I Saved This Awesome 1974 Plymouth Duster From A Parts Car Death

Today on Dead Plymouth Garage, it's time for one of my favorite things - buying a really cheap A body, reviving it, and saving it from a sad end so that it can live on as a viable project car. The added bonus on this deal is the warm and fuzzy feeling I get to be back in a '74 Duster, as that was the first Mopar I used as a daily driver. Oh, also, this might be the nicest running slant six I've ever heard - so there's that.

[@matthewb8229]

As a child of the 70s, and a teenager of the 80s, Centerline wheels will never hear a bad spoken about them by me. They're just so...hotroddy... I promise you, every person in town hears an open pipe car or truck running down the road thinks, "Well, Jamie got him some new pile of rust."

[@DeadDodgeGarage]

I love ‘em. They just seemed a little modern for the 60s gasser vibe I want for the car.

[@TheREALOC1972]

I'm the same, child of the very early 70's and teenager of the 80's these mid-late 70's cars were our High School Hot Rods, yeah there was the random late 60's and early 80's cars but for the most part the 73-78 cars were the norm. My first car was a 76 RS Camaro that I bought from my next door neighbor that she sold to me for $200 when she got married and moved to Texas with her new husband, My best friend had a 78 Nova, My High School Sweetheart had a 75 Thunderbird, Her best friend a 73 Dodge Dart and so on, these were the cars early Gen Xers grew-up with and drove in High School and They are coming back around as builds because for the most parts they are still around and either on the road or like this car are not far from it because the parts are still available and you can buy them DIRT CHEAP. Just about every project car in my club out here in Southern Arizona (Tucson area) that have been bought since the Dempanic and the Convid "outbreak", are the "smog" cars of the mid-late 70's. I've personally been driving while I work on a 73 Buick Regal That I bought for $1200 and after airing up the tires, throwing a battery in it and disconnecting the fuel system and running it on a gas can I drove it a little over 50 miles home. I was going to just park it in my shop and completely strip it and build it into a full Restomod but the longer I drove it home the better it got So I just decided to make a Daily Driver/Cruise/Cars and Coffee Car. As of right now I have right $4,000 and I all have to do is paint it. I've pulled the engine and trans cleaned them up really good and painted them pulled the body off the frame and sandblasted and repainted everything along with new bushing, bearings and body mounts. Redone the interior by dyeing most of it and then went to a junkyard and bought some captain style buckets and center consol from a 77 Olds Cutlass. It was originally green on green on green but It's now going to be Dark Silver with Dark red Interior. The wheels are the original steel wheels with baby moons. I'm not putting alot of money into it, I just want something nice to daily drive that I can still take cruise nights and cars and coffee's on the weekend.

[@m1a1hm]

Good for you for saving the Duster. The way I look at it is one more car on the road thats not lost to history and may be the next person will take the car to the next lever.

[@staceyrenner5418]

Amazing what some people consider parts cars these days. I know it's not an early Duster, but man that thing is definitely a worthy candidate for a little love. Oh, and that Star Wars crawl was friggin' awesome lol. Won't be able to make the livestream tonight, hope everyone has a great time!

I wasn’t sure how that would play but I’m glad I went with it 🤣 catch you next week Stacey!

Not surprised to see it start so relatively easily; that wasn't a Holley carb on it. Nice save.

[@DeadDodgeGarage]

I was shocked when it wasn’t a 1920 and it still wouldn’t idle at first… but it came around.

[@johnmaki3046]

Actually; WHAT A REAL VEHICLE WAS!

[@lowest.tier.garage]

Nice work man! Can't believe that car was going to be parted out. I totally agree with the mindset of saving these classics. Before I bought my short bed D100 (big block), the previous owner was going to part it out, but he could have been bluffing. However, I bought it for an amazing deal and the previous owner seemed pretty genuine. Anyway, the truck is super solid and I would have hated to see it have the same fate as many other great cars that have been parted out. Glad you saved that duster. Also, that has a wicked stance!

[@DeadDodgeGarage]

It’s amazing what used to qualify as a parts donor… I know, I dig it. The secret? Literally the biggest possible rear tire that could fit 😅 I think a taller front tire but lower torsion bar setting would help the look a bit.

[@TsGoodTimesGarage]

I don't think I would ever in my life have considered that a parts car! Worth saving and I would have had a tough time passing that one up as well! And trailer burnouts will NEVER get old! 😆

[@DeadDodgeGarage]

No, they really never will 🤣 yeah… I might have to change my mind on selling it on. I love the look and have some ideas.

[@linwoodlane7006]

Lovely save - never thought id see you actually wash a car - im all fuzzy inside now

[@Roosters_Restos]

Lol we were chatting when the cable on the truck left ya. It's a good save and I am getting a rust free one of these in April to run through the shop. Your right the early ones are hard to find so these are more sought after and affordable. They are nice pay checks when you find them. The fact it runs and sorta drives is 4 grand here. Brakes are optional equipment

[@DeadDodgeGarage]

Right - it totally would be worth that here with paperwork and a little less rust. Probably looking at a little under half that as is, but I’m good with it.

[@wiggyjones]

Thanks for the great work you're doing to save these beautiful cars.

[@desertmopars3336]

The problem is there are guys with better condition Dusters, that need minor things, with MORE money and LESS of a conscience, than the average guy. I saved a 74 Gold Duster a year and a half or so ago doing the same thing, I gave him the parts he was going to waste a whole car for. I can't drive it on the road with no title... but EXCELLENT drag car material. It will continue on!!

[@TheREALOC1972]

Yep but if it were me I'd paint the roof a different color than the car (Something Chrysler did in the later Duster's) and keep the trim. My aunt had a Brown 76 Duster that had a white painted roof, she bought it new that way. They started doing away with the vinyl tops because it was just cheaper to paint the roof a different color than it was to paint the top in epoxy and put a vinyl top on it.

[@claztube]

3 months later... I remember a good buddy of mine had this same color Duster model. Per usual it had to be Christened with a moniker. It became known as Buster the Duster. This would have been in the early 1980's. If memory serves my gray cells even partially, he had a couple mechanical issues, what those were though, I just can't recall. It was though a good running car for his needs with maybe a 'charging' issue if I were to guess after seeing the regulator concern you pointed out. What became of the car, I'd guess money being tight at that time in our young lives, Buster likely was sold off for little cash and off went Buster to some other fella to get working as a daily driver in our region of and time of our lives as minumum wage service oriented workers in the S.F. Bay Area.

[@ZachHicks420]

Awesome watch bro!

[@randyman828]

You got a good sense of humor...😊

[@CLT77664]

Wow... that Duster has the electric rear defroster?!? That's kinda rare. Just that by itself makes it work getting! If you ever have to scrap that car for some reason, make sure to pull that rear window, the wiring, and switch. Also, seems I recall reading in my owner's manual years ago that the electric rear defroster option included a 60 amp alternator... whereas models without that option came with the 45 ro 50 amp alternator. Would be crazy if you discovered the thing still worked!

[@DeadDodgeGarage]

It didn’t work… which was unfortunate. That would make good sense - they definitely pull some juice.

[@ericwilson2585]

Yes, I completely agree with you Jamie. Around here, if a Duster looks that good and even runs & drives, it'd be worth at least 3 grand all day long... Last summer is seen a 70' hard top Catalina in about that same condition but with no motor or trans sell for 3800 dollars.

[@baerster]

I remember my other grandma (not the one with the big Dodge, this is the grandmother whose maiden name was the Zelasko, that park was named after her uncle) I remember at least twice she had to get a new voltage regulator on her 1960s era plymouth Belvedere II. I also remember that when she used for turn indicator, the voltage gauge would wiggle a little bit. Looking back on it, it seems a little weird to me that the turn signal would use enough voltage set the voltage gauge did that.

[@DeadDodgeGarage]

Brake lights too. Watching the ammeter when hitting the brake pedal is a great way to find out if your brake lights are working. Haha. I can’t tell you how many voltage regulators of both styles I’ve replaced in the last 15 years. Just so many.

Something about time passing. Also the more every modern car looks like a jelly bean space ship, the better this looks. I suppose having driven one in my formative years probably helps too.

Anyway, our mutual grandmother had an enormous white Dodge - it might have been a 1960 Matator. I even gave it a "tune up" (I thought I knew how to use a strobe).

You should have seen what they considered parts cars in the 80's and 90's!! Solid,straight complete 1968 Charger R/T 440 that would still run and drive and a $60,000 car today, they chopped them up for parts,same with Cuda's etc...Not kidding either! A parts guy here would buy cars off local auto trader and part them out and he sold parts at a high price,and he was in business for decades! He ruined thousands of great cars..majority were not wrecked either nor needed major mechanical work! I saved a '73 340 Cuda from him as I beat him to the seller,he pulled up about 5 minutes after I handed the guy the cash and I got the title..Solid car paint,interior perfect,engine ran strong same with trans..Was my daily for 2 years,looked perfect from 5 feet away! The guy would have parted that car out he told me! car looked like it had new paint from 5 feet away,minor rock chips,minor road rash on rockers and lower rear 1/4 panels..Original paint shined like new and looked like new paint if you didnt see the minor rock chips,white stripe was perfect,vynal top was perfect,no bubbling of rust under it! Zero rust,Zero dents,interior had a minor split in drivers seat(I repaired)..clean and looked nearly show car fresh..Gauges clear etc..150,000 mile,clean 73 340 Cuda! I drove the car 2 years as a daily before rebuilding the engine/trans after lots of light to light racing (hey I was young)..Unreal the cars that got junked/parted out! And yes,my buddy bought a rallye hood from him for his base Challenger he cloned to a 440 R/T in 1992..and we seen the cars he had,many were not crashed or junk,most looked better than what was driving on the roads,meaning paint,interior etc.. People had to buy from him for some rare cars when their was no reproduction parts,so my buddy contributed to the insanity!! Thats how he bought near mint cars and parted them out..He didn't care,he made double or triple back chopping them up! As he screwed the guys with high prices that needed the parts! Glad for reproduction parts,it brought used parts down in prices making it worth selling the car complete worth more vs parts in most cases!

It’s possible there may have been some random package change, option update, or similar during the production run that might lead someone to say their car was a 71 1/2, but there’s definitely nothing major or official that changed. People call the A12 cars 1969 1/2 because that package was released in the middle of the ‘69 run. To me it’s still the same ‘69 body and was made at the latest in the middle of 1969, so I can’t say I get it.

So we replaced a engine with a headgaskitleak, for cheap.. lol .. WE live in Holland btw, europe. my son is racing now on Nurnburgring with friends in his Accord 2,4 liter Vtec. thats also goes like lightning. Not as fast as Porsches and stuf but older Hondas are cheap.. and you get a lot of hp out of those engines . Toyontas are i think the best cars on the market !! alswais on nr 1. So good choises.. but i like the raw and simple usa muscle cars also very mutch !! so easy.. and nice sounds !! cu greets from holland !!

It’s called “Aggressively Disassembling A 1973 Plymouth Scamp Rust Bucket,” and I’ll attach a link which might even work: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y6HChJmGfqqigqM
