Modified Eliminator Wars in the 70's

A couple of things I would like to do to the Leal Duster but I can't:

1. Section that big goofy front bumper. On our street versions we always
take about three inches out of them and pull them in tighter to the body.
(see pic of the innocent looking green '73 with the 472 Barton Hemi).

2. Paint the engine compartment white (like a Sox & Martin car). Chrysler's
(Mr. Hoover's?) edict was to paint it black - maybe to hide changes?

For whatever reason we will not deviate from the original specification.
