Not a big problem at all as far as the sheetmatal goes. You just have to use the entire clip, including grille, bezels, etc. Watch for clearance around the parking lights in the grille.
The biggest problem will be the bumper. '75 has the shock-absorber-type brackets while '73 has "normal" bumper brackets and they don't interchange without fabrication to the mounting points.
No difference between the doors on the exterior. I did hear that the glass doesn't interchange in some years because of the mounting arrangement in the glass. The door sheetmetal is even the same between Sports, Dusters, Scamps, Swingers, etc.
I've converted 2 Dusters into Dart Sports.

You're good to go. It'll all bolt up. The bumper is the main difference, but if you have the complete front clip, no probs.

Mopar!
You could allways put a 74-76 duster shock absorber bumper up front?

Yes,that would be an easy solution and avoid any fabrication. But he'd have to find and buy it off of another car. (Bumper & reinforcement and filler between it and the grille.)
