Still working on thr car when time amd money allows. Dash is for the most part done. Still need some small stuff but thr bulk of the money is already spent on it.

Picked up a set of mint doors from a good local guy and i ordered my upholstery at mopars in tbe park. So that should be here soon. Also have the center section being put together as we speak. Going with a 498 case 3.55 with a clutch type sure grip for now.

Not much of an update but super stoked about my latest! I was searching through craigslist and stumbled on an ad for a 71 duster in indiana. Not sure why i clicked on it as it didnt seem like anything special but i did and while scanning through the pictures, i noticed the car had orange interior. I emailed him right away to see if hed sell the ultra rare orange arm rests and sure enough he did! I figured that these would probably never be found but i have them now. His duster had the high grade interior with rear arm rests but mine didnt. Got the set or 4 anyway. Thats all for now.

Legendary got all my upholstery here today. Probably take it all down to get covered here soon. Unfortunately, they sent the wrong door panels, i got the woodgrain, upscale one when mine should be the low grade.. Have to send it back..

Back in the early 90's my brother and I spotted a duster behind an old service station. I stopped in to check it out and it was a 71 twister. Damn, the sharks tooth grill was busted! Looked inside and saw the strangest interior I had ever seen. EVERYTHING was orange! Carpet, seats, headliner, door panels. I think the dash pad may have been black. I have never seen another all orange interior like that before or since.
The car was wrecked pretty badly. I scored a few parts off it. I should have saved that interior as I recall it being in really good condition.

The orange arm rests would have been a heck of a find! Been looking for 2 years!

Very cool build.
I had a 71 one twister orange on orange that had the full orange interior. Sold the car years ago. I have only seen one other one with the full orange interior. Most of them are black and orange. I do have the build sheet and fender tag still. The guy never came back for them.

This car had something that was black, I think it was the dash pad. The rest was ALL orange. Very strange but cool at the same time.

Upper door frames were flat black, black dash, seat backs, package tray, carpet and headliner. Door panels, seats and arm rests were solid orange

Mopar Mike, as mentioned above, there was no "All Orange" option, they ALL had black components. If yours was actually all orange someone likely dyed the black parts orange.

Speaking of your Dad, I met him at the Russo and Steele auction in Arizona this week. We talked for a while, he saw my 71 Duster in line and told me about yours. I didn't catch his name and I had someone asking questions about my car and he walked away.
