Thanks, I always like the lightning rod shifter and when I ran across Kilduff shifters I was hooked, I know its not a Mopar thing and It's very Non-traditional and that's why I wanted it.

That is what this hobby is all about.

Agreed! I love seeing Lightning Rod shifters. The 84 Hurst Olds was so cool since it used those shifters.

I really never liked the size of the front brake calipers (too small) so I decided to upgrade to six piston, there 9.5" compared to 7". Now I'm happy. Better pic to follow.

It's been a few month's since I updated ....I've been pluggin' away on the wiring, there is finally light at the end of the tunnel. Also I've got the center console mounting worked out, I have to make another shifter plate to tighten up the gaps.

I picked up the Radiator from the local Radiator shop and then painted it with Eastwood Satin Radiator paint and assembled everything hopefully for the last time and bolted it in.
I like the finish and overall look especially with the Black hose ends. I also picked up a set of Hi-lo horns and decided to mount behind the left headlight bucket since like everything else I wanted them hidden...mission accomplished. Enjoy

Thanks for the compliment but I'm done for a while after this one get done...actually one of my Buddies asked me the other day "what's next" I told him the only car I would build would be my old 71"Cuda if I could get it back...maybe he'd want to trade if I pulled up in his driveway once the Duster is done .
