The smoken340 Duster

" />It was brought to my attention, by our newest member, Swinger-Eh (Ron), that there isn't very many pictures of my car on here. So I thought that I, would post some. The first one was just after new paint and stripes. The next 2 are from the day that I bought the car. The rest are after new interior and suspension.     " />

Looks great Dan!

Nice car.

Thanks Dan   for the pictures !!!!    Looks Awesome !!!!  I think everyone  would agree, We all love pictures !!!!
The new interior looks great  , and the stance is perfect IMO . Well done !!!

Thanks guys. I love the old school stance as well. I have it sitting the same way that I would have when I was 17 years old. Every time that I drive it, I become a teenager again.

OH to be 17 again and know what we know now -  EH !!!!!     LOL   That's awesome DAN !!!   Enjoy every ride !!!

Yes how true on the 'if we knew 30 years ago what we know now'..

Great car Dan

Thanks Keith, a lot of time and money went into it just to reach this level.
Problem with being 17 and knowing what we know now, would certainly take a huge amount of value away from our cars. Because we all would have kept the ones worth money, that we let get away from us.

VERY TRUE !!!!    Dan

that sure is a very nice Duster black is my favorite color on one also .

Looking sharp Dan, really like the new interior. I dropped my ass end a bit to low, once the new 8 3/4 is in I will fix that. I like your stance, thats the way a muscle car should look imho.

Thanks guys. I appreciate all of the positive comments.
I'm the same as you Reg, I personally like the car to sit with that sort of stance. Thats how I would have had her sitting in the 70s. And this hobby is all about the memories, isn't it  ?

Sure is!!!

Looks like I am the only original owner on here. AM I??

You may very well be. But like myself I'm sure that we all love the cars that we have. Plus by waiting to buy the car this late in my life, it allowed me the option of buying the one I wanted, not just the one that I could afford. Money was pretty tight for me in the 70s, as I already had a wife and kids, to support.

If it was that I could only have what I can afford I would probably have, I would drive some kind of Chevy clunker...Chevy Acadian? or maybe a Chevette. I only paid a little over $4000 new and then a few mods. It does not owe me anything and I don't owe anything on it.

Unfortunately $4k probably wouldn't have bought the car that I would have ordered, if I had the money to do it back when my car was new.

Very Nice car Dan.

Thank you Sheldon. I tried making it a day 2 car, without going overboard.

The whole idea is to be able to drive them.

I no see pictures.
