I have for sale my 1973 Plymouth Duster. Built at the Hamtramck factory on 17th April 1973 for the Canadian market. The car is 95% stock and is excellent condition for its age. <br />
<br />
Spec: <br />
225ci Slant 6 with Holley 1 barrel carb. <br />
Manual Steering. <br />
Manual Brakes (Drum all round). <br />
904 Auto and 7.25 rear end. <br />
<br />
Canadian (Ontario) car all of its life until imported in January last year (2016). <br />
I have some of the history showing its previous Canadian owners. <br />
Being a 73 its tax free. Even has original bumper jack in the trunk. <br />
<br />
Car is Dark green with gold interior. It was originally golden haze gold when it left the factory (Hamtramck). I would guess it was painted in the 90s to its now green colour. Paintwork is very good, but not perfect. <br />
<br />
The condition of the metalwork is astounding. It must have spent a lot of time in a garage as it"s in better shape than my California car. Doors shut and don t drop on opening. Trunk area is rock solid as are all the body panels. <br />
<br />
Carb has been rebuilt during my ownership. <br />
New Upper and Lower Radiator hoses plus a new Alternator Belt. <br />
<br />
Interior is very good with only a rip in the driver s seat. Rear bench is perfect, slight wrinkle in the dash cap, but other than that very presentable. All the gauges work too. <br />
<br />
Previous Canadian owner put in a new gas tank and sender, plus also fitted a new exhaust system from the manifolds back. These dump prior to the rear wheels and have a flowmaster muffler on it. <br />
<br />
Fully registered in the UK with all taxes paid and plates on. <br />
<br />
The dog dish caps do not come with the car. <br />
<br />
A great way into a Solid Mopar for someone<br />
<br />
Reason for sale.....Unfortunately the birth of our second child and the loss of the wife"s earnings means that in reality, it s going to be years before I can do what I want with this. <br />
It also means that I cannot continue on the Dart which has been mothballed for a while (and I"m eager to get back on track with it). <br />
So with reluctance it s up for sale.<br />
Note: <br />
The car is currently out of MOT (Jan 17). <br />
I drove it to the Hot Rod Drags at Shakespeare County Raceway back in Sept last year, where the brakes failed en route. <br />
It currently has nothing in the way of brakes (Air in the lines/Binding rear drums). <br />
I just don"t have the disposable income or time to rectify this at the moment, so someone has the chance to buy this at a knock down price......The sale of the car is as it stands today. <br />
<br />
It will need to be tailored away. <br />
