1972 Plymouth Duster review from North America
"One of the great ones!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Occasionally a resistor, and not much more. Inside the front seat and dashpad cracked, but most dusters do.
General comments?
This car is still great, having been a 225 until 1983 and then upgraded to a 318 which came from a 72 duster. Now it has a cracked passenger side manifold which I'll fix this summer.
