55lincoln's video: 1970 PLYMOUTH DUSTER 340 - ORIGINAL UNRESTORED LOW MILEAGE

Filmed in a crowded showroom, I couldn't pass up this jewel. Just as it had with the Road Runner in 1968, Plymouth hit a muscle car home run in 1970 with the budget-priced Duster 340. The formula for the 1970 Plymouth Duster 340 was familiar. Take a cheap-to-produce platform, in this case a Valiant wearing a new fastback body, and treat it to a hot engine, here Mopar's respected 340-cid four-barrel V-8. The determined little Duster was lighter, roomier, and faster than the 340 'Cuda. With a base price of just $2,547, it was the lowest-priced car in Plymouth's Rapid Transit System. And it was the only one with front disc brakes standard. The 340 V-8 had proven itself over preceding years, propelling a series of giant-killer Darts and earlier-generation Barracudas to mid-14-second ET's at near 100 mph. It used a Carter AVS four-barrel and camshaft timing only slightly less radical than that of the mighty 440 Six Pack. It was rated at 275 bhp, but practiced observers insisted it actually made closer to 325 bhp. A pistol-grip for the four-speed, an 8000-rpm tach, and power steering were attractive extra-cost items. No scoops were offered, and the only hot-car cues were dual exhausts and modest decals. Features of this stellar example include : This 1970 Plymouth Duster 340 has a numbers matching 340 cubic V8, 727 Torqueflite 3 speed automatic, 3.23 rear end ratio, un-restored original car, 3 owner survivor, only 54,250 original miles!
