So how quick was the duster then ????

Ran 11.2 with a big 'ol bog off the line, it needed more convertor, would have run a 10 for sure, not bad for a 383 in those days....

Great pics Rob. My favourite car is, of course, the 69 Hemi Roadrunner next to my Satellite in the second pic. The one that Jim Wilson imported.

Youre not still thinking of cutting yours up are you? Just found this pic from the (I think) 86 Picnic..... More to follow when I've scanned the rest.

Loved that car

Great p9ictures Rob, gotta say, for those of us who were mere "kids" in those days, they are a real treat. I remember seeing some of those cars in CC and SM when I was a mere slip of a lad.

Thanks again for taking the time to scan and post.

Didn't realise you had that Duster Mitch! It's survived all these years without getting seriously molested, be a bit of a shame to cut it up now, still it's your car and you can do as you wish...

Lived over by my parents for a while near Huntingdon, the then owner took me out in it once.
