I’m still digging the traction bars on the Scamp. I had a set of traction bars on my Duster back in the 1970’s.

Yeah scamp ain't gonna get cut up. Too nice of car. Was fun dropping motor in for awhile to tear street up abit. My ole duster coming out of retirement. Just getting health and divorce settled. I lost alot of nice cars and bikes in divorce. Had to sell ALOT! Some may of been thru same. Sucks after a 25 year marriage but that's life. Sometimes it beats you up pretty good.

Yo 426 since you are right there in Kansas are you going to Mopar Max in Iowa late August? Several of us from FABO will be there. Great chance to meet. We always have a great time when we meet face to face. Many of us on here have been racing together and apart for years. We swap parts with each other, fetch, tote and deliver as needed. Typically a common fee is a dog and a beer next time we meet at the track. Except for JPar he likes Mountain Dew! I would love to see your Duster rock.

there you go i'm the slowest stroker , had 11 sec bikes and this car ain't no 11 sec car , will never cut mid 10's i would need great traction for that , then the 8.75 would probably spit it's teeth and gears at the line

Cool. My nitrous motor will SCREAM in ole duster. About time to get her out... LMAO As you say " Get your junk ready ". You got plenty of time. I be in Oregon a month-

My junk is always ready!.. now if you're going to drive your car all the way out here I think I would be a little obliged to meet you at the track if you wanted to. I keep in mind that's a long way to go with your car to not get much of a challenge. You're the one who misconstrued what I was saying about another member and taking it upon yourself and your massive ego and getting offended by something that you completely misconstrued because you have no experience with this forum whatsoever... if you did you would know a couple of years ago I cut my roll cage out I sold my slicks and skinnies I swapped out my 410 gears for 355 I took the plastic race seats out and put in a full interior with carpet. And if you look on the AC and heating part of the forum I'm in the throes of installing AC in the car... But yeah go ahead and drag your car all the way down here to beat me by a second or two down the track if you'd like lol again I feel obliged to at least come down and give her a shot...
I could name a half a dozen people and some of them you've already been talking to that would give you a much better run for your money a lot closer to you... Probably take your money lol...
 
Cat got my tongue LOL that probably got a chuckle out of everyone that read it...

Maybe so? My junk just street races. No track please. My duster straight up 2750 lb back halfed Dana 60 with 4:56' s. Hughes 4500 stall with nitrous. Nothing too elaborate. Sis wants me to bring it anyway. Guy has Camaro in neighborhood I'm gonna wax-

Tell you what. I'd love to meet fellow Mopar folks. Next year when I get to sister's house in Eugene we can meet and I'd even let you take duster for a run. If you still wanna run em we can do it then. How's that sound? And nothing personal but I don't call anyone sir. I quit that in early 80's when I got out of military. Veterans joke-
