In the Spotlight Series this week, we view the 1976 Plymouth Trailduster Sport, an old-school Mopar SUV with a rumbly 440. Pardon the wind at first, it only lasts a few seconds.
The Plymouth Trail Duster is extremely rare. It would be nice to have one right now. It would make a great project vehicle to put a Hemi crate motor in.
Nice Trailduster. I had a 1985 Ramcharger with the 318. Hope the 440 in yours has been messaged a bit. Great engine but down a lot in Hp in that timeframe.
Sounds the same as my 440 ramcharger with the pops. Also the lack of working gauges is the same but my speedo works but I would take a working fuel gauge instead.
1) Thank you for showcasing a Trailduster. I like them more than the Ramcharger but since they are stupid rare, Ramcharger it is! 😂😂 2) Thank you for putting more stock looking wheels and tires on it. 🥰🥰 3) I am with you on the steering wheel. It absolutely does not fit the truck. AT ALL. 🤦🤦 Would any Plymouth steering wheel of the era fit, or are you stuck trying to find a Trailduster specific one? 🤔🤔 4) Not having the gauges work and all of that has to be frustrating. It would be for me. To me, that says the previous owner was either lazy or cheap...or both. Hopefully you are able to get them all working soon! 🙂🙂 And yes, I am jealous! I want it! 🥰🥰😄😄
For the steering wheel, I think that any Dodge pickup or Ramcharger wheel would also fit. The key is finding one that looks nice enough to match the rest of the vehicle.
