Please feel free to point any errors I may have made, especially in the engine compartment. Known items to fix: 1) fuel filter and clamps 2) Scoops...thats for Scott  3) Extra clamp on heater hose 4) Need washer lines 5) Radiator cap (its got a temp gauge on it for insurance)

The alternator is a newer unit isn't it? The appearance differs from my late 71 built/dated 72 model.
That's an original washer bottle? The Repop's cap hole is posioned opposite (as per Scott's prior posts)
I believe the battery cable gets a white multi hole strap into the hole in the inner fender. The longer ones yearone sold in their kit are too long

No orange paint on the exahaust manifolds? Nevermind, I see a trace. Forementioned alternator, alternator belt, washer bottle, missing date codes and etc. on plug wires, wrong oil filter, no wheel well blackout, overall looks too clean and shiney (  ) Looks VERY nice Brent!  *did your battery tray have any blackout paint on it?

The only added "option" items on the car are the Tuff wheel & scoops.
And quarter window decals
Seriously though Brent, you did an impressive job on your car in record time, it's a very nice example, one of the best anywhere

Thanks Scott! That means a lot coming from you. Now get your Duster(s) done!! I probably would have put the slots on it if I could have found some decent sized 14" tires. But I'm really happy with OE look. Some 15" Ralley's (235/60 fr & 255/60 rear) will most likely replaced them eventually, giving it that stuffed look. The attention thats its goten so far has been really cool. Seems everyone has owned a Duster at least once.
