1970 Plymouth Duster
360 V-8
As 1970 rolled around the big 3 new it was the beginning of the end for true muscle car horsepower. So I guess you can say it was a race to the finish. Which one of the Big 3 along with AMC would have the largest block and highest horsepower. The GM block was 454 and 455, Chrysler and Dodge it was the 440. Even Lincoln and Cadillac were posting some of the largest cubes as a 460 was for Lincoln and the 501 was for Cadillac. It truly was an era we will never see again when it didn’t matter what types of toxins were in the air as long as rubber was left on the ground. By 1975 if you weren’t grandfathered in, you were driving a dog….no matter what the brand was.
That’s when motor swapping and aftermarket parts really started to soar! This 1970 Plymouth Duster is a clone, but was happily a victim of a motor swap and some clone badging. It was born as a 1970 Valiant and was bionically rebuilt into something special. The amount of money spent was much more then what we are asking for it today. Please read on to find out about this rare find and let us know of any questions you may have.

Interior:
The interior is as original as it came from the factory. All basic options work well. The carpet and headliner are in excellent condition. The seats are in great original condition showing hardly any wear. The dash and door panels have no cracks. A very plain, yet function interior that is great for family cruise nights. Please look at the pictures and let us know of any questions.
Drive-Train:
The original slant six was long removed and we were told that a mid 70’s 360 engine was installed with a 4 bolt main. Some performance upgrades are aluminum intake and performance carburetor. Headers were installed to enhance the sound. The transmission is the 727 Torqueflight 3 speed. All the belts, hoses, brakes and suspension are in excellent condition and are road worthy. The car runs out beautifully. Please let us know of any questions you may have.
In summation – if you’re a Mopar or Nocar kind of person and don’t have a fortune to build a beast like this. You might as well buy this one. You can’t supply the car, this solid and straight, and do all the modification and have it be less expensive then our asking price. Please give us a call and come and see this Plymouth! |
