Help Me Understand Why

there is such a shortage and scarcity of good, driver quality (or better) Plymouth Dusters, 1970 - 1974. I am fairly new to the A body forum, but I have been looking hard for a Duster or Demon that has not been all boogered up or molested or a former drag strip car, etc. Were these cars produced in such small numbers and used up so quickly that there really is a shortage of these cars out there for sale? Or, are they that popular that the good ones have been taken off the market?

What are your thoughts on this?

I looked 3 years for a Duster. I wanted a pretty solid, decent old car that I could play with. They were either parts cars or somebody had already done their version of resto and wanted big $$$. I finally bought not 1, but 2 in the same year. "74 and '76. Both solid cars, mostly original and complete, 318 and a slant, one a driver and the other needed some small attention. I've done many upgrades to both. This is why when most on this site say blah blah blah when somebody want decent money for a nice Duster, I say "sell me one as nice cheaper"..... and I never get a PM :D Now, I'm close to you and I "might" consider selling one...……
