A-Bodies...Big Motors / New Hemi Duster - FINAL ASSEMBLY

-
Bill, HOW IN THE HECK ARE YOU...... hope all is fine. We didn't make to Norwin Hills much this past year. I think twice. Just felt we needed a break from there. Didn't see you at the Nats this past August. Thanks for the comments.
Feeling like I/We are jackin HemiDenny's thread.

Im sure he doesnt mind (much) lol... I am good, just been real busy with work and whatnot.. I was at the Nats, I was at the A-body tent several times, but never caught ya there. Tranny went in the Dart last month, so come spring, I will be redoing the driveline.. i have another 360 thats gonna get worked over a bit, another 727, and im going from .355 to .391 gears... Cant wait for next season...
 
NEVER throw anything away anymore. More than 10 years ago
Weeb drug out of a big puddle....in a woods....in the middle of a field.

It broke in half when the roof was cut.

Rear bumper (now rechromed) is on the back of Denny's silver Duster.

The 8 3/4 rear end housing is in Denny's silver Duster.

The stick-shift steering column is in Denny's silver Duster.

The bucket seat frames are in Weebs green Duster.

Got a complete set of tinted glass, all of the stainless trim, 340 K-member,
LCA's with matching factory sway bar and both rust-free no guard rail
front doors complete.

Bet that car was a looker when it was brand new!

hey!!!!..I thought that stuff was "fresh off the farm"....I guess more like "fresh out of the field".
 
amazingly....the car my tail panel came off of was in worse shape than the black Duster
 
Weeb doesnt throw anything away!

neither do I.....I just box up my leftovers (car parts) and give em to Weeb!

if I need something, I always know where it is....somewhere in his basement or garage
 
Heck no....

I'm a hot rodder...and like Jesus....I love em all!
 
You must have quite a used parts inventory.

It's funny you guys mentioned this.

Just last night I discovered, much to my amazement, that Weeb had
never been through Ross's build thread (no PC at home, you know).

I sat him down and started at the beginning. You don't have to go too
far until you are blown away at all of the things that Ross has going on
with that build.

After a couple of hours and picking his jaw up off of the floor, Weeb only
had one question. He looked at me in earnest and asked "I wonder what
Ross does with all of the stuff he throws away?"

I rest my case.
 
you know?.....come to think of it....I think he picked a few of my old girlfriends.......never mind

Ahhhhhh...those were the days!!!,
 
"I wonder what Ross does with all of the stuff he throws away?"

A lot of it isn't thrown away, I have a nice collection going several exhaust tips, tow hooks.....ect. The Air Force rear package tray I gave away and is hanging on someones garage wall and the 73' hood scoop got scrapped.
 
Kinda slow tonight so it's time to post some widely varied misc pictures from
my archives to evoke old memories and solicit some smart a$$ comments.
Everybody likes pictures; right?

A lot of car for a goofy (me) 16 year old....we are lucky they didn't get wrapped around a telephone pole.
