I noticed that too...but that's not a bad thing that is has a 340!:burnout:that is not a real 340 car with no rally dash. Its a duster that someone may have put a 340 in.
And thats good that they clip on, that would suck if someone had drilled holes into the roof lolroof racks to carry stuff - just clamps on to drip rail. easy on and off
Seller claims matching #
its cobbled up with a lot of different parts. I guess survivor these days means wrong dash with a 75/6 cluster....a steering wheel that was not available in these cars. Changed out front seat. Supposed to be a 70 but has a 71+ side stripe. Don't you just love how the wiper motor was just spray bombed with the rest of the engine compartment. That engine looks like a late 60s 318. Definitely not the right color to be a "survivor" 70 340 and something is going on with the alternator.
all of these are really ok for a project ...cant expect much from a 45 year old car ....but to claim survivor status .......I think not.
some sellers either don't know what they have or they think the mopar crowd was born yesterday.
Did anyone notice that this may very well be a Mexican built Duster? Check out those hood scoop emblems, hard to make out but I think those are those Mexican "318" ones....also, a 4-speed was common in these cars.....notice the hood scoop has the hood tach bolted to the scoop? That's original for these Mexican built cars with both of these options. They never had a 340 though but engines come and go over the years....this actually might be a pretty rare car.
Totally. When I saw the inner door panel emblem with the hood emblem I thought Mexican Super Bee.
There's a guy in Ventura that has a Mexican Dart GTS and a Valiant Super Bee. I've posted pictures here of them before. Looking at the backgrounds it could be one of his.
And those Mexican cars get very hammered down there. Which is indicative in the pictures. In Mexico, THAT IS A SURVIVOR.
Now that I see the pictures. It surely 100% from Mexico. The clues...
- No heater motor
- Non US wiper motor. Totally different than anything here.
- Inner doors cut for emblems on a 70 up duster non-vent door (never in US)
- Hood Tach
- Scoop emblems
- 70 wide horn button wood wheel. Horn button is 70 B-body only, not common to swap on. If you enlarge picture, the button doesn't look exactly like US button.
- When you enlarge picture there are no controls in the dash heater panel. It's blanked out.
The speedometer is actually in KM/H not MP/H as well.
