BBT Fabrications built this 1971 Plymouth Duster for owner Jordan Costello at their company in Mahomet, Illinois. Under the custom scoop is a supercharged 6.2 L Hellcat V8 making 600 hp (441 kW) to the wheels. From there power is transferred by a Bowler T56 Magnum six-speed manual transmission to a 9-inch rear end. The Duster rides on a Schwartz Performance G-machine chassis with Baer disc brakes. Inside the wells are Forgeline OE1 wheels (18×9.5, 19×12.5) with Plymouth Poverty caps and Diamond Back Classic tires. The car was a Top 5 finalist for Street Machine of the Year at 2025 Goodguys in Columbus, Ohio.
