1972 Plymouth Duster 340c.i., 4-speed, FC7 Plum crazy purple, white interior, bucket seats, factory AM radio, centerline wheels, 8 ¾ rear end and 3.91 posi gears, tuff wheel, white 340 Duster side and trunk stripes, black hood treatment, dual exhaust with correct chrome tips, and just completed a very nice light restoration on this super nice Plum Crazy 340 Duster! The Duster was a factory 318 car that was upgraded with the 340 (1971 steel crank) (date code 7-1-70). The Duster is an absolutely awesome car. It is an excellent all purpose car for shows, cruises and cruising! I would best describe it as a nice driver with a nice overall appearance as it does have a few minor paint flaws. Please call me if you are a serious buyer and I will go into exact detail so you know everything about the Duster! Thanks! PAINT, BODY AND FRAME The body is very straight and in very good shape. All of the Duster’s body numbers match on the radiator support, trunk, door VIN decal and the VIN tag. The Duster is an all original sheet metal car with exception to the lower quarter’s having some small work done. The quarters, floor boards, doors, fenders and trunk extensions are all in great shape and appear to be original. The frame is in very good shape and the undercarriage is also very clean and neat with no rust. The paint was done over 10 years ago but still looks excellent! There are no paint blisters or bubbles anywhere. There are a few small chips that were brush touched and a few minor flaws in the paint but again it looks very good for it’s age. The super high-gloss deep clear coat shine was professionally wet sanded with 1200 and 1500 grit paper to achieve a high caliber ultra finish. The body is very nice and has excellent panel fit. I would call it a very nice driver quality paint job and not an all out show car paint job. There are a few minor marks on the fender tops (forward) and a small blemish in the clear on the RH quarter just above the white stripe. The blacked out hood looks very good but does have a few very small dings (dime size). I just had the RH door and quarter painted (had a couple scratches and couple of small blisters fixed) and it looks great but there is a slight color indifference at the door to front fender. It seems that in direct sunlight it looks very close then sometimes in lower lighting you can notice it more. Just want to be upfront so you know what you are getting. GLASS, CHROME AND TRIM The glass is in very good condition and only has a few small minor scratches. All windows operate and line-up perfectly. The front and rear bumpers have been re-chromed. The door handles, remote mirror and inside/outside door handles are also in very nice condition. The trim is clean and was polished for optimum shine. The front grill was restored, painted and looks great. INTERIOR The white interior is in excellent shape and has newer seat covers, front arm rest bezels and pads, trunk divider and carpet. All factory gauges work and operate correctly. The factory dash pad is in excellent shape with no cracks and the dash cluster is also in very good condition. New Auto-meter oil and water gauges were added for accuracy. The All lighting works as should including the high/low beams, dome light, reverse lights, tail lights, parking lights, turn signals and four-way flashers. The complete heater box was restored and had a new heater core installed. The fan motor, defrosters, wipers, horn and E-brake all work. The factory AM radio also works! DRIVE TRAIN The strong running 340 makes excellent power and runs great. This engine runs extremely strong and very easy to drive in any given traffic condition. It was rebuilt several years ago by a professional engine shop. The 340 has been freshened up with new gaskets, seals, 2.02 heads just redone, newer intake and holley 4-bbl. carb. The 4-speed transmission feels excellent and shifts beautiful through the gears and is an absolute blast to drive! We just did the clutch (Mcleod), pressure plate, flywheel (new/steel) and through- out bearing. The 340 has a nice healthy street cam in it and sounds very good even at idle! It has excellent drivability and cools well even in stop and go traffic.
