So far I was able to pick up a set of Diamond pistons, I still need a Forged crank and rods...

Cool lookin ride.

It was made by my buddy who is a member on "For A bodies only" (FABO)
he has been building these for about 20 years and is getting ready to bring his products to the general public, As far as I am aware he only is making them for A bodies but may be open to making something for E bodies..his screen name is HemiDenny on FABO and yes he stuffs 426 Hemis into A bodie Mopars and makes them look factory.

Going to do a spoiler on the decklid? I like the idea of the front end swap to the earlier style Duster.

I guess the cardboard template kind of gave away the plan...I would like to design a molded in steel low profile lip but we'll see. Eventually I got to get this thing to the painter

I'll have to check it out. I've got a 67 fastback (A body) so his set up should do the trick.
How wide of a wheel/tire combo can you get up front?
That rear 4 link is the same route I'm headed, kinda based on the Ridetech/ Morrison stuff.
