JUNKYARD PLYMOUTH GETS A NEW HOME! 

I'm glad they have people like you that save these cars. Please make some more new videos

Dylan, I'm very pleased that with the Duster.You are doing the work to it that makes sense to do. Upgrading the brakes, some inexpensive cosmetic and headliner work is the way to enjoy such a clean foundation of an old car. You'll have a decent, reliable piece of automotive history to come. Keep it up and we'll see you soon.

Had a Butterscotch colored 71 Demon. Some of my favorite cars those A body Mopars. Unfortunately on the Gulf Coast rust was a huge problem no matter what “rust proof” measures were taken. That slant 6 and 727 torqueflite were just incredible. Still have my 67 Belvedere. It’s a 273 and strong as ever. Sad to see the donor Duster here was so far gone, but glad you’re making excellent use of her. Nice work

Lol That car is still in better shape then any one of that year in New York. You are lucky to have so many nice old cars out there to find.

Be sure to save the drum brake parts (backing plates) from the 7.25 rear. You can re-use them to upgrade an A-Body 8-3/4 to large bolt with new axles of course.

Good luck with the resto. I bought a 73 Duster 340 for $1,400 from the original owner...but that was back in 1980 and still have it.

1972 Plymouth Duster with the factory high performance 340 is my favorite. The 1979 Dodge Power Wagon because that is the only year with separate high and low beams.

I'm glad to see someone young showing an interest in Mopars. Good luck, Dylan!

OMG this was epic nostalgia for me. My very first car was a metallic brown '73 Ply. Duster that came with a 318 V-8 loved that car !! Thanks for this video!

Love your videos.just noticed duster has a tow package 😁 nice

its nice to see that old car getting a new home after years of sitting its sad to see old cars being abandoned

Sorry for missing your latest videos... It looks Great, im Glad that you could get one to get a few parts off of, R.I.P Duster. Thanks for the headliner tip, i think my headliners have asbestos in them! I wish I had cash and id buy those rallyes from you Friend. I need a set for my Satellite but i haven't got a dime to my name as of now. :( Congrats to the Max Wedge at the end, ill be sure to be on time for your next videos, Thanks!

very cool - thanks for sharing!!

Very unusual Duster , usually after 73 , most A- bodies , if they had a /6 then they had drum brakes and if it was a V-8 then it had disc brakes. Also if anyone else needs some 14 X 5.5 big bolt ralley wheels , contact Dylan and he can let me know to bring some to the Nashville Mopar show the wheels will be cheap.....

Maybe the most-hammered Duster in the world; looks like its 100 years old!!

Hope you saved the original radio! Those should have an 8 track player in it! ^^

Dylan, you can apply fiberglass resin directly on to a clean fiber headliner panel to repair and stiffen it up. I did one of mine last weekend. My Mopar are eighties and nineties. The headliners are made from the same stuff, looks like.

My first car ('72 Duster) was somewhere between the two in condition... Might want to save the hood hinges; from what I've read, mine weren't only ones that bowed outward, scraping up the fender, leading to even more rust... The paint looks pretty god on yours. I'd suggest going over it with Meguiar's M7 "Show Car Glaze," then maybe "Ultimate Compound," and it might be ready for some good wax. Single-stage paint has a lot of life in it; just gotta keep after it. Just the trim parts alone from the parts car are probably worth more than what you paid, considering a lot isn't even going to show up in the aftermarket... Matching lock set - if you have the keys... They don't need to be mint for a "driver;" they just need to be THERE. Would like to see what ImpactJunky below could do with the parts car. Could be an interesting challenge.

I had a 1973 1/2 bought in April of 74 Plymouth Duster twister with the 318 NEW..They were having a really hard time selling cars that year. And they offered a $300.00 Chrysler rebate on the Duster at the time. The sticker was 3,300 and with the rebate and 100.00 extra bucks off I drove away for 2900. Mel Wolf Chrysler on Western in Chicago. I did a suspension upgrade on it added a leaf spring. And was running E 70's on it at the time. You going to see that there is a off set of two inches in width between the front and rear..With the front actually being wider that the rear. So you could run G70's rear and E 70's (Biggest tire at the time you could put in the front of the Duster) and then it would really handled great. Plus it gave a super straight look to the car.. The G;s Rear to E;s front then matching width..

My first car was a new 1970 red Plymouth Duster with a 340 in it. Car payment was $108.36 for 2 years and the insurance for it was $78 a month. I was 16. Next car was a 1972 Plymouth Duster with a 225 slant 6 in it Insurance payments went down to $24 a month. I traded it for a new 1976 Chrysler Cordoba with a POS 340 lean burn that burned out at 42K miles.

Owned the ‘73 Duster (Twister edition in Blue, with 318). Gone in 1980, when oil sump broke. Mechanic bought for body (racing) and 318 was headed for a 340 rebuild.

Back in 1989, I nearly bought a 74 duster...near Ukiah, CA....for $200. Its entire driver's side was crushed in, & I didn't want to chance the possibility of frame damage...it was a slant six car....too far gone for my level of skill fixing cars...that'd be about nothing....for what it's worth, I have always found the 70 Duster an incredibly sharp looking car...something about being a kid & seeing those slitted taillights on a Gold Duster in front of us...man, I never stood a chance!

This is awesome I wanna see more!😀😀😀

Your dad's pretty cool. Mine would have been like "what do you want that piece of junk for"

To Brian Taylor with the Featured 63 Dodge, Great Job ! I just got my 3rd Mopar wagon last night. It's a 63 Plymouth Fury wagon, and I am converting it to a 2 door too.

bumpers still shining,awesome

get the high quality thin superglue, and some baking soda. You can fix a lot of things with it. Baking soda is not only a filler, it reacts with the glue to cause it to dry almost instantly, and dry very strong and very hard. Once you've done that you can sand, shape and paint the glue/soda mix. If you'r a bit clever with making molds, you could have made a replacement for that broken part in the grill and not had to buy the rust bucket.

Tip, wd40 on plastic parts and allowed to set a while will rejuvenate them.

Nice job!👍

You should swap the rear as well so you have the same bolt pattern all around. It shouldn't take long. I have done similar cars in two to three hours, plus you when you put your old rear in the parts car you just have to install enough to move it around.

I had a 74 and a 75 back in the 80’s both long gone but still finding parts in mom’s basement ;-)

nice paint job on the light bulbs :D

Back in the day......I removed the head liner in my duster and I just bought some paint and painted the head liner. I used several cans of paint and let it dry between coats. The new owner never knew the difference when I sold it years later.

You framed the Married with Children part so perfectly.

Nice pool!

Have you ever thought about cutting off the front end where the fire wall is and turning it into a carbaque. A fancy car barbaque. Trashing the rear but keeping the front end.

Nice show love dusters especially in your color or bahama yellow.

Lol. I have the same problem. That's one of the reasons I need to build a bigger sbop

Nice job on that grille that's cool that the parts duster has black Interior that sucks that you did all that work on that cardboard piece to find out it was junk too bad they did not have the cardboard roof liners like they did in the late 70's on the Aspen and Volaré cars

Good vid. TFS

Good buy for the parts.

Dango wasp nest in the right rear fender

Man I hope you didn’t mess up those rallye wheels. They’d look nice reconditioned and put on your Gold Duster.

I just bought some 14inch rally wheels for my Duster I'm a disc brake swap I have the booster Spindles.

lets see what it does with battery and quick start!! lets see it kick over just for the channel

Where I'm from we had a lot of Dusters that looked like that....In 1980.

Looks good Dylan!!

You have a good eye for parts! The wheels and the big bolt pattern/brakes are WHY you bought the crappy-looking car. You are a smart Dude. I can see why you explained the reasons that you saved that part for last. (Thumbs up!) Good story. We will never doubt you again. I really enjoyed the video!!!!!!!!!!!!! Perhaps your next video will include the modifications to your other Duster and in the end,see that POS go away,Sir.

I see you got a swepty back there nice I got a 66

I did the same thing with the headliner on my 86 dodge ram, the foam is like sand and hurts just as bad when it gets in your eyes

Just found you channel watched one video and subscribe!! Keep it up!

You remind me of me at youe age ! Keep goin'....The Oldodger ! (that's me !)

When you winch, its not a bad idea to lay a heavy blanket over that cable, so if it breaks while under tension, it doesn't fly back like a steel whip. Just sayin'

Man i LOVE dusters. Every time i se one its too much

Cool, I have a 73 Duster like your parts car.. with tan interior been sitting since 87.. it's now just a parts car as the suspension in the front / uni body is rotted and quarters and floors / trunk floor. I'm hoping to find another car and use mine as parts..

I’m interested in the bumpers and bumper mounts if they are still available.

Aww I thought you were gonna save it not use it as a parts car. But all and all great video!

@Dylan McCool Nice Plymouth Ruster lol, seriously though please don't junk this thing. I'm a Mopar guy and I do paint and body for a living and I could actually save that car. I'm working on a 73 Mustang on my channel that's way worse than this. By the way, I love seeing you and your dad go pick up old cars just like me and my dad do. You just earned a sub.

You found Al Bundy's Dodge

thats cool, least you can salvage some stuff off it, even if its in terrible shape. bumpers look pretty good too- y savin them as well? 👍

the bumpers on the scrapper Duster look better than the ones on your good Duster

Poor old gal limped on that trailer with destination new life ahead of her.

drop a 318 4 barrel in your good ride and it will do burn outs all day haha

Bought a Plymouth duster in 1988 for $600. Wished I still had it.

All would be proud

everything can be saved.. they are soooooooooo rare and expensive... sandblast and rebuild the whole thing.. with matching numbers slant 6

was that a slant 6 motor in the old beater? They can be fixed and run and run, then fixed and run again

wow i love that car like a police car in terminator 1

Hey Dylan. Nice work on the grille! Can't wait for the next vid! Listen, I could really use your help. Thankfully, but also unfortunately, there are no salvage yards in my are that have old mopars in them. I have scoured the internet, and cannot find what I need. I have a '74 Trailduster, and I replaced the ford bench seat with factory buckets. I need the passenger seat release mechanism. Any help would be much appreciated! Kepp the vids coming, can't wait to see what's next!

That car is rough ... but parts cars are great to have ....

do you have a 1950 gmc 100 pickup truck because i have been hunting for one for a few years now

That's one ropey Duster but at least it gets to live on as parts to keep other cars rolling. It doesn't look like it's been changed much from original (to my eye, I'm by no means an expert) which would suggest it didn't have many owners before it ended up in the junk yard. That type of body "repair" was not at all uncommon in the '70s and well into the '80s, I've seen that kind of thing quite a few times, a friend of mine even had the rear wing/fender/quarter panel fall off one of his cars on the motorway because the filler/bondo had all dried out and lost it sticking power. Those foam over board head linings are a total disaster once they get a few years old, there are plenty of old cars around that had the vinyl head lining hung on bows and the head linings are still fit to be reused even in a restored car but the foam and board ones (which just about everything has these days) are just junk before they get to twenty years old. The foam just doesn't stand up to the temperature changes and moisture inside the vehicle and it breaks down and then the cloth drops down, and it happens to them all eventually. But we're stuck with them because it makes the vehicles cheaper, easier and quicker to build...

the grille looks great, is the chrome better on the bumpers ?

What silver paint did you use for the grille? I have a '71 Dart and the grille is bugging the crap out of me because its all black

That front end looks new....now to get rid of those bumperetts.

Do you sell these once you fix em up enough?

Omg i love this car

I give you it for the married with children song

Rusted out? Are you serious? It's a solid car - friend from up north lol.

i just got a 70 power wagon 4x4 and i have no idea were to get parts help

Harbor freight winch to go along with the other junk

Wait! what was that Orange blur? Was that a Plymouth Barracuda!?

U should restore the plastic bits by using a hydro peroxide

Did you ever end up selling that slant six?

1.How many Cars do you Own? 2,Does your state give you insurance discounts on vehicles 25 yrs old or older??

you can fix it... with allot of work and patience...

How much did you pay the junkyard guy for the spare parts duster?

Don't tell me you managed to sell that old rust bucket!😂🇺🇸🇺🇦

Nice

How much for the driver side tail light and possibly rear bumper

Do a video where you pull all the bondo you can off of it

Too bad the Duster wasn't savable I use to have a Dark Brown 75 until it was totaled

Why does it seem like every severe case of rust starts with a patch of bondo?

Does car have the driver's side regulator?

Worth it just for the rims lol

I need the front seats

I love your videos. I just subscribed to your channel. Watch for Yellow Jacket 🐝 wasps 10:18.

I own a Plymouth

I hope somebody turned that junk one into a race car.

The Engine is a 225 slant six
