Project Dusterbd

[Nevis]

Been working on this project slowly for a year now, its a 1970 plymouth duster. Just wanna show some progress pics and the great condition of paint and body.

Overall body shots





Bought it this colour, no clear coat but in great condition





Body is pretty straight too, not much cheese

Interior mockup, still have to cut and fit carpet, position and bolt down seats



Made my own rear pad with wood and stereo carpet



The 340ci, 455hp powerplant.



Recently dropped in, no tranny yet


The 904 tranny is half built, waiting for thrust washers. The 8 3/4 rear end is partially built, just have to set backlash and paint a pattern. Have to get the front disc brakes on, getting a sump welded in the tank. Still have lots of small and big things to go.

Well Im still not done yet even though its 2 years later. You know how it goes. I had to bring it to a shop for the stuff I couldnt do in my garage. Heres a small update of the exhaust and interior

Small update

Engine is just about ready to fire up, and the wheels Im using.

Excuse the bad quality, its using a cell phone camera.





Just a reminder this is a budget build that an average guy would do, no crazy custom fabrication, just make it look
nice and go as fast as I can afford.
