...

We shot my sons Duster with B5 about a year ago. If you listen to the all the advice above it should turn out fine. B5 is the best color in Ma's book of colors ever IMHO.

Agree totally concerning the topcoat with flake or pearl. Gravity is also a factor. Don't paint a door lying flat on a stand with flake or pearl. It will flow differently than if it were hung or placed in its natural position as fully assembled.

Snapped this pic last Saturday as my son was heading out to hit the streets (and try to stay out of trouble:rolleyes:) on a beautiful evening here in Colorado. I thought it was cool. I thought I would share.

No worries. Yes, we have the knobs, face plate and heater hose bracket that is mounted by the alternator but they are in service on our Duster and are not for sale. :lol: The buttons should clean up to a point. You can see on the far right button in the picture where I scratched my fingernail on...

I have not bench tested it but my guess would be that it does work. The low price explains my inability to answer that question. Everything off of this car is about as virgin as it comes. Hell, we're still running the original engine. As for the wires, no, not cut up at all. All original...

Cleaning up the shop to make room for the next project and I have an assortment of parts from a 72 Duster. All parts are OEM from the car but sat outside for 23 years before we rescued it. Some parts are in better shape than others. Would rather get them to a good home. If they don't sell...

Hello R&D, sorry for the slow reply, I believe you spoke with my son, we still have the note here that you left him on his windshield. This is supposed to be a joint account between he and I but he rarely comes on here. His car, his nickle, I'm just his unpaid goon. If I remember correctly we...

Not at all. It get's dusty now and then but nothing a blast of air and a damp rag won't clear up. Ours still looks like the day we laid it down. Hard as nails.

You're not kidding. Ours had pretty deep surface rust on the low areas but not rotten. We spent a day or two wire wheeling the **** out of it then painted the rust areas with POR 15, then Raptor liner over that. If you're going to paint it like factory, it's a **** ton more work. We cut a corner...

We did our first show with it last weekend. It was an open street show, about 300 cars there. Jr. had a blast, as did I. Best comment of the day, "Why does it have three pedals"? I had to elbow Jr. to keep from laughing out loud. I responded, "It's a millennial anti theft device".

We had better make it soon. Nate is off to the USMC in August.

Sorry to crack open an old thread fellas, but it was asked above if Junior's senior pics would be taken with the car. As this is graduation week it got me thinking about it. This is the one that went in the year book.

Pretty much what we did. Looks good at 20 feet. Can't wait for CI to start producing the new one.

Great job you guys. That thing has come a long way. What did you end up doing for a grill? We're still on back-order for the non-sharktooth here from CI.

Sounds a little restricted to me. Manifolds I assume? What size exhaust did you put on it?

I wasn't asking, I was stating. I know where it is and how to do it. You forget you're walking on ground we walked a year ago. Jr. got boobed flashed lat week while cruising our 72. I have driven some cool $hit over the years and can can honestly say that has never happened to me. Get that...

Nice job Jim. She looks pretty happy. What a sweetheart, car and daughter. LMAO at at the blue LED dash lights, we did the same thing. I also hate that damned door buzzer. We're thinking of disabling ours. What stereo receiver did you put in it, Retro Sound? When are we meeting at 4 corners?

To be honest, I don't know why anyone wants one unless you're going for the "correct" look. Ours below, we don't need one either.

Are you looking for a spare? How about $35 with free shipping to Roseville MI.

Yea, I just need to get it gone or it goes in the dump.

Bump, Make me an offer, I can't be insulted.

Charcoal canister from a 72 Duster, includes the mounting bracket. $50 or make me an offer plus the ride from 80524.

I have said it before and I'll say it again, 150,000 btu and 1,600 square feet is a wonderful thing. Seasons? What seasons?

An old rule of thumb when restoring cars. Never scrimp on the parts that show. If you have $25K in that machine you have made some poor choices along the way my friend. :poke:

One last bump, make me an offer, going to the dump.

Looking good Jim. Tons o' work for sure. Da-Haaang that AC heater box is massive! Is that original? I'm glad we didn't have to deal with one. We had enough trouble re-building the non-AC box the way it was. BTW, your suggestion to move the striker out on our driver side door alignment problem...

What did you clear the dash frame with? It's looks a little too glossy compared to OE.
