1972 Plymouth Duster 340 Description

A good Mopar is always the best muscle car for the money. The rare production numbers and unique touches always make them a hit today. It gets even better on a 1972 Plymouth Duster that was born a high performance 340 machine, and today now benefits from a Six Pack and a four-speed to really let it live up to its performance appearance.
The Duster had one of the most aggressive A-body designs, and the glossy red just highlights all the angles perfectly. If you missed the curves on the shine of the paint, then the full-length factory-correct stripe package will help guide you across the kicked-up rear fenders. Those callouts on the rear are correct; this one was born a top-of-the line Duster package with the big motor for the little car. So that black composite hood feels like its earned, too. And while well get to the engine in a moment, right now, this about appreciating the quality, care, and restoration of a car that many let go too far before the car community really started appreciating them again. So out of the 15,681 big engine Dusters produced in 72, it might be a while before you find one again where the panels are so straight or the chrome bumpers have such a mirror shine.
The white side stripes and black hood were actually just a preview for the interior. Theres just something about high-back white bucket seats in Mopars that just seem to represent their era the best. The matching rear seats and door panels look great, but this one is also set up for real use. After all, the contrasting black not only looks great, but its in high-traffic areas like on the top of the door where you rest your arm, or on the carpet that holds your dusty shoes. But what youll love the most is the three-spoke steering wheel that gives you a clear view of the heat/defrost controls and all the gauges (including the newer Mallory oil pressure readout.) And of course, the Hurst shifter will always get your blood pumping from the moment you right hand grabs it.
The biggest bang for the buck was stuffing a large 340 cubic-inch V8 into a lightweight car like the Duster. If youve never driven one of these potent small blocks, youre in for a treat. Thanks to triple two-barrel carbs of the famous Six Pack, it makes the most spectacular intake wail, and the hit of torque is quite unlike any other small block youve driven. A motor this special deserves to be shown off, thats why it looks terrific under the hood with the red painted engine bay coordinating with the huge air topper and bold V8 block. Plus, the Mopar valve covers and radiator add some nice darkness to the sea of red. Youll love getting this one out on the road, because the four-speed manual transmission give you complete control over the V8s powerband and really lets the dual exhaust roar. Plus, with front disc brakes and BF Goodrich T/As on the iconic Rallye wheels, you stay connected to the blacktop.

I saw this car online about 6 months ago and fell in love with the color combo and the beautiful detail of the frame up restoration... Everything is brand new - Paint is 100% not a mark anywhere - The engine bay is cleaner than my wives kitchen.... I bought the car and went through every detail that needed attention...... Just changed oil and filter - had entire vehicle clayed and professionally machine buffed, Car has only been driven about 50 miles since i've owned it.... Call mr anytime 401-741-5646 for more details....Im not going to make any money on this vehicle wanting to buy a Lambo and just out of garage space and the extra cash to do so... This car was originally online for $37,900.00, I negotiated a great price and will now sell it back for less than what I paid.....
