1974 Plymouth Duster restoration part 1
1974 Duster bought off ebay in 2003, sight unseen. Paid $2276. Flew a friend out to San Francisco to drive it all the way back to Virginia, and the car made it with few problems (needed a radiator, tires, fuel pump). In 2007 I decided to start taking it apart to restore/modify it. Plans are to install a 408 small block/727 drivetrain.
1971 Plymouth Duster Walk Around and Ride
I decided to take some video of my 1971 Plymouth Duster. The car has been running for a few months and is still a work in progress. It's going to be a cruiser and a track car mainly. Bore and Stroked 360ci to 408ci. Heads, Cam, Ported intake and heads. Unknown HP at this time, it also hasn't been tuned yet. I didn't do any full throttle runs through the gears due to traffic and traction. I'm also trying to make a mount for my HD camera as the GoPro doesn't record the car's true sound very clearly.
1972 Plymouth Duster Purple
Chrysler Corporation sure knew how to take a base compact sedan and make a performance car out of it! This one has a 340 c.i. engine with a four speed, pistol grip manual transmission. Graphics and color are great.

Duster was a low weight car with a big engine! Controlling weight was the name of the game...and these cars came with a minimum of trim, similar in idea to the Road Runner..but this car was lighter. This was close to the end of high performance cars at this point...it was a fairly long run...from the Dodge Red Ram of 1953 that carried it through its hemi days.
Mopar @ Autorama Detroit 2012 | Alex Stark 1971 Plymouth Duster Restore
While on the floor at Autorama Detroit 2012 we ran into Alexandrea Stark, the owner and restorer of a 1971 Plymouth Duster. What makes Alex's story unique, though, is the 14 year old isn't even old enough to drive her car yet.
