1974 Duster slant 6 , 4 barrel hot rod custom

[@scottbrown321]

love this, but would love to hear it run and would love to go on a ride.

[@bobsclassiccarsparts8772]

I heard it run. Just for got to record it. My bad

[@scottbrown321]

@@bobsclassiccarsparts8772 I bet it sounded and drove great! Thanks!

That is a sweet car for sure I love everything except the custom dash and that's only because I like the factory dash in cars but I must say he did a good job on that custom dash. I wish someone would make a good aluminum head for the slant 6 engine because many people are hot rodding them engines in the bottle neck slowing the power down is the head but if someone made a aftermarket head that flows great and that would be awesome because it would make a lot of slant 6 fans happy.

[@rickeymitchell8620]

My goodness what a sweet little car. Never discount a bent 6 engine. They are near bullet proof and quick with the right gearing. Thanks for sharing this video.

[@rb.867]

A bent 6 ?

[@rherchenreder]

I had a slant 6 1976 Dodge Aspen wagon 3speed on the floor with an overdrive, loved it and it was a wonderful engine. Car rotted around the engine and transmission which was still good at its end.

[@joebuzz2758]

Love this everyday driver. Best part is the cat footprints on the hood 😆

[@vanvandenbosch3138]

I love it this is a beautiful car, with some really nice touches.

[@jonathanryan2915]

These engines sound great with that 2 into 1 setup.

I have a 72 Duster with a slant six. Bright red color. It has 74000 original miles, and the engine has never been touched. It got passed down in my direction after my grandfather bought it in 72 barely drove it, when he died in 76, my brother bought it from my grandma, I when I bought it from my brother when I was 15 it had 54000 original miles. Its been parked for almost 40 years, cant wait to bring it out of storage. :) that will be a day I will never forget

[@bobsclassiccarsparts8772]

Good luck with it. Hope you enjoy it 👍

[@brandonwillis4811]

Like that dashboard

[@bobsclassiccarsparts8772]

Yea it’s pretty slick

[@ricknel76nelson54]

Great looking car.

Thank you

[@ezrabrooks12]

BEAUTIFUL OLD MOPAR!!!!!

[@bobsclassiccarsparts8772]

Yes sir. Thank you. Glad you enjoyed the video

[@tracygallaway36]

Gosh that's beautiful!!!

[@WBatte1]

The "Twister" option package was an appearance package. The idea was to give the appearance of a factory performance model that would carry the insurance ratings that younger buyers could afford. It began in 1971and was offered until 1973. As far as the cardboard trim in the trunk it was offered from 1973 through 1976 mainly on the higher trim levels like the Gold Duster and the Space Duster. The Space Duster had a fold flat rear seat that allowed the expansion of cargo space in the trunk. This is a confusing era for Chrysler vehicles as you could get multiple options packages on the same car. for instance a Gold Duster often had the Space Duster option package.

[@alpha13dylan]

My 340 duster also had the fold down seats.

[@steelwheels327]

Wow!! she's a looker!!!

[@bobsclassiccarsparts8772]

Thank you

[@julierussell1950]

My family friend told me about slant 6s they sound badass

[@dumpsterchicken6287]

I wanted to hear that slant 6

Thank you Jeffrey

A sweet ride.

Thank you fish

[@juliancrooks3031]

Had a 72 with same color but a 340 with 4 speed. It was a cool car

[@bobsclassiccarsparts8772]

I bet you miss that

[@dannychiguina3962]

Awesome Mopar

Thank you

[@THEMOFODRIVER.]

Beautiful car. I love it.

[@bobsclassiccarsparts8772]

Thank you

[@Remow2112]

Where did you get that gauge bezel? That is outstanding!

[@chriscatarcio7534]

Nice 👍

[@bobsclassiccarsparts8772]

Thank you Chris

[@sinistersmallblock]

Any vids of it running?

[@bobsclassiccarsparts8772]

No we screwed up & forgot to do the running part. Live & learn.

[@rb.867]

I always called them a hillside hemi

[@hotrodsandhorsepower1516]

nice duster color

[@cguitarallday]

Like to heard it run

[@waggitnshaggit6592]

Let’s here the car

[@rb.867]

Start it!!!

[@stephenhallas7575]

Are you going to start it up today?

[@joseph.m.hodges]

My 1974 Dodge Dart Sport 360 had that cardboard panel in the trunk

[@wilson89001]

Where are the hood pins?

[@bobsclassiccarsparts8772]

Good eye dude. Yes they’re intergraded into the rad support. I showed them but forgot to mention them. Sorry by that’s a good catch 👍

[@Remow2112]

Did you make the gauge bezel or buy it? If you bought it where did you get it?

[@bobsclassiccarsparts8772]

Well you’re the second person that has asked about the bezel. I thought I had included that info in the video but apparently not. No he bought the bezel & the company he bought it from is no longer in business.

[@Remow2112]

@@bobsclassiccarsparts8772 Thanks for the clarification. If it was in the video I missed it. It is a real shame, it is a really well done bezel!

[@doc3584]

we don't get to hear it run?

[@thomasfesta3406]

Very nice! I have a Duster with Cliffords too. How close is the header on the left to his power steering box?

[@bobsclassiccarsparts8772]

Don’t know. Maybe the owner will chime in

[@rb.867]

I don’t like flat paint or decals in flat on any car, it makes it look dull. I hate it when people paint chrome black too. Whatever happened to chrome?

[@CarsandCats]

I wonder why you never ran the engine?

[@bobsclassiccarsparts8772]

Sorry buddy just simply forgot to video it running.

[@MrPERPS]

Cherry 😍😀

[@canuckfixit7722]

Great presentation of the car but it would have been WAAAAY better if you could have started it up so we could hear the effect of the 6 into 2 into 1 performance exhaust.

[@stephengervais1219]

woowwee!!!

[@garyspangler5546]

MOPAR❤

[@SulCoCrazy]

Nice. I like this. Why though do ppl take classic cars and put modern things on the,m like modern dashboards or even motors? Makes little sense to me.e

[@gpilsitz1783]

That is a bute' of a car!

[@caribman10]

Needs a 5 speed transmission........and disc rear brakes.

[@highvolts6620]

All that and no start up? Very disappointing. Cool car though

[@peterkeeler7978]

HOT ROD MY ASS...........THE CHEAPEST PRODUCTION CAR EVER.........JUNK WHEN NEW.
