Went to church this morning, and was pleasantly surprised when I saw this on my way out. Looked to be in pretty great condition. It seemed to be a decently optioned model, but was still not heavily optioned. I'm assuming it has a 318, if it is as original as it looks. I guess you can't judge a book by its cover, though. Had to leave, so I couldn't wait for the owner to come over. Nevertheless, I was glad to see an original and preserved example of a Duster.

Dat white vinyl top tho.

The interior needed a decent cleaning, but if the car is driven and loved, I guess I could care less.

Most had the 225 Slant 6.

Yes. But, ask yourself. Why would anyone put dual exhaust tips on a Slant 6 Duster?

I know this. I'm not saying its all original. I was just saying that it looked the part. That was said in the post. My point is that, if it had a 318 (or any V8, for that matter, I can't be certain that it was the original powerplant), it would be much more likely to have dual exhaust added on. If it were a Slant 6, I really don't think that it would be added.
