Re: Former Car Craft Duster on CraigsList

I used to have tha issue...was hashed as hell, sitting at what used to be an old gas station?


What is it with you and old derelict Dusters, DF?

;D

The Orange Duster was still the coolest one by far...if only the 4-speed hadn't been fubar'd.

Re: Former Car Craft Duster on CraigsList

I likely have the issue; can you narrow it down to a year?

Re: Former Car Craft Duster on CraigsList

Dave, you must be getting old because your memory is fading! It was Mothers who did the buff job and the Rally wheels came with that Slant Six notchback Barracuda I had, the one with the solid bondo quarter panel. This was a clean car and one of the few I had that actually turned out somewhat profitable. It looked pretty sharp after the weeekend buff-and-stripe makeover. When I got the car, the motor had 4 or 5 holed pistons from overheating. I pulled a junkyard shortblock and then found out the head was warped and all the valve seats were shot, so I got a used head from Steve Magnante and it ran mint after that. I made the run up to Sacramento for the Slant Six club drag race and there are some shots of me camping out next to it in a sleeping bag. It was a nice around town driver and even my wife drove it once or twice. I think I sold it to that guy for $2200.

No matter which car or truck it was whenever I sell something it is rare that I didn't have at least a twinge of remorse, but to see it up for sale by someone else later is even worse. That thing would be a great driver.

Re: Former Car Craft Duster on CraigsList

June '99, pg. 68. That's crazy, since I just asked about this car in the Cheap Thrills Dart thread in the Gen. Disc. forum.

I hope the deal works out, Dave.

Re: Former Car Craft Duster on CraigsList

Deal? No Deal? I probably shouldn't ask, since you're giving away the Javelin. ;D
