I have owned this Duster Twister for the last 17 years. It was bought new by Mrs. Wellan from Bellevue Washington. She was 51 when she bought it on October 1 1971. She passed away in 1997 and my Father in law and I purchased it from her son in law in 1998. She kept it garages or car ports and I have had it in storage in my pole barn for the last 17 years. Its had one repaint in the mid seventies when there was some damage to the top edge on the drivers side fender and corner of the hood. The shop replaced the drivers side fender and repaired the corner. There is no damage at all to the inner supports. She said she was glad to have it painted as the flat black hood and strips where a bit "sportier" than she liked. It has the original mileage of 37k. It was being driven on the original Goodyear power cushion white wall tires when I bought it. I kept one of them when I changed them over to radials. I have the broadcast sheet that was under the rear seat. I have replaced the intake manifold gaskets ( motor was spotless inside) and points and rebuilt the carb. It runs like it left the factory. The front brakes had leaking wheel cylinders which I replaced with new correct number matching nos pieces. I also replaced the front brake shoes with nos and had the drums turned. The rears are original. It stops perfect. They are power drums. All glass is original to the car and is like new. The windshield is flawless with no rock chips or damage. Headliner is nice just a few small holes. Seats and all the interior is original. Underside of the car has just light surface rust. All suspension parts are original even the shocks. I had the muffler replaced with an nos unit a few years ago. The original alternator I had sent off for refinishing and returned. A paint job and some re-chroming of the sport mirrors and bumpers due to some light pitting is all it need. Very very easy restoration.
