    radiator upgrade

    I could have posted this in other sections as well. My '75 Duster came with a /6, 904 automatic. I have upgraded the engine to a stock 360 c.i. , with headers as the only upgrade at this time. I believe I need to upgrade the radiator, but does this mean I will need a new radiator support as well?

    Can't unlock truck

    Have a '75 Duster. I believe I damaged my trunk lock. I closed my trunk and now I can't open it up again. The key will go in and out of the tumble ok, the key turns fully with no binding, it just won't unlatch and release the lid. This is a Space Duster version, but the back panel is up and...

    Just joined

    In 1975, my wife and I bought our 1st Duster, a 1973, 318, 3spd. For 5 years we enjoyed that car and both of us always remembered it as one of our favorite vehicles. About 1 week ago, I bought our 2nd Duster, a 1975, 225ci., auto. Not the drivetrain I prefer, and I am sure it is going to be...
