From the Fuzz Duster...

I built it as a plain Volare,  a bit of a street killer.

I replaced the tiny kit engine with a resin copy of a 71 Duster engine and swapped in a resin 8 3/4" rear instead of the blob of plastic that came with the kit. Fireball cop car wheels, a Fireball Holley, tires from the parts bin, headers from a Hemi, resin mufflers, clear headlights and park/turn signal lamps are just some of the pieces used to make it look better.

Lots of filling, scribing and sanding to make the body look like it should. I'm happy with it, though it almost became One With the Wall more than a few times. ;)

Comments always welcome.

Nice clean looking build. You put a lot of work into this based on what you had to start with but it was all worth it.

I like it alot!!! I'm glad to see it complete & not "One with the wall". That's how most of mine turn out, in more parts than I started with.

Nicely done!  I especially like the improved headlights and turn signals.

I always thought these cars had a lot of potential, as you've shown.  Kind of surprised that the 1:1 Mopar guys haven't warmed up to these more, especially considering the escalating prices of the older muscle era Molars.
