    Hi Men: I've decided to purchase a Flip Top Fuel Cap for my 1971 Duster. I purchased a 1969 Charger Flip Top Fuel Cap, and purchased the Rubber A Body Duster Flip Top Adapter on Ebay. Can you tell me where to get the screws to install this gas cap on my Duster? I would really want to go thru...

    An update on my 1971 Duster from Donniedon

    Thanks. My wife promises to help me load up the pictures. Not so easy for me to send Iphone pictures to this forum. Is there some secret? I have shots when I received the car, at the chassis shop, and engine being taken out, and rebuilt being replaced. Also, as paint is just starting to be...

    An update on my 1971 Duster from Donniedon

    Exterior was a Navy Blue. I call it Dodger Blue, as my Duster so closely resembles it. I had originally asked for B5 Blue, but there was an error at the Paint Shop, and I'm more than happy with the current color.

    An update on my 1971 Duster from Donniedon

    It's been over a two year project, but the car that I purchased in August of 2020, and had delivered by truck from Tn., to my home SoCal, will be ready before Christmas! When the car arrived by truck, and I signed the papers, and the truck left, and while my wife and I looked at the car, my wife...

    During the Rainy Season - I found out my '71 Duster had sprung a leak!

    My Duster is now in the shop of an interior guy to complete project on my Duster that I started 2 years ago! But-I will ask for pictures of the drainage area. I was told, no rust or rot seen. I had foot surgery, that kept me out of commission for a few months. Work was done by mechanic. I...

    During the Rainy Season - I found out my '71 Duster had sprung a leak!

    I wanted to give an update on my waterfall cascading through my dash, and into my 71 Duster whenever it rains. A new rubber seal for the front window was installed , and a new trim was placed over it. Snapped on and sealed GREAT! That was half the problem. I still had water coming in from...

    1971 Plymouth Duster with 3.7 225 Slant six Idles very rough

    67Dart273- You were dead on correct about my Duster's rough idle. The Petronix distributor was installed incorrectly, causing the "Rotor phasing' that you had mentioned. Took me several months to get back to you, as I've had foot surgery, and been out of commission for awhile. I did want to...

    Many, many thanks Joeychgo! I turn 65 tomorrow. I had both feet operated on recently. I'm either in wheelchair or on crutches right now. Hopefully, I will be able to drive my Duster by early June.

    During the Rainy Season - I found out my '71 Duster had sprung a leak!

    Hi guys. Thanks for your suggestions. They were ALL good. I had my wife help me with the water hose test. I had her in the car, with three turkey pans to tch water. I sealed the hood vents first. We had water come in when I ran water over the windshield. I think it's the original rubber...

    During the Rainy Season - I found out my '71 Duster had sprung a leak!

    Well guys-all of you were right. I had my wife in the Duster with 3 large disposable turkey pans. I covered the vents and ran water over the windshield. Water started to fill the pans inside my Duster. My wife yelled, " Shut the water off". I probed a little with a screwdriver and the...

    During the Rainy Season - I found out my '71 Duster had sprung a leak!

    Someone else already mentioned windshield, and it reminded me of the glass guy that placed the front window in after the car was painted. He goofed up on some other weather-stripping I asked him to do. I definitely have to run some water over that windshield. Thanks for the advice-gotta dry...

    During the Rainy Season - I found out my '71 Duster had sprung a leak!

    That's a Cracker Jack of an idea! The guy who put in my front window after the car was painted messed up some other weather-stripping I had him do. I will check that out. Many thanks!

    During the Rainy Season - I found out my '71 Duster had sprung a leak!

    I'm the owner of a '71 Plymouth Duster, and so far- lots of engine work, chassis work and I had car painted. I haven't done the interior yet. Very soon the interior will be in the hands of someone who knows what he's doing. I have a VERY good car cover over My Duster, with plastic over the...

    1971 Plymouth Duster with 3.7 225 Slant six Idles very rough

    I've had my '71 Duster engine rebuilt, as well as the Holley 1 bbl. carburetor. The mechanic I use suggested that I use Pertronix Distributor, and go pointless. It seems ever since, my idle has been very rough. Idles too fast, and really rough. 1.) Electrically- - - completely new wiring...

    I want an inside Hood Release in my '71 Duster. Can't find -'71- only '72-'76. Will they work?

    Wow! I looked through ALL of your pictures. You are quite the Mopar Mechanic! You put most car assembly lines to shame! I'll have to post some pictures of my Duster soon. I don't do the mechanic work. I was hit by a car in my own driveway in April of 2018. A lady wanted to make a...

    I want an inside Hood Release in my '71 Duster. Can't find -'71- only '72-'76. Will they work?

    Hi: I searched and found that "Year One" sells an A Body 1970-76 Hood Release. I had the unpleasant experience of using my Dad's Duster to watch a my younger brother play a High School football while I was in College (1975). I was home for a weekend. My dads last words to me were " Park...

    I want an inside Hood Release in my '71 Duster. Can't find -'71- only '72-'76. Will they work?

    Thanks. I was just hoping that the latches are not too different from '71 to '72. I hate to go through all the work of installation of the cable on the inside, only to find out it will not hook up to the hood latch.

    I want an inside Hood Release in my '71 Duster. Can't find -'71- only '72-'76. Will they work?

    I want an Inside Hood Release for my 1971 Plymouth Duster. After Checking around, I find A Body 1972-'76 Hood Release Cables, with dash mounts, but nothing for a '71. Anyone else have the same problem? Any suggestions? My first Restoration. I'd like to get this right.
