1973 Plymouth Duster Description

UP FOR AUCTION IS A OLDER PRO STOCK PLYMOUTH DUSTER, LAST RACED AS A SUPER PRO CAR AROUND THE EARLY 90'S. THIS CAR IS INTERESTING IN THAT THE FRONT SUSPENSION CONSIST OF RACK AND PINION STEERING, STOCK 73 DISC BRAKES, COIL OVERS WITH STOCK UPPER CONTROL ARMS, LOWER CONTROL ARM REPLACED WITH STEEL ROD AND FRONT STRUT ROD WAS FABRICATED AND REPLACES STOCK PART, THESE PARTS ARE CHROME PLATED, ALONG THE LINES OF WHAT SOX AND MARTIN DID TO THIER CARS FOR EASE OF MAINTENANCE, INSPECTION, APPEARANCE AND DURABILITY. DANA REAR WITH WHAT APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN UPDATED FROM SUPER STOCK SPRINGS TO LADDER BAR SUSPENSION SOME TIME AGO, PERCHES AND LEAF SPRING HANGERS STILL IN TACK. ROLL CAGE IN CAR AND AGAIN, THIS WAS UPDATED SOME TIME AGO BECAUSE THERE IS EVIDENCE OF ANOTHER ROLL BAR MOUNTING POINTS ON FLOORS. SOME HAVE LOOKED AT IT AND IT REMINDS THEM OF HERB MCANDLES OLD CAGES. CAR WAS AN ORIGINAL FAWN BROWN CAR WITH ONLY ONE REPAINT AS THE SOX AND MARTIN RED WHITE AND BLUE TRADITIONAL COLORS. CAR HAS FIBERGLASS HOOD, FENDERS, BUMPERS AND DASHBOARD, ALL OF GOOD QUALITY, DASH IS A A&A PIECE. TRUNK LID IS STEEL WITH INNER STRUCTURE CUT OUT AND IS A PIN ON TRUNK. LOOKING AT PICTURES FROM OLD MAGAZINES AND BOOKS SOME STRUCTURES AND LOCATING POINTS OF VARIOUS PARTS ARE REMINISANT OF SOX AND MARTIN CARS, I WOULD LOVE TO BELIEVE THIS IS A FORMER CLINIC CAR, CUSTOMER CAR, DAVID SOX TEST CAR???? CAR COULD BE DEILIVERED TO CHRYSLERS AT CARLISLE THIS JULY IF INTERESTED AND BOUGHT. BUYER WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR SHIPPING AND COST. PLEASE LOOK AT PHOTOS AND IF HAVE INFO ON CAR PLEASE CONTACT ME AT 6094105185. IN AUGUST OF 74 RONNIE SOX WAS DRIVING A EX-HERB MCANDLES DRIVEN BROOKLYN HEAVY 73 DART SPORT, CONVERTED TO LOOK LIKE A 75 DUSTER IN THE PRO AMERICAN CHAMPIONSHIP EVENT. ANYONE KNOW THE WHEREABOUTS OF THIS PARTICULAR CAR? I HAVE SEEN THE FRED RISTAGNO CAR UP CLOSE AND THIS DOES NOT HAVE ANY OF THE LIGHTENING PIECES YOU WOULD FIND ON THE PRE 73 PRO STOCK CARS. SOX AND MARTIN BUILT CARS FOR CUSTOMER LIKE HERB MCANDLES, RUFUS LEE "BROOKLYN HEAVY" BOYD, RONNIE LYLES, FREEMAN LEE CROWDER SR, AND FREEMAN LEE CROWDER JR WHO RAN THE TENNESSEE THUNDER DEMON BUILT BY SOX & MARTIN AND MANY OTHERS, COULD THIS BE ONE??
