Picked up another Duster!
« on: June 16, 2013 - 06:26:34 PM »
Like I need another project!  :roll:  Picked up this `71 Duster shell, plain /6 car but fairly solid body. Came with disc brakes, 318/904 and fiberglass front end for $650. Plan is to use the fiberglass for my `70 Duster drag car, swap the metal fenders to the `71 which will eventually be done up and sold to make me some money. If I change my mind I can part it out for more than I paid so I really couldn`t lose.

That does look solid. 
Is the original color red?

I can't say that I have seen that front wheel configuration.  Was that an original option on the fender tag?   :bigsmile: :smilielol:

Seriously though, what is the pipe connected to? or how is it connected?
