DUKETONA update....

[alfanta]

Like some others, Im not a fan of the color combination, but it IS your car, I work at D&D classic in the design studio, I am helping customers choose color combinations. I think this would have been a better choice, but again, its your car.

AWESOME ! Now- can you add something with nipples to the car?
Seriously-getting ready to install the 9" DB Lincoln Versailles POSI rear-end with 3.00 butt gears.
The tyres will not hit the leaf-springs...and I can add 3" wider tire on each side !!!

[alfanta]

We took a road trip...
He understands now...

Dave  Day of Aluminum Head Welders in Auburn, WA. did a little magic on my old Lincoln Versailles DB Posi
rear-end going into the Duktona. He's setting up my Steel scattershield

-HEMI mill, which is coming in 30 days !!!
