Dean, What's the story on the Duster? Original color, options, etc.? Who's parting it?

Glad to see you are doing something good. For a moment there I thought you were to make it go away in the dumpster.

Geez the original floor pan looked solid, why did you remove it? Same question about the front frame rails?

You had to remove the entire floor pan just to replace the TB cross member? Why not replace just the one bad frame rail? Save that rad core support, it contains the cars Seq VIN number stamping......

Sometimes its easier just to replace the whole floor then to butt weld in a bunch of patches. Especially with the availability of full floor pans.
