duster gone at last

Post by TrevD »

finaly said goodbye to the duster :cry: , ive owned her for 7 years but for the lasy 2 years she has just sat on the drive collecting dust. her new owner already has plans to carry out the big block conversion :thumbright: ( as i intended to do) hopefully he will find his way onto here and keep us informed of the progress.

she will be well looked after, the new owner is/was into AC cobras, he builds the nice stainless headers and exhausts for them (so if anyone wants custom stainless headers he is your man) he was bored with his cobra, nothing to do to it so he wanted a project to play with, he assures me he wont race it :P like i belive that if hes going big block :thumbright:

Go on my son! Depending on what type of chassis jig you have, they are usually dead easy to sort, give me a shout if you are stuck and I'll trundle down. ;)

The old Ruster as it has been christened is safely locked in my workshop awaiting some TLC, and a tad of welding.

If all goes to plan the old girl should be ready for a few shopping trips some time next year :)
