As a 12 year old boy, I watched my dads 1971 340 duster come off of the truck. It was driven across the parking lot, immediately had wheels and tires, exhaust etc. removed for racing. I grew up with the car, going to the track every weekend. I last drove it myself around 1982.
Car was in my possession, sitting in my barn until 10 years ago. As life would have it, I was raising a family, and my dad ended up selling it to one of our close family friends. Well I finally figured out a way to get it back!
What it is. a 1971 340 four speed ev2 Duster. The car has never been registered, or titled, or street driven! It has 462 original miles!
The car has sat since 82. When my dad was tired of breaking stuff, and decided to put a Dana rear in it, and tub it.......it has sat since. Car is almost all original paint, except where the wheel wells were work on for the tubs. Original v24 hood is in great shape. It will be heading to the body shop next week.
What I do have: fender tag, original window sticker, all of the original interior, (back seat has never been sat in) the original tires and wheels (with 2 miles on them) I have a 1971 Hemi four speed, and an over the counter no vin number 340.
What I do not have: original engine or trans
The process of getting it back together begins..........48 years later!
