This is what the 340 looked like at 144,000 miles. Lots of grime!  I drove it until March 1981 and it sat in storage until May 1983.	Anything that could leak probably did!
	I had about everything pulled off at this stage.  The LH fender apron had rusted / corroded through where the battery was located, so I purchased new aprons (both sides) through the local dealer.	All of the suspension is off at this point.  This was pretty much the "point of no return"!
	Started sanding and shooting primer (spray bomb).	The fender aprons are off.  Lots of sanding ahead.
	Overall, it really didn't turn out too bad with the spray paint.  The fender aprons were painted and then pop-riveted in.  The K-frame and all suspension parts including the rearend were sandblasted, primed, and spray bombed gloss black.	A poor man's paint booth.
	I had installed a Competition Engineering bolt-in 4 point roll bar.  Notice my handiwork on the package shelf.  Although not shown, I had installed some Moroso sub-frame connectors (bolt-in) at this point.	The 8 1/4" rearend.  It was built by Matt Johnson Performance in St. Louis. New Direct Connection (remember them?) 4.10:1's, new Sure-Grip, and all bearings, races, and seals.  There's those traction bars again! Notice the air shocks.  I had M50 x 14 tires on 10" wheels then.  I needed the air shocks for clearance.
	Trip to Jerry Bickel Race Cars Nov. 1995.  The Duster pretty much stayed the same since the photos above with the exception of the suspension being completed with all new "wear item" parts being replaced, painted, and installed.  Good thing too, I bought a new house in 1986.  Funny how the car takes a back burner when marriage, school, new house, career, and kids (3) enter the picture. The Duster has always had a spot in the garage though.  The 340 and 727 were put back in for weight purposes in setting up the back half and drive shaft length.
