After a 10k miles Trip from Portland to Switzerland and several issues with a first mechanic decision, it finally found it's way on the road.
Bought the car from a guy who inherited this nice a-body from his grandma after she bought it in 1972.
this car was abandoned at a body shop and was eventually sold to a Chevy guy in a package deal. I bought it as a shell from him and began the restoration / resto mod.
This is the reconstruction of a 1974 Duster. This car was purchased in 1979 when I was 19. I am now 59 and retired and am proud to say I still have my first car. This is the second customization of this car, the first being in 1983.
Collection of photos, of my Duster.
1972 Duster with a 360 and 904. It has an 8.25 rear end with 3.55 gears and a SureGrip. It's not perfect, but it's fun and reliable.
The 360 has some mild work done to it, with aftermarket top end w/ a Comp Cam
