Vehicle Description
This 1971 Plymouth Duster Twister Tribute is one of the most
interesting cars you can get your hands on right now. After all, it
doesn't look like a sleeper, but it really is. The Twister package
was all about looking like a speedier Duster but with a smaller V8.
But this custom extra-sleek silver bullet blows the doors off the
full classic Duster lineup because there's a professionally-built
360 V8 with a supercharger under the hood!
The Duster 340 was a true street king, and the Twister wanted to
capture that magic, too. So it got a terrific sense of style with
the dual scoop hood painted matte black and a strobe stripe put on
top. The full-length side stripe loves to show off the Coke-bottle
curves that make the Duster line so desirable today. And the
blackout grille, blackout rear panel, wide dual exhaust tips, and a
large rear spoiler complete quite a sporty package. So this coupe
is quite attractive even before you notice the fundamentals. Bright
chrome bumpers, good body lines, and a terrific shine from the
silver paint tell you this Twister tribute came from a respected
home. In fact, it's even coming off of a dozen years of long-term
care.
The black accents of the exterior get you ready for the full black
interior. It's quite basic and complete, but that's kind of the
point of a car like this. There's no real extra fluff here because
the performance Dusters were great for utilizing the most from its
V8 power by being a smaller/lightweight package. So this one
doesn't have too many superfluous features. Instead, it just looks
clean, fresh, and attractive with the right driver-focused
upgrades. This includes high-back front bucket seats, a B&M
floor shifter, an AutoMeter column-mounted tach, and auxiliary
readouts under the dash.
We love how the engine bay has some serious shine to make sure
you'll want to showcase this special powerhouse. It's a 360
cubic-inch V8 that was professionally built in 2011. It includes a
Quick Fuel four-barrel carburetor, an Edelbrock intake, and long
tube headers feeding the dual exhaust. And oh yeah, there also
happens to be a fully polished setup drawing all your attention to
the Paxton supercharger. It's a serious power package, and we even
have a dyno sheet showing 375 horsepower. Plus, there are good
sporting components like the aluminum radiator and MSD digital
ignition. There was nearly $3k invested within the last few months
having the transmission professionally rebuilt, and this feeds into
a strong Mopar 8 3/4 limited-slip rear end with 3.23 gears. And
power steering, front disc brakes, and extra wide rear tires
deliver a solid all-around power driver.
The sale comes complete with build receipts and the dyno sheet.
This Duster offers power, poise, and distinction in an irresistible
