who is into "later" cars

As far as interiors go, the early Dusters had ugly door panels(painted metal at the top of the door.) 73 and 74 are much better. The early cars had a better dash pod. If you take off the bumper guards, the later Dusters look just as good. And don't forget the important stuff on later cars: Electronic ignition, Safer body(new beams in doors to protect in a accident), Revised front suspension with bigger spindles, Bigger bolt pattern wheels w/ disc brakes ect. The later cars are better- Look up the #'s more 74 dusters sold than any other year
