'73 Duster 340. "Formal Black" with white stripes and black interior. These images were taken in 1979 except for the interior shot, which was probably around the late 90's. I still have the Duster BTW. :love4:

The only thing different is the red stripe. Mine was a delete strip car, and of course the Cragars. Originally black steel wheels and dog dish hubcaps.

Supposedly,......Black accounted for less than 1% of Chrysler Vehicles bought in 1972.....food for thought.

Great thread, I wonder why black was not opted for more in the 60's 70's was black just not COOL then?

Having been around during those days, I would say yes. It was the era of high impact colors. Your parents and grandparents drove black cars.

idk,ever since i saw jeffs swinger i've been thinking i have only seen a handfull of factory black swingers.not trying to say they are worth anything more but still has tobe a rare deal .
 
72 Gold Duster 318/904/power steering TRIPLE-BLACK. This is a 1%'er.

Needs rust work BAD. I'm recovering from being shot in the spine, so maybe next year we'll be on the road.

I am not very happy with this thread! Considering that black is my all time favorite car color and my Dart is red I am getting a bit cranky!! LOL Keep the pics coming people and I will have to order paint for my dart.
