Looks great! Do you still have your 75 bumper to measure against the 73 bumper? Is the 73 bumper narrower? If not, can you post a pic of the width of the 73 bumper so I can compare it to mine? If there’s no difference in width then I might as well push my 75 bumper in by collapsing the...

Is the width of a 73 Duster front bumper different (narrower) than the width of a 75 Duster front bumper? I get the sense it is but does anyone have a measurement?

From rear window froster and defoggers to build sheets…. This thread has taken a turn…..

Post #43 is exactly what is in my 75 Scamp (except for that seat pattern).

My 75 Scamp has the blower/defogger for the rear window. Unlike the photos posted of the 70 Dart earlier this this thread that shows a duct under the package tray routing the air to a centre vent below the rear window, mine spews the air up right above the motor through a grill (opposite side...

The challenge for Canadians is getting aerosol cans across the border. 10 years ago no problem but now very few will ship it across the line. If you’re close to the border you can have it shipped to a box and then drive over to pick up. But it’s a 14+hr drive from Fort St John to the WA border.

Great write up and it looks good! Off topic but what size BF Goodrich’s are you running the the Duster?

1976 Dodge Dart Light painted J5 (Tropic Green Poly).

I suppose Chrysler started the rotting process by punching drain the hole at the factory. Presuming you have an A body/Mapar, post up yours that wasn’t given the rotting accelerator from the the factory. Battery Tray Mounting

Its the pee hole for when the battery leaks. Nothing to be worried about.

Can you post photos as I’m trying to picture what the problem is? On ‘73 and later plastic uppers on the doors and door card/panels covered everything below. So the doors are sprayed body colour but then covered by plastic and door cards so you don’t actually see paint on the interior of the...

Nu Finish does a decent job at restoring paint but it’s not a wax since there is no ‘wax’ in it. It’s more of a polish or sealant. Do you need a wax or a polish as there is a difference.

As do many, many other websites.

What happens when you Google ‘Mopar fender tag decoder’ and click on one the first few links that come up? You will learn A LOT more about your car knowing what each of those codes are instead of just wondering if your car had a stripes on it.

In a position so the blades are parallel with the base/bottom trim of the windshield?

Can you provide a picture?

MoparLeo rebuilds them!

Yup, a Dart Sport wheel well mouldings are the same regardless of the year (73 to 76). In fact even the Demon (71/72) uses the same wheel well mouldings.

If it’s on an A body Chrysler product, no.

Here’s a shot from the underside of the latch showing cable routing.

Best car cover you use for your mopar?

A fender off ‘70 4 door Valiant would bolt right on too. If the marker lights were the same in 71 then any 71 4 door Valiant fender would bolt right on too. Don’t buy a ‘70/71 Dodge Dart/Demon fender as they have a different wheel opening shape compares to Plymouth.

‘75 has clear turn signal lenses while ‘76 had amber/orange lenses.

Sunroof is a steel panel while a moon roof is a tinted glass panel. Moonroof vs. Sunroof: What Is the Difference Between Them?

I think you’re referring to the Fuel Pacer system which was an option on the ‘75/76 A bodies. It’s fender tag code L73 but that’s also the same code used in ‘71/73 for the fasten seat belt reminder light?

That appears to be a ‘76 Dart. I have a 75 Scamp that had the same rub strips and, as stated above, it’s just held on with adhesive tape. Carefully pull the rub strips off.

Based on what my quaterpanels looked like around the marker lights on my 75 before I restored it, water definitely got in past the foam gasket. There was surface rust around the three holes on each side of the metal, even on the front fenders around the yellow side marker lights. I put a bead...

It’s going to come down to what your mental idea of “not perfect” is before you start the job and what you actually see once the project is painted as being “not perfect”. If the two are the same then you won’t have any issues. However, if they are different, every time you look at the truck...

While on the topic of Feather Duster parts, the aluminum front bumper backing is 26.5lbs lighter than the steel front bumper backing. Sadly the rear bumper is different between the Duster and Valiant so my rear end still carries some extra weight.

I got a new vinyl top for my Scamp 14 years ago and bought it direct from SMS after I received a sample first. It was spot on to what was on the car so I pulled trigger. There must be only one or two sources for older auto fabrics/materials so one is probably being resold? If price isn’t much...
