Okay guy's here is a picture of my 74 Duster. This car is completely stock and I am almost complete with the restoration It has a 225 with a Holley 1-barrel and a 904 automatic trans with 2.76 gears out back. I added one of those cheap Chinese chrome valve covers last month and used a rubber gasket to seal and so far it leaks no oil at all. Here is a picture of it at at a local car show, where I won a trophy for best Mopar. Please be patient, I'm still trying to get the hang of it.

The above picture may be a little large, as I am still trying to get a hang of resizing.

I'll post some pictures of my engine and my other Chrysler vehicles.

Yay! I did it.

Cool!!! I'v always liked Dusters. By the way, I have that same grille hanging over my bedroom window. Me and my dad made it so that the lights work and everything (Muscle Car room).

Still couldn't tell what the 'bottle' was exactly... I'm assuming it's a speaker enclosure?
