A while back I was asking what color to go with on my 71 duster wedge clone and after hearing what you guys were telling me to go with I decided to go black and I'm glad I did. Here's a few pictures I'll add more as I go through it. I'm getting ready to paint the hood, trunk lid and one of my fenders, still looking for nice drivers side one and sharktooth grill. I'll then detail the underside and the drive train. Should be a cool little driver.

I think you'd be real wise to stick with those nice clones and get rid of that heap with the hole in the hood and no top. Those cars are worthless now!

Duster is looking awesome. 71 340 Dusters are my favorite A-body. I had a Burnt orange one with buckets, console. Wish I would have kept that car.

Thanks, I plain on going with body color black steel rims with a set of polyglas white lettered 14" tires on it with a new set of dog dish hub caps. New carpet and new headliner, package tray and drivers side seat cover.

I'm guessing it was a vinyl top car and the top was "deleted"? It still has the trim on the lower front windshield pillars. Are those 70 style A body buckets?

I was just going to ask the same thing about the vinyl top trim near the front windshield.

And yes, those are 70 Seats -- same seats I have in mine! I like them better then the 71's with the inserts

Gorgeous Duster though man, please post pics with the 340 wedge hood!

The Duster looks great. I have been kicking around the idea of triple black on mine also. After seeing how good yours looks, I am sold. Truely a sweet looking ride.

It's a 70 duster that I'm doing up like a 71 v24 duster(wedge 340 callout on the hood with black hood treatment) that's why is has the chrome on the piller like the vinyl top cars do. It seperates the satin black from the gloss black. It's actually a good way to tell the clones from the real ones, I thought it was a nice little touch to add since I had them kicking around. I'm been trying to decide if I want to change the seat covers over to the 71 style as I like the style of these ones as well. I thought hounds tooth would look pretty cool in it but these ones actually match the car alittle better with the dark grey inserts. I was doing this car up to sell to get the extra money to pay off a small loan and finish my charger but I think I'll just sell my 79 ramcharger instead as I dont think I'm going to be able to get rid of it. Thanks for all the nice comments .

That's funny, I based my Duster off of that same ad!

As for the seat covers, I think an orange/black interior would be insanely bad [Edited by Moparts - Keep it clean] in that car! Triple black with orange interior, way too cool!
