    Hi Guys, I am back again looking for guidance. I am in the process of installing original Sport Mirrors on my 1973 Duster. I have the door panel off and I can see several issues and thought I had better ask people that know, before inventing new swear words on my own. First, to get to the...

    A-Body Sport Mirrors - Question

    I have a question on the A-Body Sport Mirrors. Aside from the obvious Left and Right thing, is the driver's side mirror and mirror housing the same size and configuration as the passenger side? Please take a look at the photos and tell me if this is a matched set.

    73 Plymouth Service Manual

    There are actually (2) 1973 Manuals, Body Service and Chassis Service - shown in the photo. I have both, if you need copys of any sections I can copy and send them to you until you get your own set. I see these on Ebay every once and a while, try under "Duster" or "Mopar A Body". Good Luck

    whats this "340 car" worth?

    Hi, you asked for opinions and you have received them. It also appears that you finally got some truthful information from the owner, after you pried it out him. My advice to you is - WALK AWAY!! Just look at the simple economics of the thing, if you paid $5K for the car you still have $10K of...

    Looking for hood scoop stencil

    I have a template that I purchased for the twin snorkle air scoop to mount on a 1972 Demon. I am a little reluctant to let go of it, since I have not yet used it I purchased it on Ebay and have the address of the sender (he didn't put his name on the return address) and will share that with you...

    Duster Hood Scoop New vs Original

    I have a 1973 Duster with a non-original 340/6 pack. I have been looking for some time for a Dual Snorkel hood scoop to install on my hood. Unfortunately, the original scoops that I have found are either too expensive or have so much damage that I am not sure if I could bring them back. I have...

    1973 Duster Restore or Parts Car

    I really don't know much more than I told about the engine and I neglected to get the Vin. or the trim tag information. I think the door jams were white and the interior was black. If you are seriously interested, email me directly and I can give his phone number and he can probably answer your...

    1973 Duster Restore or Parts Car

    I just returned from looking at the attached 1973 Duster. I was looking for a few parts for my 73 and didn't find anything I could use. The owner was so nice that I told him that I would pass the car along to you folks. Basicly the car body looks pretty good - I walked around it a couple of...

    Ebay -love it ,hate it

    I am both a buyer and a seller on Ebay and they have helped greatly in my restoration projects. Having said that - not all the sellers are quality ones and some are down right dishonest! You are obviously PO'ed at the way you have been treated by this guy. I would give him one last chance to...

    Antique car insurance?

    I have my insurance through American Collectors Ins. Co. out of Cherry Hill, NJ.- they have a website at www.americancollectors.com. They seem pretty resonable - but then I have never had a claim either.

    1973 Plymouth 340 Duster

    I have completed the change from bench to bucket seats. The bucket seats were originally from a 1972 Duster. After buying them, I found that the Legendary upholstery for a 1973 would not work on the 1972 seats. I then took the seats to a local upholstery shop that did a great job and had them...

    Why?

    Hi Cerwin, your question is a interesting one. Why would the people of a "politically correct" country that taxes us heavily for unpopular wars, Does not want us to mention our God and grants more rights to illegal aliens than to it's citizens. Why would anyone actually consider flying the flag...

    Bucket Seat Swap - Help!!!

    OK. I have found one of the "dents" the others are very difficult to locate in the positions where I need them. The two outside dents - closest to the doors, I believe these should go through the bracket under the car to re-inforce the outside bolts. Then the stiffener plates must be welded in...

    Bucket Seat Swap - Help!!!

    I am trying to make the switch from bench to bucket seats in my 1973 Duster. The seats that I have are from a 1972 duster and when the sliders are installed the bolt hole locations are 12" on the sides and 14 5/8" across the cushions. I have removed the bench seat and before drilling I have laid...

    Weird carbs on ebag...

    The thing about Ebay is that one man's junk is another man's treasure. I have sold a lot on Ebay and believe me it's better than dragging your parts from Swap Meet to Swap Meet. This way gimps like you and me can still shop from our computers - be glad you still have your leg, I don't.

    Woodgrain dash covering

    I just completed the dash in my 73 Duster. I had pretty much the same problem you describe. I bought a complete set of Burl Vinyl overlay decal, it's not perfect but looks much better than the original. I bought it on Ebay, but the dealer sells there quite often. If you would like to contact me...

    Added Stripes

    Hi Scott, I just finished adding the tail stripe to my 73. It was my first time also, so I had a lot to learn real fast. It looks like you did a pretty good job to me - besides even the ones from the factory were not perfect. Good luck and nice job!
