Vehicle Description
Based on the base-model Plymouth Valiant, the legendary Plymouth
Duster was intended to present a sporty style to attract customers
more than the bland Valiant could. This rare, documented Duster
Twister is a real find, featuring its original build sheet, a
recent full rotisserie restoration, and a completely
numbers-matching powertrain. Popping the hood reveals a
numbers-matching 318 C.I. V8 sitting inside the immaculate engine
bay, breathing fire through a throaty 4-barrel carburetor. Torque
is put to the pavement through an equally numbers-matching 3-speed
manual transmission, good for quick shifting and plenty of smiles
behind the wheel. The benefit of a full recent rotisserie
restoration, this Duster's bodylines are laser-straight and look
fantastic. The exterior paint has been correctly refinished in
"Lemon Twist Yellow", which looks absolutely gorgeous matched up to
this Duster's eye-catching black "Twister" package decals and
stripes. After being restored, this Duster's frame rails, floors,
trunk and jambs are all also rock-solid and in great shape! Opening
the twin doors reveals a stunning black and white patterned cloth &
vinyl interior, the cloth featuring a striking, correct retro plaid
pattern that's sure to turn heads at every car show! With factory
gauges, comfy split-bench seats, and a factory AM pushbutton radio
in the dash, the interior of this Duster is a great place to be.
Additional options include power steering, power brakes, new
bumpers, a rear spoiler, and a mean-sounding dual exhaust system.
The car rides on a sweet set of 14" Mopar rally wheels over B.F.
Goodrich RWL tires for a factory-fresh look that makes this Duster
look like it drove out of its own advertisement! This Duster runs
and drives down the road like a dream, and with its full
restoration, rare "Twister" package, and detailed documentation,
you're not going to come across another quite like it. This
Plymouth is ready to get back out on the road and dust its
opponents from a stoplight, and we'd love to see it in your
driveway.
