The Duster we run was run as a 70 AVS package for 7 years or better with a 71 grille. The at Reading one year it was brought up and I was told to change the grille before the car came back out. What changed after all those years I do not know. I changed the intake and carb to a 71 TQ rather than the grille.

Alan and Mark are correct. As a 1970 model, the weight break is 8.65 which is a natural B car. He could move up to A, but not AA.

A few years ago at Vegas Nationals......Danny came up and stated
one of my competitors in N/SA said I had the wrong grille for the year Dodge truck. I had to go on Craigslist and find several 86 dodge trucks for sale and print the pictures of the trucks. He then looked over the truck to see if grille or brackets had been modified to make the grille fit...It had not been and I was allowed to run. Every time we change engines in our Demons from 71 to 72 we change the darn grilles now!

The Nova thing has been going on for years. All of them pretty much look alike from 68 to 72, why start this now. As for what Marty or Greg would do is not important as they are not involved any more.

The 68 Nova had the key switch in the dash. 69 and up have the key switch in the steering column.

Relevance is a relative concept but facts are facts; right is right and wrong is wrong whether Marty is involved or not.

After posting above about my grille issue I noticed a D/SA Duster at Gainsville right now is being run as a 71 with a 70 grille. Go figure.
