    Changing front/rear bumpers on 1975 Dodge Dart

    I know this is a farily common mod, but I've found a nice '73 but dont care for those bumpers. Is it a big job to either replace them w/72 styles or even cut the big heavy bar our and bring the original bumper in closer- ie, remove that filler pan. How expensive would it be and is it worth the...

    fixing the inner fender behind the rusted out quarter

    They are just behind the rear wheel, patch panel for quarter is OK, but would one just cut up some tin for that area behind that is AWOL?

    mounting a glass hood scoop on a steel hood

    I know many say they always crack if glassed on a steel hood, but what about riveting- is there a method where the rivet head could be countersunk and covered?

    SLOWING down the rust monster..........

    I have a fairly rust free '72 Duster but the passenger side lower quarter has some bubbles. This is NOT a show car and I do not want to cut and weld at this time, but again, I was told that if one could seal BOTH sides of the sheet metal that the rust process would slow down due to a lack of...

    Do you need door seals- for the door jamb area?

    I made one temporarily and it actually looks fine- I found a used one very reasonable from another member, but this will give others an options vs buying a new one for $42 and shipping. I used an old truck inner tube to cut it out and the 3 mounting screws plus some adhesive around the edges...

    Minor bubbling on rocker

    My 72 Duster is pretty solid, but not rust free. Its not showy and thats what I wanted this time. Its had some moderate panel patches (lower quarter and taillight panel) and I see some minor bubbles forming on the rockers- mainly just behind the back of the door. My question is that I'd like to...

    Taillights for '72 Duster

    UPDATE: I just finished some research on this swap and have decided that I will most likely stay with the 71 tail panel- just too much money and trouble to switch back. With the tail panel shadow stripes, the two lights do not look that much different. I am in the process of buying a '72 had...

    What mods can make a '73 Duster Grill look better?

    Dont think the Sharkstooth fits with that hood, but has anyone come up with something cool? Guessing one could fit a glass 6 pack style hood and then use the older generation grill?

    Duster front grill swaps.......

    Looking at a '73 but like the 70-72 grills better- especially the Sharkstooth. Will they bolt in a 73 or is the bumper area different. Can that be altered w/out too much trouble?

    Anyone tried to rustproof they car?

    Like spraying Rustoleum or POR15 into the A/B pillars and rockers? How could you attempt to clean inside/dry it out before?

    72 Duster needs a drip molding

    Discovered I am missing the drip/roof molding on the drivers side of my Duster. I assume these are side specific but wondered what years would work. Anyone have the part I need? George in Tallahassee

    Just mounted a steel hood on the 72 Duster

    There appears to be a larger gap between the bottom of the front edge of the hood and the top of the Sharkstooth grill. Is there supposed to be some sort of filler piece attached to the hood or even the top of the grill/latch area? THis car came with a pin on glass hood, so I am in the dark...

    Mounting a dual snorkle Mopar scoop

    My scoop has been used and I am not satisfied with the holding power of the mounting screws that thread into plastic inserts in the fiberglas studs on the scoop. Was thinking about filling those studs with some sort of material that I could drill out to the correct size of the fasteners that I...
