Wheel Base Question

[moparmarkk]

Do Dusters and Dart Sports have the same wheel base? thanks mark

 

[junkyardhero]

yeah, they're both 108"

The are the same shell and doors. The only major things different are the tail light panel, the front fenders / grill and bumpers. All A body doors from 67 to 76 are the same..

are you sure about that on the doors? i thought that the cudas have a different profile on the leading edge?

I know that at some point they changed both the fly window and location of interior door handle. Like 71 ?

 

[H22A4]

Door handle location changed for 73 and onwards as plastic sills were added.

 

[Professor Fate]

Door lock positions changed in '69.
Door side impact beams appeared somewhere around '73 or '74.
Barracudas aren't even close to Darts/Dusters/Valiants.
Not to mention the vent windows... too many variances to get into here. Suffice it to say the doors are NOT all the same.
OP: Yes, the wheelbase is the same.

The door’s outer sheet metal other than outer handle reinforced was the same. Glass, guts and even angle of the glass was different between Dart (almost straight up and down) to Duster / Demon (glass curved heavy to meet the roof line.)

IIRC
The 2-door Scamps/Valiants, were also 108s?

No they are 111 as they were also made as 4 doors and need the length for exit / entry.
