Outside The Barn: 1972 Plymouth Duster 340

Driving Project: 1960 Plymouth Fury Convertible

By 1960, the automotive design landscape was shifting, and yesterday’s “must-have” feature was all but consigned to the pages of history. Such was the case with the enormous fins that had dominated the late 1950s. Manufacturers moved to a… more»

1 of 222? 1970 Plymouth Road Runner

Other than the Pontiac GTO, no muscle car may have drawn more attention than the Plymouth Road Runner. With its gimmicky play on the Warner Brothers cartoon characters, it was immediately popular. 1968 sales equaled 44,600 units, with 84,400… more»

Parked 38 Years: Cheap 1972 Plymouth Duster

The seller says that this 1972 Plymouth Duster only spent a dozen years on the road, or more accurately, that it has been parked since 1984. That’s a fair amount of rust for only a dozen years, but depending… more»

In-Violet Project: 1970 Plymouth Duster 340

Plymouth’s 1960s compact, the Valiant, was a solid automobile, but it lacked pizzaz. So, Chrysler went about changing that image by creating the Duster in 1970. Though still a Valiant underneath, the fastback body was all-new from the windshield… more»

B-Body Beauty: 1971 Plymouth Satellite

Beginning in 1965, the Satellite became the upscale version of Plymouth’s mid-size car, the Belvedere. As was the case with all of Chrysler’s B-bodied intermediates, a rework in 1971 gave the cars “fuselage” styling along the lines of the… more»

Vintage Shop Truck: 1941 Plymouth Pickup
