Vehicle Description
1972 Plymouth Duster (Stock #310) This build is the result of years
of work. It began life as Grandma's 1972 Gold Duster 318 2v Sunday
driver; no wrecks or other body damage. It is currently powered by
a built 1968 LA small block with the appropriate 340 dress-up parts
under the hood. Lots of power, a streetable hydraulic performance
cam, 4v aluminum Hi Rise intake, 4v carburetor, exhaust headers,
electronic ignition, and more make for a powerful and reliable
daily driver. The rear end is an A-body 8 � unit built by Dutchman
Motorsports and featuring a 3.55 Limited Slip rear end, heavy-duty
large bolt-pattern Dutchman axles, new bearings, seals etc. The
front hubs were also upgraded to the same size bolt pattern, and
features front disc brakes. The 4-speed has also been serviced, and
is now shifted through a Pistol Grip shifter (white ball shifter
included as well). Clutch and brakes are good. Engine runs STRONG,
starts easily, and sounds great with headers and new dual exhaust.
Power steering, manual brakes. The body was disassembled as need
including trim, weatherstrip, and glass prior to bodywork and paint
prep. It was then treated to professional bodywork including stud
gun and hammer-and dolly metal-finish to achieve as close to
factory-new fit and finish before any minimal body filler was
applied. The Duster was then painted in beautiful high-end RM
Diamont / Glasurite two-stage base/clear; a gorgeous contemporary
take on Mopar's original B5 Medium Blue factory paint finish. The
underside of hood was also painted to match body, as were the
firewall and cowl. The glass is nice all around, with the window
regulators serviced and operating well. The wheel openings were
then detailed to compliment the new paint. The trim was cleaned and
polished prior to being reinstalled. The roofline features the racy
� black vinyl top which compliments the blue nicely, as do the new
340 Ramcharger hood scoops and Go Wing rear pedestal spoiler. New
340 body side and rear panel decals round out the black accents. I
replaced the front bumper with new (some pics still show old), and
the rear bumper is original and very nice. Up front, a new "Shark
Tooth" 340-specific front grill has been installed *(expensive,
over $1,100.00!), the headlamp buckets detailed, painted brackets,
etc. The door-mounted Sport Mirrors are painted to match. A new
chrome front bumper resides out front, with a nice original rear
bumper The interior has been cleaned, detailed, and restored as
needed, including carpet kit, split-back front bucket seat
upholstery, and more. Great dash pad without breaks or cracks. It
is more than presentable, very nice in my opinion. The wheels are
freshly powder-coated, and have new trim rings and restored center
caps. The tires are in nice condition too Check out over 50 pics
