Advice on ‘74 Duster
it’s a ‘74 Duster, it originally a /6 bucket seat console car with non-power disc brakes. Fold down rear seat built in Canada to US specs
It now has a mildly built 360, not sure what year the motor is yet but, he did send me pics of the numbers off the block to verify it is a 360.
He says the trans has a shift kit and not sure what the rear gears are or what trans it has for that matter other than it’s a 3 speed auto which all autos were.
I haven’t seen it in person yet, but the seller sent me a video and it sure sounds sweet. Has electric cutouts.
Not sure why they put a 340 decal on the car when it has a 360 motor!?
Has ac but he says it needs re-charged and checked for leaks but says the compressor isn’t locked up as it spins and engages but no cold air.
Fuel gauge and hood tach work and it has aftermarket gauges for oil pressure and water temp.
He says paint is fading and has a few small bubbles in both quarters but no rot or rust, no dents and bumper have good chrome California car it’s whole life.
Anyways he is asking $15,000 USD and says he can come down a little.
So many dusters I see are 20k plus or really need ALLOT of work and they still want 10 grand.
Just looking for advice and thoughts
Thanks!
