"Do you think the car is rare with its option for bench seat/340/4speed.
Thanks I value your opinion. The bottom is covered with a undercoating that’s pealing off in places and a lot of rust in all the normal places."
Not as much as the color black. 1972 Duster340 production was 15,681 total. Of that 15,681 approx 1.6% were painted black, the least desired color due to being hot in summer and hard to keep clean. Doing quick math you can calculate approx 250 black cars were produced. This in itself creates the rarity. Four speed vs automatic cars is not known or at least as far as I know. If someone has that factory info pleased let me know.
J55 is the code for undercoat with hood pad. This code can be found on the vehicles build sheet if your lucky enough to find it. Do not confuse undercoat for wheel well sound deadener which all cars received.
