'71 Duster 340

[Custom Mike]

Thanks Gene, it was build for a buddy of mine, he came up with the idea and I made it happen for him. I did the body work way back in 2007, sent it to him, then begged him to send it back so I could build it in 2012!

Now about the side windows....I wish they had an actual latch and opened, but it's just a straight pin cut off and a hole drilled in the window, I'm not that good! I know someone here has done an actual functioning latch on one of these kits, but I can't remember who it was,

This is a nice period kit and you have done a great job so far --- keep up the excellent work!!!!

Thanks Bill! I'm working on a altered Fiat at the moment, as soon as that's finished I'll be back on the Duster, I think? You know how that goes!

Very cool build! Small block, 4spd. 6 Bbl A body's ALWAYS get my attention .....

As for your dash dilemma, drill a pair of small holes through the sides of the interior tub on either side where the dash slips in. Line up the dash and stick a sharp pencil in the holes. Remove the dash and drill matching holes. Ideally your drilling holes the size of what ever your going to pin it with, be it plastic or metal. Slip in your pins and your done. :-)

John, It would be a beautiful thing to own 1:1! Thanks. The problem is that I've messed up the tabs on the side of the dash making it hard to line it up correctly, but , I think I'm going to be able to do it. I gotta finish my Altered Fiat first, Mouse power baby!
