1972 Plymouth Duster 340

GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this 1972 Plymouth Duster 340 for your consideration. This highly original Duster is powered by its 340ci V8 motor which provides plenty of power to get this awesome classic cruisin' down the road. Mated to the 340 is a 3-speed manual transmission with floor shifter. The transmission has no issues shifting between gears and the driving experience overall is very enjoyable.

The exterior is finished in the original color of Blue Sky and the selling owner notes that much of the car is still sporting the original paint. Also left original is the accenting decal tape stripe running along the side of the vehicle which adds a bit more character to the overall exterior appearance. It rides on 14-inch wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires which appear to be in good condition.

Inside the vehicle is a clean blue vinyl interior that is free of any major wear with the exception of a crack in the dashboard that can be seen in the photos on our website. The original interior bench has been recovered once. All carpeting, dash trim, and door card trim are in great condition.

This is a fantastic survivor example that is now available to purchase. Not many Dusters were optioned with the 340ci V8 and 3-speed manual transmission. This example was sold out of Star Chrysler in Nashville, TN. The car as a whole remains in a good original condition with very few modifications having been done. The motor has a direct connection intake, street cam, and hardened valve seats. The Duster offered here was recently a finalist at the 2021 Mint Festival Car show in St. Johns, MI and has been regularly driven and stored in a climate controlled garage. Accompanying the vehicle is the original build sheet, dealer invoice, and other various original documentation.

The original Plymouth Duster is a semi-fastback two-door coupe version of the compact-sized Plymouth Valiant automobile that was marketed by Plymouth in the U.S. from 1970 to 1976 model years. As the Barracuda grew in dimension, the hole it left in the Plymouth lineup was filled by the Duster. The Duster produced a sporty, inexpensive compact that was a lot of bang for the buck.
