Hi everyone! This is my first car, a 1970 Plymouth Duster. It has a 318 c.i.d. small-block V-8 that as of now is all stock except for some repainted dress-up parts. It is an A-904 TorqueFlite 3-speed auto car. My awesome dad bought this for me in September of last year off eBay for $3000 (thanks dad!!!). Everything is pretty much original, except for the rear tires and hubcaps of course, which I added. The car is in great mechanical shape, and the only trace of rust is in the spare tire "tub" in the trunk. Soon I will be putting a double-roller timing set and ThermoQuad carb + '83 360 truck intake manifold. After that I'm going to save for a 2.5" dual-exhaust system with POWERSTICKS!!! Yeah! I'll keep it like that throughout high school while I build up a nice 360 c.i.d. engine, 8-1/4" or 8-3/4" rear end (3.55:1 ratio), and A-833 4-speed with Passon Hemi Overdrive gear kit. For the engine I'm planning to use mildly ported Magnum heads with heavily worked combustion chambers (Somender grooves, edge-radiusing) + whatever size Speed Pro slugs for around 10:1 comp., a somewhat-mild Hughes cam, TTI headers, CrossWind intake (with a little electric plenum heater I'll rig up to keep the plenum warm in cold weather), Edelbrock Thunder AVS 650 cfm carb, and other goodies. Some day I hope to fix up the body and paint it myself, I'm thinking a metallic blue/purple color. I also hope to add a Go-Wing and a flat-black fiberglass hood with dual hood scoops and a body-color center rib. Finally I'll top it off with a set of 15" Torq-Thrusts on some nice wide BFG Radial T/A's. As you can see I have big plans for this car, but I still don't have a stinkin' job yet, so it'll be a while. One of the first things I need to do though is fix up the interior; I need a driver-side door panel, a dash cap, and HEADLINER!!! It's still an awesome car though, and I LOVE IT!

P.S. More pics to come...

My huge-a$$ trunk and not-too-shabby original interior...

And the engine bay when I first got it. Soon I'll have up pics of it now with the repainted valve covers and air cleaner.
